Steampunk Plant

Overview
Living deep in shadow caves, these creatures have been altered to survive in their delicately balanced habitat. Shadow caves are very unstable in space and time, so steampunk plants and other shadow cave creatures must do their jobs well.

Daily Life
Though it is unknown how exactly the complicated system of the shadow cave works, the steampunk plant contributes to stability. It absorbs heat from geothermal vents and shoots it as steam that some creatures like. It seems to calm cavern crashers, though only slightly.

Adaptations

 * Its flowers are shaped like gears, and it constantly shoots steam, giving it the name of Steampunk.
 * It is unknown why it has leaves, as any sunlight reaching the deep shadow caves can cause huge disturbances.
