Description
Abyssal Tendrils are vicious creatures that sprout out of the ground in the outer plane of the Abyss. They send out tentacles to grab victims and bring them in near the central mouth where they are eaten. They come in a variety of sizes from a small weed to a massive tree reaching 5 meters tall. Custom AI scripting allows the coordination of the several creatures and placeables which act as a single entity. Interesting optional accessory items based on the tendrils are included as well: Fried Tendrils, Abyssal Tendril Bulb, Shovel of the Abyss, Oil of Slipperiness, Scroll of Tendril Might, Cloak of Tendrils, and Expeditiom Journal on Abyssal Tendrils, and the DM's Reference Guide to Abyssal Tendrils. Also included is a demo module exhibiting the various sizes of Abyssal Tendrils as well as the accessory items. This is done without hakpacks.
Why is this in the form of an erf file instead of a hak?? :-/
It looks really great though. Brilliant work indeed!

Brilliant idea and very easy to use. I like the little details you added, like the fried tendrils, guide books and bulb items. People like you mean noobs like me can still build interesting mods! Thank you! _________________________ ~

A little too straight-edged, but other than that, nice shadow work. _________________________ Steve's Characters - please don't forget to vote on them if you play them.

They're cool, yes, but I get this feeling that you didnt make them. A friend of mine had been using these Tendrils way before they were put on the vault.

So much fun to add to a module. What a hoot the first time your pc gets snatched up and dragged screaming into the maw.

These are quite nice, although they bring low end systems to a bit of a halt.

This is a fantastic script/creature. Definitely a challenge for a party in the teen ranges, and fun to throw at them.

This is damn good man! I'm making a module using them right now.

Very, very very good! The tree's very strong as well. I took it on with an Iron Golem Polymorph and it murdered it! Great models, too.

Excellent work, but extremely resource intensive in the way it spawns off new critters. It crashed game twice.
