Tri-flower frond

|
In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the tri-flower frond is a type of plant creature. Publication history The tri-flower frond first appeared in the original AD&D first edition Monster Manual II (1983). The tri-flower frond appeared in the second edition of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons under the "carnivorous plant" heading in Monstrous Compendium Volume Two (1989), and was reprinted under the "dangerous plant" heading in the Monstrous Manual (1993). Description A tri-flower frond is a plant with 5-8 foot tall deep green stalks topped by trumpet-shaped flowers of vivid orange, bright yellow, and intense red. The orange flower shoots 3-foot long tendrils from its center, and its pollen causes creatures struck to fall into a comatose slumber. The yellow bloom will immediately bend over the sleeping victim and tremble, as this vibration lets loose a shower of sticky enzyme that rots the victim away. The red flower extends tubular 1-foot long tendrils, sinking them into the slumbering victim, first drawing body fluids and then sucking up the residual matter after the enzyme has dissolved the victim's body. Other publishers The tri-flower frond appeared in 2002 in the Tome of Horrors extension for Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition, from publisher Necromancer Games.
