Firethorn

Key Information

Often called the Sea Rose, this flower exists almost entirely on the Island of the Lesser Dara south of Zarrirand. The flower grows in such numbers that it gives the lower areas of the island a reddish hue. At night, the island faintly glows from a distance due to a natural property of the flowers, and many who traverse the seas know of the island’s distant glow.

Traits

Burning. The island is generally uninhabited because the Firethorns are poisonous (DC 15 Cons. Save while standing within 45 feet of the flowers and their pollen; on a failed save, take 4d8 poison damage and be poisoned for 1d6 hours), except the fishing village of Hawa. Inhabitants of the settlement are well aware of the toxicity of the flowers and often give them a wide berth.
