Plant Monsters?

Dark_Ansem

No chance to see treants and other hostile vegetation in future content?

Sylvus_Moonbow

There is custom content available. DLA made a treant

Dark_Ansem

I didn't know that, thanks, but the mechanisms for it (such as archetype or relevant feats) are still missing from the game!

DerpCity

You are correct that the Type is missing, and I agree it should be added in the future. For now, though, you can use the Vermin Class to replicate the Plant Class, as they are functionally identical (8 hit points/level, 3/4 BAB/level, good Fortitude save) outside of immunities, which are handled by hides anyway, and if you use the CEP the Plant type was added, but if you aren't using that then the Plant domain can turn Vermin, so using the Vermin type as well could be a good idea.

Spent alot of time trying to figure out the search on the vault but here is what I came up with and they are all different.

I'd like to see them added, especially shambling mounds.

Fardragon

Vegepygmies. Gotta have them.

TarotRedhand

After a quick look I couldn't find either shambling mounds or vegepygmies. I did find African Carnivorous plants as part of this. As part of an earlier ccc there are Forrestals, Morbols, a Wild Woods Troll and a skinmeshed Dryad. There are also scripts to enable Plant Race, Class, and 2da Changes (for quick plant creatures). There's other plant related stuff in there. Finally there's this single author collection from 2004 that has some plant based monsters included.

Found as I say after a very quick look.

Also found Shrieker and Violet fungus, Kelpie (supposed to be seaweed based) and Twig Blights.

Hey don't judge me LOL I was still learning, I needed the money LOL. Dam I need go back and make better versions of those. I have added plant race to my base though and will go back and make some plant monsters(better).

Grymlorde

Project Q has various plant creatures (treant, shambling mound, fungous creatures) and a new "race" called plant.

TheAmethystDragon

Another one for you:
Forest Dragon (plant shaped like a dragon)
