Tangle Weeds

Tangle weeds are innocent-looking plants that have developed a symbiotic relationship with a species of venomous, carrion-eating ants. They are very undistinguished plants, covering a patch about a hex in size, with a lot of long, grasslike leaves that reach no more than knee-high. They are at Vision-4 to spot if there is no carrion around the bushes — otherwise, make a straight Vision roll.
The ants live underground, around the plant’s root system. They form large colonies, enough to fill 5+ hexes in swarms. They usually feed on the corpses of decaying herbivores that have come to eat the tangle weeds.
==Grapple==
The plant will then attempt a takedown, which is resolved by a Contest of ST. At this point, the victim has taken no damage, but the ants are alarmed and swarm from their holes.The tangle weed does not let go of a victim until it ceases struggling. Its grip may be broken at any time by winning a Contest of ST.
==Ant Attack==
The ants will swarm over and bite anyone on the ground — anyone still standing may avoid them by fleeing. Armor does not protect (unless sealed), as the ants get into the armor. A swarm consists of about 1,000 ants and can be dispersed by 10 hits. The ants will not leave the nest area, but will continue biting any unconscious victim until dead.
