===Skullroot===
The Skullroot (Osmunda meloidogyne) [Osmunda is the name that a lot of ferns that grow Fiddlehead Ferns, which is actually a curly green, take. I thought it appropriate due to the Skullroots connection to the Curly-Q line. The Meloidogyne is based from the Root-Knot Nematode what the Skullroot was originally based on as a parasite. Both add into the Skullroots evolution it very subtle ways.]is an exclusively female specie that relies heavily on the Asparagus Trees for their continued survival as a specie. The parasites have thus developed a relationship with the tree that is putting them in the place of a glorified walking fruit that regurgitates the seedlings, and young, to continue the Equatorial Jungles Asparagus Trees line alive and fruitful. The young Skullroot spends three cycles(3 years) within the Resin Packets that the Asparagus Trees produce in order to grow to their maximum size of 2'9" and capture the maximum amount of Tadseeds (male sperms) for future usage. When it has reached maturity the Skullroot is expelled from the Resin Packet and crawls down the side of the tall trees with its 5 tendrils and 2 arms. Once reaching the ground it begins its first task, to begin reproducing. Once finished the Skullroot travels and once deeming a spot acceptable will dig a spot and essentially "throw-up" its young with the seedlings to ensure mutual continued survival. The Skullroots do this for the next 3 to 4 years, eating small bugs to help it produce more Resin, its lifeblood and throwing up the remains as fertilizer. When the Skullroot has spit up its final off spring it will die within the next 2 weeks and likely finds a spot and digs in its tendrils thus allowing the plant on its head to take over and grow a new Asparagus Tree.

Facts:
Skullroots do not hear, they rely heavily on camouflage and the dark of the underbrush.

Skullroots are incredibly high in protein due to their resin blood, and thus a lovely snack for predators.

Skullroots are incredibly terrotorial and will kill others on site to ensure their own lineages continue.
 
Tadseeds are glorified sperm cells that once attached to the Skullroot fuse into her body until only their gonads remain. The have highly functional eyes that hep the Skullroot develop their 4 easier and quicker.
