Detection

PerDC 18
StlDC 18 (trained)
InitNone

The bush stands roughly three feet tall with broad, waxy leaves. Between the foliage, dozens of amber-colored bladders pulse slightly with internal pressure, and long, hooked thorns protrude from the central stalks.

Standard Engagement

Trigger

A creature moves into the bush's space or makes a melee strike against it.

Routine

None

Reset

The plant requires 24 hours to regrow its pods and build up enough internal pressure to burst again.

Resin Spray

When triggered, the pods explode in a 10-foot burst. All creatures in the area take 2d6 piercing damage from the hardened thorns and must attempt a DC 18 Reflex save. On a Success, the creature is unaffected by the resin. On a Failure, the creature is Immobilized by the sticky sap. On a Critical Failure, the creature is Immobilized and also Clumsy 1 from the weight and stiffness of the resin. A creature can attempt to Escape (DC 18) to remove the Immobilized condition.

Highly Flammable

If the resin-coated area or the bush itself is targeted by a fire effect, the resin ignites. Any creature currently Immobilized by the resin takes 1d6 fire damage at the start of its turn for 3 rounds or until the resin is washed off with at least a gallon of alcohol or oil.

Discovery

Perception DC 18 (trained) to notice the sticky, fly-covered residue on nearby grass or Nature DC 16 (trained) to identify the specific leaf patterns of an Amberleaf.

Archival Lore

Hunters often plant these near their campsites to act as natural burglar alarms, as the sound of a pod bursting is distinct and loud.
