Summary:
The forests of Oren were quiet as caravan made its way through to drop off a shipment at Abresi. It carted along the road peacefully, but the plants it passed were somehow changed. A magic powder seemed to be drifting off of the caravan and blowing around in the wind. The plants took in the powder, assuming it was being pollinated by an insect. Nothing happened for awhile, but later, they started to see and hear, instead of just feel. Unlatching themselves from the ground, the plants found that they could move. Unsure of what had happened, these natural beings found their way to Abresi, where they noticed the caravan was parked.
Camping outside of Abresi, the plants have decided to band together. Some plants looked like mushrooms, others looked like flowers, and many sights of these plants had been reported. One was filed by Violet, the plant store owner in Abresi. She stated that she had found one of her mushrooms 'moving and chasing her' when she got the shipment. The plant had then run off into forest, where there were even more of them! Deemed as a heretic, people ignored Violet. However, once they experienced the sight for themselves, the people of Abresi spread rumors. One plant apparently touched a man with a branch, which had followed him during his morning schedule.
The people called for a swift removal of these plants, but sadly, no one could ever find them in the forest. Where had they gone? Later that day, one plant ventured into the city itself. It was swiftly murdered by the men of the city, scattering its remains. Its seeds erupted from its head, spawning even more plants. The plants escaped into the forests, where they joined the large group already growing. Fearful and surprised, the people of Abresi alerted everyone in Oren.
What were these plants motives? Who will rid them of Oren? How will someone kill them?

Other Information: The plants latch themselves into the ground, appearing like regular mushrooms to the common eye. Despite the plants having no real way to attack the people, they are able to reproduce quite easily. Upon death, the tops of their heads are able to release seeds that may grow more plants. The way to combat this is to set them on fire. For example, if they are just cut up, the seeds will release fine.

POTENTIAL IDEAS:
Have the plants take over inactive buildings (as an excuse to get rid of them). -Hex37
Make a quest-line with NPC-like characters. I would be willing to play Violet as one of them.
