Cratcha
A large fleshy-leaved plant able to pivot its flower full round thanks
to a slender supple stem. When threatened the cratcha's single flower
is thrust forth and spits a deadly poisoned substance. Movement of its
pistils gives indication of imminent attack. Mostly found in jungle and
forest areas, rare in desert areas.
Jubla
A massive, elegantly shaped plant measuring up to 10
meters in height which reaches out midway into leafy branches. The
reproductive organ is situated at the top of the plant which flowers
into brightly colored tufts. The jubla is a peaceful plant, though if
menaced, a series of orifices situated at approximately one meter from
the ground around the bulbous base are thrust out on fleshy stems
projecting large seeds at the aggressor. The jubla grows in the Prime
Roots of Atys.
Psykopla
Of the family of Psychic plants, the psykopla's short
stem is surmounted by a large bulbous head which changes color when
pulsating. It has been said that the psykopla is able to direct psychic
waves onto a prey to gain control of its psyche. The victim then
becomes devoted to the plant and acts on its behalf in the protection
of its habitat. This is, however, yet to be proved. The psykopla occurs
mainly in forest and jungle regions it being slightly bigger in the
latter environment.
Shooki
A slender stemmed plant with large palmate leaves found in arid desert
areas where it takes on the predominant color of the surrounding
landscape. The cup-shaped flower secretes nectar sought after by
insects who are invited to tranquilly feed in swarms while the petals
close in on them so offering protection. If menaced the shooki will
thrust forth its flower heads releasing the swarm of insects, thus the
two entities form a lethal symbiosis.
Slaveni
A predatory plant with a spring-like stem and long slender leaves. The
stem twists up and down so unfurling the leaves which are edged with
tiny lacerating teeth. The slaveni occurs mostly in jungle and forest
regions, though rare specimens have been noted in desert regions.
Stinga
An aquatic plant with a spongy stem whose long tubular
outgrowths are capable of emitting a painful electric charge. Two
varieties have been recorded, the first can be found on the edge of
lakes, the second on the lake bed, the former being distinguished
physically by its brighter colors. The stinga, like all intelligent
plants, will not attack homins unless menaced, in which it uses its
electric organs to send out an powerful charge that will slow down the
aggressor.
