We do not know what in fact it is. It was not yet fully explored. Exhibits characteristics of both plants, but also has a well developed awareness and a very mischievous character. In the spring and summer very dusty which is dangerous to humans. The dust contains a significant amount of psychoactive substances that can cause severe intoxication and hallucinations.

maybe I'm just crazy, but I really wanted the last line of the description to be something like "and it really like waffles." just something really inane and innocuous.
and the art is incredible, I really like the fantasy theme and the sort of SCP style description.

I love this piece because...well it has character and a disturbing reality to it that I love. The bright colors on the creature that would normally relate to beauty and happiness seem almost menacing here. the art isn't perfect but that adds to the mystique of the creature all that much more. Which the fact the artist took time to give it a context deserves points. 5 stars for good use of palate, space and excellent perspective.

For some reason...I feel like it's pointing the way to Winterhold.
But a great piece of work with alot of great shading and details. The hybrid look is especially fearsome and certainly creates an 'uncanny' feel to it. A great potential boss for a game, or a flash movie monster!

Really liked this piece. It looks like the creature took a body of a human and is dissolving it after it wore off.
