A bog stalker is both beast and plant, due to its creation. Typically, a bog stalker is created by a Swamp Witch, who captures animals and forces her malformed plants to grow inside the animal. Thus, the bog stalker is formed and ready to defend its witch from intruders. Bog stalkers are usually formed with bamboo or other tree plants for legs, and stand 8 or more feet tall. Bog stalkers are considered kings of the swamp and rarely if ever attack alone. |
