Tatian Brackmint

Also known as bracknip, this native Tatian plant is used by the Pegasus riders to make poisonous insecticides to combat the insects that eat Tatian crops. In its raw, untreated state, it is toxic to nearly every humanoid race if ingested. The leaves secrete oils which are irritating to the skin. Fairies seem to have developed an immunity to the toxins due to the frequency they handle the herb. Non-magic races seem to be especially vulnerable to the toxins. However, once mixed into the insect poison, it does not seem to affect humanoid races as much as it does in the raw state.

Brackmint is very similar to catnip in appearance, but the flowers are a bright, electric blue color when they bloom. The leaves are softer as well, and most felines tend to avoid it. Brackmint usually grows in large clumps in moderate climates. Though it grows quickly and hardily in many places, it is ruthlessly weeded out wherever it is found due to its toxic nature. Infestations of brackmint can be grounds for cordoning off areas or buildings.
