Description
Constrict (Ex): An assassin vine deals +7 points of damage with a successful grapple attack (max Large).

Entangle (Su): An assassin vine can animate plants within 30 feet of itself as a free action to entangle its foes (DC 13 partial).

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, an assassin vine must hit with its slam attack.

It can then attempt a grapple attack as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.

If it succeeds on the grapple attack, it establishes a hold and constricts its target.

Blindsight (Ex): Assassin vines have no visual organs but can ascertain all foes within 30 feet using sound, scent, and vibration.

Camouflage (Ex): Since an assassin vine looks like a normal plant when at rest, it takes a DC 20 Spot check to notice it before it attacks.

Anyone with ranks in Survival or Knowledge (nature) can use one of those skills instead of Perception to notice the plant. Dwarves can use stonecunning to notice the subterranean version.
