A Shambler appears to be a heap of rotting vegetation. It is actually an intelligent carnivorous plant with sensory organs located in its upper body. A shambler’s body has an 8-foot girth and is about 6 feet tall when the creature stands erect. It weighs about 3,800 pounds. It is typically encountered in temperate marshes or other warm wetlands, but it may also be found in other areas where rotting vegetation can accumulate in large quantities.
