Aconite
Named for the Greek word for "without struggle", Aconite is known for its poisonous nature.
HANDLE WITH DRAGONHIDE GLOVES!!
In a small dose Aconite can be a powerful sedative and lower the heart rate. It can also treat pricking skin pain.
When harvesting Aconite, leave no root exposed or local wildlife
could eat it and die. Aconite is normally found in moderately-tempered
mountains and forests.
When growing Aconite, use nutitious, dark, fluffy soil, and make sure it doesn't get too much sun. Always use Dragon-hide gloves and do not attempt to work with Aconite when dealing with any open sores or wounds.
