On the cover of the book, as well as in the final piece of artwork in the AP, Tahomen seems to wield some sort of magic or sentient plantlike claw / tentacle, coming out of a jar. It looks really cool and fits the theme of Castrovel's jungle quite well. My only issue is that I don't know what it is. I've looked at the stat block multiple times and I can't really figure out what it's supposed to be.
I think this might just be for flavor: maybe it's the way his Hurl Forcedisk spell works, but I don't know for sure. It reminds me of the weapon Ferani Nadaz carries on the cover of the first book of the AP: it looks like the arm of some sort of robot or android. I just assumed it was her customized "club" and called it a day.
But the plant claw thingy coming out of the jar seems a little bit too specific to be something the artist added without talking to the author about it... What am I missing? :D

This was brought up in one of the other threads, it was a slight miscommunication in the art order. But we’ll likely see it as a spell or item in the future now :3

Oh right, nevermind then, thanks for letting me know.
Np ^w^
I'm planning on reflavoring the Telekinetic Projectile spell into a plant claw attack. The claw extends from the "barrel", attacks a PC, then flies back. It's not EXACTLY the same thing as Projectile, but I don't think it'll make that much of a mechanical difference, and the attack looks too cool not to use.
This is exactly how I envisionned it. I plan to do the very same thing! :D
