Cold Root

Description
Trees and shrubs destroyed by necrotic energy sometimes rose as cold roots. For all intents and purposes, these creatures were undead plants. A typical cold root resembled a shrub or small tree that lacked leaves. These mindless creatures fought in great packs, seeking to overwhelm trespassers into their dark, wintery woods.

Servants of Vapul. During the Amber Wars, cold roots served the demonic god of ice and undeath, Vapul. The undead plants marched alongside the Anorian elves. Many giant cold roots came dangerously close to crossing the River Mythse Anor (modern day Fairknot) and infecting the Wallingmiotta with their waves of blight. Fortunately, they were driven back by Owezen Aiqua's elves.

Undead Nature. Cold roots did not require air, food, water, or sleep.
