Abilities

Tremorsense (Precise in Area A7, Otherwise Imprecise) 60 feet — Tremorsense
Cold Vulnerability (cold) — When exposed to a cold effect, the viper vine is overwhelmed by lethargy, becoming Slowed 1 for 1d4 rounds.
Captivating Pollen (incapacitation, mental, poison) — The viper vine releases a 60-foot emanation of invisible pollen that stays in the air for 5 rounds unless dispersed by a moderate or stronger wind. Each creature that enters or starts its turn in the area must attempt a DC 33 Will save or be captivated. The viper vine can't use Captivating Pollen for 1d4 rounds. **Critical Success** The creature is unaffected and is temporarily immune to Captivating Pollen for 24 hours. **Success** The creature is Sickened 1. **Failure** The creature is Fascinated, and it must spend each of its actions to move closer to the viper vine as expediently as possible while avoiding obvious dangers. If a captivated creature is adjacent to the viper vine, it stays still and doesn't act. It ceases to be fascinated if it's no longer in the pollen aura at the end of its turn. **Critical Failure** As failure, plus the creature is Stupefied 2 for 24 hours.

Grasping Roots — **Critical Success** The target is unaffected. **Success** The target treats the first square of its movement as difficult terrain. **Failure** The target becomes Immobilized by the foliage, ( DC 35). **Critical Failure** As failure but the target also falls Prone.
