[Kholibrii 978]

Night Poppy

 

Sign(s): 

Earth

 

Symbol(s): 

Slowness x2

Lethargy x2

Peace x1

 

Appearance: 

Night Poppies grow in large clusters, their stalks growing to be several feet tall, with a large green bulb at the top, which blooms into a large flower with a dark purple hue.

 

Location: 

An uncommon poppy, generally found in open fields with tall grass, which allows it to stay hidden from wandering animals.

 

Harvesting: 

Harvesting the poppy is simple, seeing as it has no defense mechanisms. The flower of the plant can be harvested by simply cutting it off with a pair of alchemist shears or a knife. The flower can also easily be replanted in a garden, as long as it receives plenty of water and sunlight.

 

Raw Effect(s): 

The body of the plant is edible, with a bitter flavor similar to that of a dandelion, and little benefit. On the other hand, the flower it sprouts can be used in a tincture to help encourage sleep for an individual suffering from insomnia or pain. The flower can also be brewed directly into tea, providing a calming effect, and drowsiness if excessively consumed.

 

It should be used soon after blooming. Otherwise becoming ineffective if left exposed for an extended period of time. 

 

Redlines: 

-Night Poppy can not be used to force sleep on another player, as the most it will cause is extreme drowsiness.

-Night Poppies should be used soon after blooming. As they will lose their effectiveness if left exposed to air for longer than 10 narrative hours.

- If properly cared for, Night Poppy regrows at a rate of 1 measure per 3 OOC days.
