Slumberdrow

Description

The Slumberdrow, a rare and enchanting bloom, is celebrated for its potent sleep-inducing properties. Its large, velvety petals transition in hue from soft lavender to deep violet, often bordered instriking red or white. Emitting a sweet, calming fragrance, this flower stands at a modest 1 foot. It flourishes in the underdark or locales with scarce sunlight, lending a touch of beauty to these otherwise somber environments.

Properties

The petals of the Slumberdrow hold potent properties. Upon ingestion, they induce a profound sleep. The consumer must succeed on a DC 10 Constitution saving throw or succumb to slumber after 1d4 hours. This sleep is no ordinary rest; the creature remains oblivious to damage and the slumber persists for 16 hours unless an antidote is administered.

Cultivation

Cultivating the Slumberdrow involves planting seeds harvested from the flower’s center in well-drained soil with regular watering. The plant favors shade and thrives in cool, shaded areas. A picked flower wilts after a week, necessitating careful maintenance to preserve its vitality.

Applications

The petals of the Slumberdrow are not only visually appealing but also edible, albeit with an ill taste. When dried and crushed, they transform into a spice that retains the same effect as direct petalingestion. An antidote to counteract the petal’s effects can be concocted by combining pollen from the flower with vinegar and gold dust.
