Spawning Myth

The snatcher is a large plant that snatches and devours prey.

Physiology

The snatcher is made up of a large bulb with a serrated beak at the top. It has several clawed tentacles for grasping and lowering prey into its beaked jaws, which will then crush and mangle the prey before it's swallowed down into its digestive sac.

Habitat

The snatcher grows primarily in dense vegetation where it can blend in with other plants.

-|physiology=The plant senses movement nearby and will lash out with its claw-like tendrils. If it manages to grab onto a victim of the right size it will hoist them into the air and drop them into the beak at its top. The "beak" is comprised of three petals with serrated edges and thorns inside which will squeeze and grind against prey to tear, shred, and generally render them easier to devour. An opening at the top of the bulb allows the victim's fluids to drain into the plant's bulb, as well as their body once it will fit. The bulb portion can stretch to engulf larger prey as they are digested.
