Pounce ◆ The tiger topiary Strides or Leaps and makes a Strike at the end of that movement. If it began this action Hidden, it remains hidden until after this ability's Strike.

Pruning ◆ (concentrate, manipulate, polymorph) The tiger topiary twists and contorts its shape, shedding branches and leaves as needed to change into a topiary of a Medium or smaller animal. Until the next time it acts, the topiary has an automatic result of 32 for Deception checks and DCs to appear as a mundane topiary.

Walk Through Plants The tiger topiary ignores difficult terrain caused by dense vegetation.
