Bitterroot (Enhanced)
Gnarled blue-black roots with luminescent veins that pulse with the phases of the moon. Leaves glow faintly at night, creating a ghostly blue aura that intensifies when danger approaches.
Dreamvetch
Sprawling vine with star-shaped purple flowers that open only at dusk. Each flower produces a seed pod that, when mature, emits a faint humming sound.
Ghostpetal Orchid
Semi-transparent petals that become invisible under UV light. Pollen induces hallucinations and temporary quantum displacement.
Cultivation Protocols
Access complete cultivation guides for all documented post-Collapse botanical specimens. Detailed instructions on growth conditions, nutrient requirements, and harvesting techniques for optimal toxin extraction.
Quantum Botanical Procedures
- Establish probability-stable environment
- Calibrate ToxNet to specific specimen frequency
- Monitor quantum resonance during growth phases
- Adjust temporal flow as needed
- Harvest at probability convergence points
Safety Measures
- Never cultivate reality-affecting species without anchor points
- Maintain consciousness backup before handling Tier 3+ specimens
- Use temporal isolation for unknown mutations
- Keep quantum stabilizers within reach
Ash Weathervane's Research Notes
Personal observations and research findings documented throughout Ash's journey of botanical discovery and vengeance.
Day 172 after the attack:
"In every leaf, every root, every drop of sap, I see echoes of my family. The plants speak to me as they always did, but now their whispers carry secrets of vengeance and survival. I have become like them—rooted in poison, growing stronger from what should kill me."
On Bitterroot cultivation:
"The irony isn't lost on me that this plant—which Mira once used to treat her dolls' imaginary fevers—now turns Synth joints to liquid and melts their neural pathways. Everything beautiful becomes a weapon eventually."
On Dreamvetch properties:
"Liora's Dreamvetch taught me that plants hold memories. Her fingerprints are still there in the breeding patterns, in the way certain variants respond to moonlight. I speak to her through them, pollinating the varieties she started, continuing her work. Somewhere, perhaps, she knows."
