Snipevine

Snipevines are enormous members of the nature family that utilize dazzling colours and pleasant scents to lure prey into their gaping maws, akin to a rafflesia flower that's ditched it's foul funk.

Trivia

• The monster's colouration of gold, silver, and purple represents the wealth and power implied through it's Japanese name, royal bloom. The purple represents tyrian purple, a dye notorious for being expensive to produce and became associated with royal families who could afford the high labour fee.
