Herb

The flora of Elanthia is not only beautiful, but it can also provide an abundant supply of healing herbs. Occasionally, the lucky or talented adventurer may stumble across one of the following herbs out in the wilds, and if not, they are often available for purchase.

Herbs can be used by EATing or DRINKing them. Their inherent magical properties allow them to be used even on the recently dead: as long as the herb is in liquid form (potion or tincture), POUR it INTO (not ON!) the dead adventurer.

Regional Herbs

Wehnimer's Landing, River's Rest & Solhaven

Surtey Akrash, famed healer of Wehnimer's Landing, has provided this brief list of the magical properties of local common herbs, exotic fruits and useful potions.

Wehnimer's Landing Potions

	bolmara potion :	major nervous system
	brostheras potion :	major head & neck scars
	bur-clover potion :	missing eye
	rose-marrow potion :	minor head & neck wounds
	talneo potion :	minor eye & torso scars
	wingstem potion :	major eye & torso scars

Wehnimer's Landing Herbs

acantha leaf	Acantha is one of several herbs in a group which will heal mild concussion damage when eaten (the leaves are the most beneficial). It can be found in a wide range of climates -- from near desert conditions to moist ocean beaches.
aloeas stem	The Aloeas tree, although rare, is famed for its amazing ability to heal serious and critical head and neck wounds. This is a small tree which tends to grow in colder, wet areas, such as along riverbanks. The medicinal properties are best found in the stems of its leaves.
ambrominas leaf	Ambrominas bushes have leaves which are known to speed the healing of minor limb wounds. Foragers may identify this common bush by its dark green oval leaves, and are behooved to search for it in grasslands and hilly areas.
basal moss	Basal moss is not uncommon, but an important component of a empath's herb inventory. Growing primarily in temperate climates, on the bark of deciduous trees, this moss will provide immediate healing of minor internal and external organ damage.
calamia fruit	Calamia fruit, famed for its ability to repair serious limb scars, tends to grow in very warm, moist climates. This large fruit may be identified easily by its light red, almost pink color. Most efficacious in its dried form, the fresh fruit can also provide some benefit.
cothinar flower	Cothinar flowers are usually found in colder barren areas as they thrive in the winter and do not like having competition for their nutrients. Not as easily found as Acantha, they are still eagerly sought since they are quite a bit more potent in healing concussion damage.
cactacae spine	Cactacae cactus grows in desert-like conditions, and should be sought for its sharp spines. These long brown thorns, when harvested carefully and then chewed, can heal minor scarring and defects on limbs.
cuctucae berry	Cuctucae berries are able to heal concussion damage, much as the leaves of the Acantha tree, but are somewhat less potent. The bushes can be found growing wild in higher elevations, and seem to thrive in cooler climates.
ephlox moss	Ephlox moss, a rare fungus with potent healing abilities when used on serious and critical limb wounds, does best in a cold wet environment with ample sunlight to grow. It should be sought along stream banks or growing on tree bark.
strigae cactus	The flesh of the Strigae cactus is beneficial in helping to recover from mild concussion damage, however extreme caution must be exercised while harvesting this plant, lest the damage incurred while gathering it outweigh any possible benefit. The small cacti grow abundantly in desert conditions.
haphip root	The Haphip tree, which typically grows in hot, humid conditions and requires large amounts of moisture, should be sought for a small portion of its root system, which can heal and remove scar tissue around the face, head and neck. Be careful to only harvest a small amount of the root, lest the rare tree be killed.
marallis berry	The Marallis plant produces berries which can help one recover from light concussion damage. The plants are most commonly found in colder hills and mountains.
pothinir grass	Pothinir grass, a must for any emergency kit, is indispensable for its ability to heal serious internal and external injuries to the eyes and torso, and perhaps just as well known for its terrible taste. Although extremely difficult to find, it is however well worth the effort. The best places to look for it are hot, humid areas which get large amounts of sunlight.
sovyn clove	The small dried flowers (also known as cloves) of the Sovyn bush have the miraculous ability to cause the regeneration of an entire limb! These flowers need to have been dried by the sun in order to have their restorative powers; therefore, the time at which this herb is picked is crucial.
spearmint leaf	The leaves of the Spearmint plant, though occasionally bitter, provide benefit to your socialization skills when consumed. Spearmint is fairly common in temperate grassy fields, and occasionally grows wild near cultivated areas.
torban leaf	The leaves of the Torban tree have been proven an effective treatment for certain minor nervous system scars and defects such as slurred speech. Found only in mild climates, the tree is not difficult to find, but special care must be exercised to harvest the leaves in the proper stage of growth, as they are otherwise useless except for tea-making.
wolifrew lichen	Wolifrew lichen, a fungus known for its ability to cure minor nervous system disorders, grows in cold, dark areas. While sometimes this includes secluded outdoor areas, the lichen is much more likely to be found inside a cold, wet cave. Its yellow-brown color makes it distinguishable from other fungi.
yabathilium fruit	Yabathilium, an uncommon tree which grows on beaches and saltwater coastlines, produces a small greenish fruit which, though extremely bitter, has amazing concussion restoration powers.
woth flower	Woth, an exceedingly rare and beautiful flower which heals serious nervous system scars when eaten, grows most often in hot, humid, dark climates, such as a rain forest. These flowers, when in full bloom, have a blue throat surrounded by ruffled violet petals.

ptarmigan feathers	Perhaps it's merely an old wives' tale, but at least one old wife (Ma Leaftoe) swears that chewing on ptarmigan feathers can restore missing limbs.

Pinefar

Further north in the frozen tundra, where the Pinefar Trading Post is located, the elven herbalist, Celk Fyretryst, can be found. Celk can be observed blending his healing powders in a large mortar before adding them to various beakers of liquid, transforming them into teas and potions. So remarkable are Celk's teas and potions that they even heal the dead (discontinued).

Teras Isle

On Teras Isle the dwarves are rumored to drink nothing but ale -- and so it is not surprising that they have found a way to grind healing herbs and blend them with hops and barley to produce a full range of healing ales. In addition to the healing ales, those in need will also find ales to remove disfiguring scars. Ales can be purchased from Agarnil Kriss by the flagon or the barrel. Much like the teas and potions of Celk Fyretryst, Agarnil Kriss' ales will heal wounds on the dead.
