Leechweeds

Leechweeds are a species of carnivorous plant that lives on Vanaheim.
==History==
Leechweeds lived in the swamps of Vanaheim. While Thor was trapped on Vanaheim, he attempted to search for a power core for the Vanir interface. His search was interrupted by Leechweeds coming out of the water and attacking him, although Thor destroyed them each time.
Thor later pushed a pile of Leechweeds into the water to attract a Mire Giant, giving him a chance to jump onto the skiff the troll was pulling. As Thor rode down the river, Skraelings put a Leechweed in the river in order to attack Thor and the Mire Giant, but it was destroyed as well. A Rock Troll later did the same to the Giant in order to attack it and prevent Thor from reaching Frostgrinder.Thor: God of Thunder
==Characteristic Traits==
Leechweeds are a plant species with a red flower, although the flower has spikes as well as the stem. Leechweeds live underwater mostly, until something they want to eat approaches it, when it rises above the water and stretches its long stem to attack it. They are susceptible to heavy hits from a blunt object, such as Mjølnir. Skraelings are able to plant Leechweeds in aquatic environments and they will be able to instantly take root and survive.
