Description (Initial Observations): Originally this creature was a small potted houseplant which was left here by a frightened tourist during the evacuation of the starport. When the cloud of radioactive dust swept over the area, it caused the plant to mutate. Over the years the plant has kept the starport pest-free by devouring all intruders.

Reactions: No known interactions

Behavior: When characters open the door to this room they will be attacked immediately by the monster's eight constricting vines. Each limb will take 10 points of damage before being severed. When four or more vines have been severed, the mutant plant will start flinging explosive seed pods at the party. Each pod may be thrown up to 20 meters, exploding on contact for 5d6 points of damage in a two-meter radius. The plant has only 10 pods.

Repair and Healing: Behavior not recorded
