  • Animate Plants (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). The shadow blight magically animates 1d4 plants within 60 feet of it, turning them into awakened shrubs under its control. These plants' attacks deal an additional 3 (1d6) necrotic damage. If the shrubs are not destroyed before 1 hour passes, they become new shadow blights.
