Shambling Mound (Part 1)

Kill Every Monster

Shambling Mounds are described in the Monster Manual as creatures that “are sometimes called shamblers, trudging ponderously through bleak swamps, dismal marshes, and rain forests, consuming any organic matter in their path. These rotting heaps of animated vegetation loom up half again as tall as a human, tapering into a faceless “head” at the top.”

We are joined by Frankie Larson.

Frankie (they/she) is a writer, florist, podcaster, and plant-obsessed ttrpg gamer of over 13 years. You can find them frequently yelling about lawns on twitter at @humanhouseplant, or on their plant podcast, Propagated Podcast.
