Shadbush

Shadbush
A red, waxy-leafed bush that produces small, burgundy colored berries that can be eaten in small amounts to ward off scurvy and nutrition-related illness.

Skunkbush

Skunkbush
This plant is composed of white flowers, which have a very strong odor. In contrast to the name, the flowers do not smell bad, but their scent is so strong that it suppresses all other smells within the vicinity of the flowers.

Skunkbush usually grows in the edges of forests, and the smell keeps most of the wild animals away. Wise herbalists commonly camp near skunkbush without worrying about wild animal encounters.

Stammerwort
A small, woody-stemmed plant with no leaves, but a single stalk that is common on the edges of woodland. This stalk is commonly stripped away to get at the Stammerwort’s inner meat, which is a slightly fibrous, gummy white flesh that can be chewed for several hours, tastes like sweetmint, and cures headaches.

Swampwalker

Swampwalker
A curious plant that has caused more than a few strange tales from the rural villagers, the Swampwalker seems to stand out of the water, supported by a mass of tendrils, and sprouting a clump of pink flowers that attract various insects. Each tendril is the thickness of a finger, and due to slow currents in the swamp, the tendrils often clump together or break off entirely, causing the plant to look like a looming figure standing on the surface of the brackish water. One legend has it that the plants come alive during the darkest of nights. They stalk nearby villages hoping to catch the unwary and drag them back to watery graves. Whether this is true or not is completely unknown.
