There is another variant of Brainleaf that appears as a grey, hairy vine wrapped around a tall object. When prey gets too close to the vine, it will reach down and attach a leaf to the back of the creature's neck. The fibers in the leaf then quickly burrow into the spinal chord of the victim, reducing a victim to a brainleaf thrall. {{Fn|2}}
The Brainleaf uses its victims to protect itself, and propagate its young. Victims have no intelligence, often lacking the motor skills to use primitive weapons. To protect the Brainleaf, the thrall will charge at anything that gets too close and beat it with whatever appendages it has.{{Cite this}}
The Brainleaf can be removed from a victim, though it is incredibly dangerous to the victim. If they aren't killed by the agonizing procedure, they will suffer permanent nerve damage. {{Fn|2}}
