Editing Hortus (section)

===PC Stats===
Ability Modifiers: +2 Str, +2 Con, -2 Cha

Hit Points: 6

Size and Type: Medium plant.

Atmospheric Alteration: As a move action while in atmosphere, a hortus can spend 1 Resolve Point to release a mix of spores into the air. When it uses this ability, the hortus chooses a type of saving throw (Fortitude, Reflex, or Will) and whether to enhance or penalize that save. If it enhances, creatures within 20 feet gain a +2 enhancement bonus to saving throws of the chosen type for 1d4 rounds; if it penalizes, creatures within 20 feet take a –1 penalty to saving throws of the chosen type for 1d4 rounds. A creature can attempt a Fortitude save before the bonus or penalty is applied to ignore this effect. The save DC is equal to 10 + half the hortus’s level + its Constitution modifier. This is an inhaled poison effect.

Hortus Senses: Hortuses have low-light vision.

Limited Plant Benefits: Despite being plant creatures, hortuses don’t gain the standard immunities associated with creatures of the plant type. Instead, they gain a +2 racial bonus to saving throws against mind-affecting effects, paralysis, poison, polymorph, sleep, and stunning effects, unless the effect specifies that it is effective against plants.

Slightly Poisonous: A creature that hits a hortus with a bite attack must succeed at a Fortitude save or become sickened for 1d4 rounds. The save DC is equal to 10 + half the hortus’s level + its Constitution modifier.

Spongy Form: A hortus has damage reduction 5/slashing; this stacks with one other source of damage reduction.
