Creepvine (Subnautica)

Template:Infobox:Fauna Flora The Creepvine is a life Form belonging to the flora category. It is the main type of flora in the Kelp Forest area. By cutting them with a Survival Knife, the player can acquire a Creepvine Sample. Some Creepvines grow out harvestable Creepvine Seed Clusters.

Appearance

Creepvines are towering, green kelp-like plants. They attach to the seabed, with some almost reaching the water's surface.

The central stalk or stipe is surrounded by smaller kelp blades. These blades increase in size and density the closer they are to the surface.

Some Creepvines feature Creepvine Seed Clusters about halfway up the stipe, capable of emitting yellow bioluminescent glows.

Planting

Creepvines can be grown by the player via the Farming Tray. Both Creepvine Seed Clusters and Creepvine Samples can be planted to grow mature Creepvines.

While planted Creepvine Seed Clusters produce large Creepvines that have more seeds, Creepvine Samples grow up only to be a long, thin, seedless Creepvine.

Data Bank Entry

A kelp species concentrated in large forests, in shallow, sandy waters. Loose roots anchor the plant to the sea floor, from where it grows steadily toward the surface in pursuit of sunlight.

The stem is fibrous and rich in iron, making it both a viable food stuff, and base material for fabrication of textiles such as rope and bandages.

Predators: Hoverfish, Eyeye, Rabbit Ray, Peeper.
