Inupalmahuida<\/strong>
What at first appeared to be a tangle of dead wood and broken branches begins to move, revealing a spiny monster with a bestial face and thick, bark-like skin.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Known by a variety of names such as \u201ctree beasts\u201d, \u201csnag prowlers\u201d and \u201cwood devils\u201d, the bestial inulpamahuidas are gargoyle-like creatures that prowl the deepest and most primal forests. They enjoy the company of fey and animals, but are fiercely territorial when it comes to humanoids and any of the trappings of civilization. Those that seek to log or hunt in the woods haunted by Inulpamahuidas never return, instead supplementing the forest with their own bodies transformed into plant life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inulpamahuidas are sociable creatures among themselves, and form packs that dwell in the tops of immense trees. Inulpamahuidas rarely touch the ground if they can help it, preferring to remain in the canopy to pounce upon the heads of unsuspecting humanoids. Their venomous claws contain a supernatural toxin that slowly lignifies it victims, turning flesh into wood and skin into bark with alarming speed. A creature immobilized by this toxin takes root and transforms fully into a tree of a species native to the area and is beyond saving except with powerful magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inulpamahuidas reproduce in a manner befitting their hybrid nature between animal and plant. They are capable of flowering, although the flowers smell more like rotting meat than a sweet perfume, and pollen is carried from one flowering inulpamahuida to another by beetles or flies. The female inulpamahuida\u2019s flower then transforms into a leathery fruit, which the parent buries in rich soil. The young inulpamahuida grows into a thorny bush and remains immobile for up to five years, whereupon it uproots itself and begins its mobile life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An inulpamahuida stands four feet tall at the shoulder and stands about six or seven feet tall when rearing upright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
