Goblins Ivy

Goblin’s Ivy represents a Weak Earth Symbol in alchemy.

The brownish-green vine of the deserts, Goblin’s Ivy lives up to its name as it grows with short vines and leaves, and takes on a terrible disgusting color. This muddy piece of fauna is actually quite common amongst the Deserts of Asulon in the fact that it seems to enjoy clinging to buildings, ruins, mountains, or anything else that will accept its murky visage. Goblin’s Ivy isn’t necessarily the finest of ingredients within Asulon, but if one only has access to desert ingredients, it can be a suitable symbol for the element of Earth. Within the domain of Earth it often represents resilience, life, and poison. It’s an interesting truth that Goblin’s Ivy can make a scentless, cunning, but mild, poison that induces nausea but what’s more interesting is how it can boost resilience potions, such as a potion of Stoneskin, due to its strange nature of surviving under less than favorable circumstances. Goblin’s Ivy is an ivy within a desert, sitting in the unforgiving, scorching sun all day long, and yet it survives with little moisture. Even when somebody hacks it away, Goblin’s Ivy seems to always come back as if it were some sort of weed, or a stray dog you foolishly decided to feed. Even if it isn’t exactly the jewel of the desert, it is certainly a mystery of nature that this petite plant is just as hardy as any diamond.
