Creature classification[edit]

To date, Greer plants have been treated as creatures on the wiki; hostile ones, no less. I don't believe this should be the case, for the following reasons:

  • They do not appear in U7's bestiary (this article uses the picture that appears for reapers)
  • They neither inflict nor take damage. In fact, they are handled by the engine as items.
  • The lone reference to them in the entire game (the book, Brommer's Flora) does nothing to paint them as anything but a harmless plant.

I think they should be removed from the wiki's bestiary and the Creatures category (while we're at it, perhaps we could do with a Flora category). Finally, all parallels that are currently drawn with the various plant-animal hybrid creatures of the series should be removed, i.e. in the Hydrae (U6) and Giant Orchids articles. --Terilem 10:33, 6 August 2011 (PDT)
