Plantimal

Intro 🧬 Overview: The Plantimal is a stealthy and unusual variegated latex beast found in the Greenhouse area of Changed: Special Edition. As a member of the Gardener Latex group, it blends the characteristics of plant life with animalistic latex forms, creating a deceptive and dangerous predator. 🎨 Appearance: Body: Covered in camouflage-colored fluffy fur, designed to mimic the surrounding greenery. Eyes: Soft greenish-beige eyes, giving it a calm, plant-like stare. Tail: Ends in a distinct leaf-like structure, which is wattle-colored — matching its eyes. Build: Animalistic in shape but with vague, hard-to-identify features. This makes the Plantimal appear both familiar and alien at once. Behavioral Camouflage: Its form and coloring allow it to hide almost perfectly among foliage, making it easy to miss until it's too late. 🧠 Behavior: The Plantimal is passive until approached, at which point it will ambush the human. Its transfurring method is described as being similar to a Venus flytrap: quick, enveloping, and inescapable. It does not chase; rather, it relies on stealth and surprise. 🌿 Transfurring Process: When triggered, the Plantimal captures the human in a soft, fluid motion, using its tail and latex to restrain them. The process is described as gentle but completely overwhelming, leading to full transformation. The transformed result is not clearly shown but implied to be part of the greenhouse’s ecosystem — perhaps even another plantimal. 🧪 Lore Context: The Plantimal is one of several latex creatures that were the result of biological experiments designed to stop the Pale Virus. It's part of the Light Latex family, more specifically a Variegated branch — meaning it’s a hybrid with more variation in traits. Designed for stealth and passive control, it is more naturalistic than aggressive. 💡 Fun Fact: Unlike most latex beasts that actively pursue the protagonist, the Plantimal is more like a natural trap — a sentient part of the environment,
