The plant sub-sists entirely on the blood ofliving creatures by draining itout through 3-inch-long, hollow,needle-sharp spikes on its tendrils.Bloodthorns appear as black, desiccated vines withsmall-bladed leaves. Bright red, succulent berries growon the plant continually.The berries produce a fragrant odor that appeals to mostspecies, especially in the deserts where bloodthorns grow. Ifa creature survives a bloodthorn’s attack and steals away afew berries, it discovers its efforts were in vain—the berriesare bitter and provide no sustenance.On rare occasions, a bloodthorn is transplanted onto theMaterial Plane. Such plants usually die in a few days, butsome survive and grow to great size in the wastelands.
