#alraune

This a long one, big statblock

An alraune is a massive plantlike woman, sitting atop a gigantic flower. Elder ones are bound to a certain spot where their flower lays. Alraune can grow up to 15 feet tall once they reach around 200 years of age, however the threat they pose often results in them being cut down before then. They utilize long spiked vines to ensnare creatures, and either drain them of their life or in the case of humanoids they are especially fond of, charm them into doing their bidding.

They reproduce via seeds that require meat, usually dead creatures but the more sadistic ones will turn living creatures into slaves and then used as fertilizer.

The older an alraune grows the more her magical abilities take over her physical prowess; an alraune of any age is capable of deftly fighting using its vines but the older ones simply require anti magics to defeat no matter the opposing forces strength.

Ones that reach this massive stage are almost always from the depths of the abyss themselves, having found or chanced upon a way into the mortal realm. They take root wherever they arrive and begin to turn humanoids and creatures into food to create more alraune, these alraune born in the mortal world are considered native for the purposes of banishment spells while the original one would be sent back to the abyss likely to never return.

Here’s the elder alraune, I considered giving it lair actions but since she can’t move there’s no real point, it might as well always have access to them which is effectively the other younger alraune make the elder much more powerful.

An alraune is a large plantlike woman, with thick petals surrounding her. Large ones are usually bound to a certain spot while the younger ones are able to walk around, so long as they return to their flower before long.

I might make some younger and a matriarch version if this is well received
