Category: Realistic

The first in a series of old world plants i am doing. The theme in the title "witches brew" i chose because of the commonly used plants in pagan rituals that dominate this series. most of these plants are also highly toxic, so never use, handle, or ingest these plants unless you are a certified herbologist who knows what you're doing.

Belladonna, otherwise known as Deadly nightshade is a powerful toxin and hallucinagen. NEVER ingest any part of this plant, and avoid handeling it. This plant was used in pagan rituals. The absobtion of the toxins created the feeling of weightlessness, and caused strong hallucinations. however the side effects of using this plant in any way would have made for a very painful day the next morning. including sever rashing, vomiting, and partial paralisis. all of these effects are temporary, and would wear off within a day. however if ingested this plant will cause paralisis of the heart and lead to death.
