Hit: 4 (1d6 + 2) bludgeoning damage, plus 10 (3d6) poison damage, and a Medium or smaller target is grappled (escape DC 11). Thus, a moss blight, that acts a bit like an ooze and/or rug of smothering. I’m planning to introduce my low-level party to the fire ivy and pollen blights within our next few sessions.
