====Flora====
*The '''Brainleaf''' - ''Vinea catachanus dominari'': A vegetative carnivore, the Brainleaf is a small, not particularly conspicuous tree able to attach its tendrils to the spine and brain of a person, taking control over their body.
*The '''Breathweed''' - ''Parasitus respirare'': A strange organism that seems to be a mixture between plant and fungi. It grows on the side of tree trunks and resembles a vine. If an organism brushes past by the weed, it dissolves into a cloud of airborne spores. If even one lands in the mouth, you only have a brief time to remove it. Unfortunately, it resembles a small blister making it hard to find. Once settled, it takes over the host's tongue like the Terran daemon ''[[wikipedia:Cymothoa_exigua|Cymothoa exigua]]'', absorbing nutrients that creates more spores. Once the host dies, the fake tongue dissolves and release even more spores.
*The '''Spiker''' - ''Spina transformatio'': Fires its spikes into its victims' bodies, which then releases a mutative chemical which literally turns the person into another Spiker.
*The '''Venus Mantrap''' - ''Vinea malum'': A giant carnivorous plant common to jungle Deathworlds. It resembles the Terran Venus Flytrap for which it is named but is far larger, and unlike the flytrap, it is able to move its leaves to attack and consume its prey. The Mantrap consists of a number of mobile leaves attached to a single immobile stem.
*The '''Spore Tree''': The branches of this plant hold dangling flowers which launch a cloud of spores when they detect something moving close by, to carry their seeds to other fertile areas. The spore cloud is so dense, the creature which disturbed the tree often chokes and dies. This is also useful for the spore tree as its victim's decaying body will enrich the ground around its roots.
*The '''Canak Floater''': These bizarre and deadly plants are filled with lighter-than-air gases and drift across the planet with the vagaries of the wind. They have sensitive feeler tentacles, which detect warmth and moisture above the normal local levels. This is usually to detect streams, hot springs and other sources of water, but unfortunately is also sensitive enough to detect the temperature of and moisture changes caused by humans. When it finds such a place, the floater explodes, scattering its seed pods over a wide area. These seedpods have a diamond-hard outer casing with razor-sharp edges and will scythe through anything within range.
*The '''Miral Catcher''': Ground-hugging vegetation which has roots that are extremely sensitive to vibrations in the ground, such as might be caused by an animal wandering past. It looks innocuous enough when dormant, but when it attacks, huge tentacles whip from its many frilled maws and lash out. They carry a paralysing toxin, which acts almost instantaneously.
*The '''Sucker Tree''': Fairly innocuous-looking to the untrained eye, it is simply a fungal-like growth on top of a seemingly normal trunk. However, the trunk can twist and turn when it detects prey, bending over to drop its suckers on top of the heads of its victims. It quickly drains them of their life fluids and then flings the corpse away, to ensure that future victims are not made suspicious by a pile of bodies.
*The '''Spitting Cactus''': A deadly form of jungle cacti, it is able to fire toxin-coated spines directly at nearby prey.
*The '''Catachan Mantrap''': While having a similar name to the Venus Mantrap, it uses a much more aggressive hunting technique. It can move its leaves around, actively searching out prey and clamping its jaw-like leaves around its victims.
*The '''Stranglevine''': Prefers shady spots to grow in, where their distinctive tube-like trunks are hidden from view. When they detect the disturbance caused by a passing animal, their long, highly adhesive stamen uncoil, wrapping themselves around their prey and dragging them back to die of dehydration.
*'''Shardwrack Spines''': Also known as "devil's-teeth", they are an evasive species of jagged formations of fossilized organic matter that have hardened over thousands of year forming razor-sharp walls of crystalline growth bursting from the ground. A usual sight on any deathworld – menacing, bizarre battle zones that only the strongest or the most foolhardy would dare fight on. They form impenetrable barriers that hamper movement, able to mortally wound anything that might come near – their strange shapes and sharp spines can pierce armour as if it wasn’t there. Available as a terrain set.
*'''Barbed Venomgorse''':- Covered in alien flora bright and beguiling, deathworlds are strange and sinister places few visit and fewer leave intact. Much of the pain, suffering and death can be attributed to the growth of barbed venomgorse. Possessed of a primal, cunning sapience, this carnivorous plant is highly adaptable, which snakes toward anything that lives, able to generate new weapon-growths and toxins throughout its life cycle while injecting debilitating neurotoxin with invariably fatal results. Commonly found with a collection of dead animal bones, xenos skeletons, and the odd unfortunate desiccated guardsman entangled in its sapient roots and boughs. The venom from a single one of these xeno-weeds is enough to kill most of a hive city. Mesh-like leaves, buds, and barbed flowers, a thick tangle of thorned creeper vines. Also available as a terrain set. Produces deadly subforms like the Grappleweed.
**'''Grappleweed''': the most common and deadly subform of the Barbed Venomgorse. The Grappleweed is a hideous alien plant, with stumpy bushes with trumpet-like flowers, able to shuffle across the landscapes of the galaxy in search of fresh morsels of prey. The writhing barbed tentacles are a deadly menace which will drag any prey with its grapple-barbed tongue into the fleshy trumpet for eventual digestion. Its is a ravenous carnivorous plant that tumbles towards its prey with astonishing swiftness before dousing it in highly corrosive chemicals and consuming the slurried remains.
