Appearance[]
Undergrowth is shown as a massive, vaguely humanoid entity made out of plant stuff in the shape of vines with a face. He has four spikes on his skull, crimson eyes, dark green hands, shoulder pads, and a green cloak. Because his mouth resembles a spiky bird beak, the nostrils are most likely on the upper section of his "beak." He may also be seen tearing apart his head from the top, revealing a big, pinkish-purple brain inside.
Personality[]
| “ | Perhaps one day you will see that this is what nature intended all along. [growls] Mankind is merely a temporary weed in the garden of life. A weed that can be removed. | „ |
| ~ Undergrowth to Danny. |
Undergrowth favors plant life over animal life. To him, they are his "children". He considers people to be fragile, temporary lives that do not last long. He likes to use humans to do his dirty work. Undergrowth sometimes snarls before starting a sentence, similar to Vortex's mid-sentence wheeze. However, he shows respect for those who want to help nature, like Sam, and is also very proud of his own powers, especially his ability to regenerate.
