Creeping Cone Swarm
Creature 10 (rare) — elemental, mutant, plant, swarm, wood
Caustic fluid seeps out from the scales of these sluglike cones, which spawn in unsuspecting hosts until they're mature enough to seek a place to root. Moving in writhing swarms that seek a habitat flush with prey, creeping cones spread Ayrzul's Blight when destroyed, but leaving them to grow unchecked poses a great risk to other creatures. The Plane of Wood contains many unique ecosystems formed around species of wondrous trees; when Ayrzul's Blight mutates one of these trees rather than killin

Blight Burst (acid, primal) —
Jagged Scales (primal) — The creeping cones shake off a barrage of jagged, stony scales. Each creature in a 10-foot burst within 30 feet of the swarm takes 2d12+7 slashing damage (DC 29 Reflex save).
Pummeling Lurches — Each enemy in the swarm's space takes 6d6 bludgeoning damage (DC 29 Fortitude save). A creature that fails its save falls Prone.
Putrid Spores (aura, poison, primal) — 30 feet.
A creature entering the aura must succeed at a DC 26 Fortitude save or become Sickened 1 until the end of its turn (Sickened 2 on a critical failure).
While within the aura, an affected creature takes a –2 circumstance penalty to recover from the sickened condition. A creature that succeeds at its save is temporarily immune for 1 minute.
