Unlike dandelions, countefloras do not have separate flowering and seeding stages, and can release their intoxicating seedpods as long as their bracts are open. Countefloras exhibit a strange intellect and communicate with one another by releasing invisible pheromones into the air. Alone, a desperate counteflora may ally with another creature if it is offered water or fertile soil. Contrary to popular belief, countefloras absorb sunlight for sustenance; they do not attack other creatures to feast upon them. Rather, the reason countefloras go to such lengths to kill their opponents is to fertilize the surrounding soil and create a nutrient-rich environment for their seedpods. **__Recall Knowledge - Plant__ (__Nature__)**: DC 27' hp: 220 hp_misc: null immunities: - poison level: 10 melee_attacks: - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 2d6+9 type: slashing name: vines plus_damage: null to_hit: 21 traits: - agile - action_cost: One Action damage: formula: 3d10+9 type: bludgeoning name: head plus_damage: null to_hit: 23 traits: - reach 10 feet - sweep name: Counteflora perception: 18 ranged_attacks: null saves: fort: 22 fort_misc: null misc: null ref: 20 ref_misc: null will: 14 will_misc: null senses: - tremorsense (imprecise) 60 feet size: Large skills: - bonus: 23 misc: null name: Athletics - bonus: 20 misc: +24 in jungles and flower fields name: Stealth sources: - abbr: 'Pathfinder #153: Life''s Long Shadow' page_start: '78' page_stop: null speed: - amount: 25 misc: null type: Land spell_lists: null traits: - Plant weaknesses: - amount: 10 misc: null type: cold - amount: 10 misc: null type: fire
