SoilWeaver Remnant

Adversaries Designed by Shenanigans • Art by FlippityFlip

Adversary overview

A horse-sized, snake-like machine with a rippling segmented body, boring through soil on a ring of whirring circular teeth that crush rock and stone to dust.

It crawls slowly through earth and rock to aerate soil, while its secreted acids revitalize nutrients and allow mycelial networks to prosper into stable growing layers.
