Twig Blight

Basic Information:
Twig blights can root in soil, which they do when living prey are scarce. While rooted, they resemble woody shrubs. When it pulls its roots free of the ground to move, a twig blight's branches twist together to form a humanoid-looking body with a head and limbs. Twig blights seek out campsites and watering holes, rooting there to set up ambushes for potential victims coming to drink or rest. Huddled together in groups, twig blights blend in with an area's natural vegetation or with piles of debris or firewood. Given how dry they are, twig blights are particularly susceptible to fire.
Twig blights are the smallest type of blights, resembling humanoid, leafless shrubs, complete with limbs and a head. They can root themselves in soil, becoming indistinguishable from regular, dead shrubs. Groups of rooted twig blights can resemble piles of firewood or debris. They can see up to 60 feet (18.2 meters) in front of them, but are blind to anything beyond that radius.
