FlankerSnareLANDfeyplant

"True" twigjacks, as they consider themselves, are found in wild forests alongside the fey they idolize. Maladjusted forest denizens, twigjacks form from the cruel and prankish combination of fey and the very woods in which they reside. A twigjack's body is made up of prickly brambles woven with vines. Shaggy, mossy growth, not unlike hair, tops a twigjack's head. Its mouth is just a canyon of splintered and broken sticks bisecting its face. Leaves and sprigs of new growth randomly sprout from

Abilities

Bramble Jump (plant, primal, teleportation, wood) — When the twigjack is in undergrowth, it can instantly teleport to a square of undergrowth within 60 feet. This movement doesn't trigger reactions.
Splinter Spray — The twigjack sprays a barrage of splinters and brambles from its body that deals 3d6 piercing damage in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in the area must attempt a DC 18 Reflex save. The twigjack can't use Splinter Spray again for 1d4 rounds.
