Tippens Root
|
Tippen's Roots are the roots of a plant which blooms purple flowers, which are sometimes called the flowers of Tippen. It was named after the botanist that had first discovered it around hills and in dense forests. The locations where it grows are not kind ones, as they grow besides fallen trees, but as well next to carcases of animals and great bugs. The purple flowers give a nice contrast when compared to the death around them. The roots are yellow in color with spots accentuated a bit more darker. Many carry these roots around, as they have great medicinal use. It's greatest obstacle is it's smell, which is worse than the carcases which they grow near of.
Effects on use
Tippen's root is a plant which should be known to most healers throughtout the lands. After it's first discovery by Tippen, the knowledge of the effects spreed fast, expecially with the writting of the Travelling Alchemist's books. The remedy created with the roots is one that can almost instantly stop any bleeding. While using it, the patient may gag and even vomit from thinking that something as foul-smelling as that balm is being placed onto their open wound.
Alchemical uses
This plant serves as a Moderate Earth Symbol in alchemy. The greatest representations are life and resilience, it being said that no potion of mending can be made without this plant. Using this reagent in a potion may remove some of the oddor, yet for an alchemist, sometimes better effects surpass removing oddors and making the potion look pleasent.
