CARNIVOUROUS PLANTS:

I've uploaded this idea countless times but it always gets taken down for one reason or another. But, whatever. So here it is AGAIN!

The idea goes that depending on the environment you're in, some areas will house carnivorous plants that will become obsticles for the hunter. For example, if the region you're in is a forest-like region you may incounter a modefied Venus Fly-Trap plant. Now, these plants will act as ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS for the hunter during quests. If a hunter gets too close to one of these Fly-Traps, for example, the plant will clamp down on the hunter and limit his/her range of movement to only a few meters away from the plant. This can waist quest time and leave hunters vulnerable to enemy attack. Specifically in this case, a hunter can break free by either using an item like WEED-KILLER or by waiting for the ailment to wear off. You can draw your weapon to fight even if you're trapped, but I'm not sure whether to add that weapons can kill the plants or not. As a bonus, no neopteron monsters would be present in the same area.

Other variations of plants may also inflict status ailments (poison, paralysis, soiled, etc) or may just cause raw damage (cactus spikes). Keep in mind the only time a hunter would be affected is if they came within range of the plant. Once again, THESE PLANTS ARE NOT CONSIDERED MONSTERS!

Feel free to give feedback! XD
