Lexicanum Botanica (5e Trap)
Lexicanum Botanica (Trap)
Trap Type: Magical.
This leather-bound tome sits inconspicuously amidst a field of books upon a bookshelf. It has the symbol of a tree drawn upon its front face. It emits a distinct and unmistakeable pine smell out to a range of 120 feet.
Any creature that moves within 30 feet of the lexicanum botanica, or starts its turn within that distance, must make a DC(19) Constitution saving throw. On a failure, the creature is polymorphed into an awakened shrub for 1d4 + 7 days. It may make the saving throw again every 24 hours, ending the effect on a success.
If remove curse or a similar spell is cast on the lexicanum botanica, it ceases becoming a trap, falls directly to the floor, and becomes the wondrous item lexicanum botanica.
