Description
She is a demon plant. Her species uses a certain scent to lure in people and consume them. They have a human woman-shaped pistil they use to lure in humans, their preferred prey. Their tendrils can wrap and constrict any moving object nearby. Their nectar has paralyzing properties.
Their method of reproducing is by luring in a human and grafting them to the developing seeds. The seeds are then expelled along with the human corpse, which is mobile by the growth of tendrils that prop it up and move it to a different location. For this reason, they are sometimes known as the "zombie plant."

Morell was sold three seeds by an adventurer passerby. Convinced they were valuable, he began to conduct research. He planted one so he may have a future stock of plants and seeds, and began to experiment. He found that the seeds when boiled served as a potent aphrodisiac and worked as an effective ointment when crushed to a paste. He was not pleased, however, when the seed sprouted into a demonic man-eating plant. She has, however, refused to eat humans because he's raised her. He feeds her monster meat and has named her "Aster."
