The vine lasher attacks in groups, attempting to immobilize prey and slowly tear a creature to pieces. What first appears to be a simple shrub suddenly stirs to life.

Abilities

Tremorsense (Imprecise) 30 feet — Tremorsense allows a monster to feel the vibrations through a solid surface caused by movement. It is an imprecise sense with a limited range (listed in the ability). Tremorsense functions only if the monster is on the same surface as the subject, and only if the subject is moving along (or burrowing through) the surface.
Light Hold — A creature Grabbed by a vine lasher is not immobilized, but the grabbed creature's space and every adjacent square use the rules for difficult terrain. If the creature moves, the vine lasher moves with it, always keeping the grabbed creature within 10 feet of itself.

If two or more vine lashers have a creature grabbed in this way, then the target's space and adjacent square instead use the rules for greater difficult terrain.
Grab

WORKS WELL WITH

CrasherLANDA hard hitter capitalizes on a foe that's Grabbed and stuck in difficult terrain, unable to reposition.
SniperLANDA ranged attacker gets a stationary, easy target once the Grab locks a foe and its allies in difficult terrain.
AnvilLANDA front-line tank keeps other foes occupied while this ambush plant pins a single target.

PUNISHES

✖ clumping✖ melee reliance
Avoid stacking multiple Snares; only one Grab is needed to lock down a target's movement.
