You have gained:
-Another bush, making you a shrubbery!
-Flesh eating! Gains size and XP.

You eat Wil Wheaton, the adventurer, and the hunter, gaining 300XP. 150 to go! You also are now a shrubbery. Uh-oh! It looks like a priest has come from the human town, and he's saying that Metalhead would never take a bush as his avatar! What do you do?

> tell him telepathically that Metalhead will prove your godliness! Command him to approach you and form a physical link with your leaves through which you may prove the truth! Then eat him.

Tell your priest to make a trap along the path the priest took to get here, so they will die when they leave.

Use your telepathic powers to make it look like you burst into flames, then yell in a commanding voice "I! AM! METALHEAD! DO NOT QUESTION MY POWER OR MY WILL!"

Engage him theologically.  Explain that there is a time for all things in the span of the universe.  Metalhead is bound by no law but the law of Metalhead and will take whatever form Metalhead does desire.  The time has come to pass that Metalhead shall take the form of a shrubbery for it is a season where Metalhead wishes all to begin anew.

Finesse is fine too.

You're going to need to upgrade your telepathic powers before you can use illusion or hypnosis. Right now, it's just how you talk. And you can't eat stuff until it's already dead. So, you tell him that Metalhead has left a sign in the temple. Meanwhile your kobold prophet has erected a trap which will knock a tree over on him. It works. THE WORDS OF METALHEAD ARE WRITTEN IN BLOOD! You're doing great, although you're not sure that Metalhead is really who you want to be to teach the way of the One True Bush Shrubbery. 300XP gained. You have leveled up! You are level 7! 650 XP to go.

You may gain one new ability.

Yeah, I did. Before we can shoot thorns though, we must first grow thorns.

Since we already have a rank in telepathy:

Gain the ability to use hypnosis, drawing unsuspecting victims in close.

I dunno, abilities are weird. I bet you could get two for one if you phrase it right.
