Snatcher Plant

Setting the Scene:
The moss has been shredded to bits around a particular upright stalk. It does not move or make any indication that it’s seemingly plump and bulbous girth hides anything but the most scrumptious flesh. The coloration on it’s watermelon-speckled body gives the deceptive appearance that inside may lie sweet tasting fluids similar to the humongous aloe plant. So you draw closer, placing a hand against the smooth surface of the spire when-

SUDDENLY!

-the plant snaps you to the ground with a wicked flick of it’s length. You’re fazed, unable to think or move due to the suddenness of the blow. You don’t even feel it trailing around your ankle, tugging you close. That sleek, watermelon spotted exterior opens down a slit which runs along its length to reveal rows of sharp spikes and oozing digestive fluids. As the spines dig into your ankle, the more you struggle the more you’re trapped. Finally it happens…

The Tentacle jabs true, shredding most of your innards and back door with a single thrust into you. As you scream and struggle it’s great knotted body begins to stiffen, rising up into the air and holding you, bleeding, dying, and screaming high into the sky. You painfully bleed to death as it consumes your sweet juices from the inside out.

That is, if a scavenger doesn’t make it to you first.

 

Facts:

 * The tentacle itself is extremely stretchy and tough to break. It can be stretched and tightly tied around things to hold them in place with ease, like rope.
 * The teeth inside are easily dislodged and could be good for tools, but extracting them is tough and tedious as it is very, very easy to get cut by the hundreds of other teeth inside.
 * This plant is a carnivorous, deadly piece of flora. If it senses a living creature nearby, that is around the size range of human or smaller, it will immediately snatch them up as prey.
 * It digests prey by sticking the end of the tentacle through either the ass or mouth, forcing it through to the other side (almost always piercing through the body rather than snaking through organs), and releasing digestive juices.
 * If it cannot find a hole, it will attempt to make one.
 * This digests a creature from the inside out and is extremely, extremely painful.
 * It can be harvested for food and has a salty, mushrooms and steak flavor to it. It is very chewy.
 * It is poisonous if consumed raw. It must be cooked until wiggly like spaghetti noodles.
