Dirge-vaon : An insectivorous plant of giant proportions, the dirge-vaon vine senses when people are nearby and creeps along the ground in their direction. Most manage to avoid contact with the poisonous plant, but the unlikely ones who are tripped by the vine might suffer contact with the tiny teeth-like needles that can inject a fiery poison. Fortunately, most people are too large to be considered a meal, as the spiny, bi-fold leaves cannot consume flesh.
