Dire Shroomclaw Creature 2
Dire shroomclaws, as they're sometimes jokingly called, can be quite dangerous for unprepared explorers. They're opportunistic predators, and while they avoid most seasoned, well-armed parties, they might test greenhorns or pursue weakened or helpless creatures.

Pounce
[one-action]
The shroomclaw Strides and makes a Strike at the end of that movement. If the shroomclaw began this action hidden, it remains hidden until after its Strike.
Suppressing Spores
[two-actions]
(poison)
The shroomclaw releases a 10-foot burst of spores around itself that deal 1d4 poison damage to all non-shroomclaw creatures in the area (DC 13 basic Fortitude save); on a critical failure, the creature becomes suppressed for 1 minute. The shroomclaw can't use suppressing spores again for 1d4 rounds.
Shroomclaw
Called shroomclaws by the first explorers who encountered them, these predators have evolved to thrive in the frosty depths of Aballon's Ice Wells. Every spring, shroomclaws take root deep in the Gloaming and spawn. Weeks later, glimmering kittens with strange sporelike growths wriggling throughout their fur emerge from the depths and wander into camps. The survivors that aren't picked off by predators or poached for a lucrative export business grow quickly on a diet of flora and insects.Called shroomclaws by the first explorers who encountered them, these predators have evolved to thrive in the frosty depths of Aballon's Ice Wells.
