Triffids are a species of plant monster that reside in the garden of the manor and occasionally stray into the courtyard. They have no eyes, ears, or noses, but the sting protruding from their "mouth" (sometimes with a flower) on the end of their stems is super sensitive and can detect movement and sound waves with it. The tower above any human and weigh as much or more than a horse, their necks a brown-tinted green and the body and legs dull brown like the trunk of a tree.
The Triffid may not have all of its senses, but for what it lacks in intelligence and awareness it makes up for with size and the deadliness of its sting. Though it looks like it would be a slow and lumbering beast, the Triffid can walk as fast as any human, despite it only having three legs and a strange, dragging-like gait. Their sting can paralyze limbs and the bulb on the end can tear through flesh with its tiny but sharp spikes.
Triffids do not travel or live in groups, and are extremely territorial, so there is no fear of a pack of Triffids going for the same prey. They also, like their plant cousins, are very flammable. Their stem-like necks are thick, but with a particularly sharp weapon and a strong arm, it could be beheaded and ultimately killed. Cutting the sting off could be effective as well, though that would only disarm it.
