so welcome to the lore or nightcrawlers! they have no gender at all they are born from abandoned foliage in forests it can be any forest they are hostile because they are scared and are very peaceful they like to decorate themselves in moss and flowers and mushrooms keep this in mind that it has to be a type of flower that tends to grow quickly if places on a living being,moss and the mushrooms will do that too!,the moss and lfowers and mushrooms depend ont eh type of forest if it is a willow tree forest instead of moss they get long branches of leaves it will sometimes take the form of a poncho or long hair,they blend in with the forests and make tiny homes in them. the babys are called kits and they choose who they want to stay with.the kits sometimes are born with long tails or even wooden masks,sometimes the tails have a wooden spear end which acts like a pen the masks can represent any animal and they really love to carve wood to make things. they will follow people with flowers because they are missing their flowers or they have no moss or mushrooms or even no flowers at all,they have their own language but they sometimes use sign language but their language sounds like wind howling so there is no need for fear when your in a forest and you feel watched the nightcrawlers are just wondering who you are or what you are and they purr when happy. if you introduce yourself before you enter the forest they will come out of hiding and will talk to you using sign language or talking to you in their language. they rarely leave anyone behind but that happens by accident. people like to steal the kits because they are rare and people just want something to protect their homes. the caretaker will always find their kit and destroy the home and the people responsible for taking the kit away. you can play with the kit but once its time for bed the caretaker will take the kit away and then thats your que to leave. because the humming the caretaker makes when trying to get the kit to go to sleep is powering with calming energy and you will end up falling asleep and in a high high tree knook coverd in flowers and moss, it dose not harm the nightcrawlers but it can be painful when you have been asleep for a straight 48 hours on wood.
so! the caretakers plants have diffrent abilitys but the most deadly is the wisteria plants if they take root in the persons brain they will go insane,the wisteria caretaker will let a few plants take root in some peoples brain causing some sort of mind control the people will flock to the abductors house and break in
