    Entries
    • The taiga yai infuses their power within the plants around them, causing the plants to shoot up and create a protective barrier. The taiga yai gains a +2 circumstance bonus to AC against the triggering attack roll. If the attack misses, the attacker must attempt a 33 Reflex save. On a failed save, the attacker is immobilized for 1 round as the plants grab hold of them; on a critical failure, the attacker is also knocked prone.

    • The taiga yai commands underground plant roots to drag a creature within 60 feet into the earth. The target must succeed at a 35 Fortitude save or be immobilized for 1d4 rounds. After this time, the creature is buried; it is grabbed, begins to suffocate, and takes 4d6 bludgeoning damage each round they remain buried. To escape either while immobilized or grabbed, the creature must succeed at a 35 Escape check or an adjacent ally must succeed at a 33 Athletics check to pull them out.
