Description: An herb characterized by black berries and dark crimson leaves. An Alchemist may use Belladonna to distil flying potions (lasting D10 minutes). Both Alchemists and Adepts of the College of Black Magics may distil a powerful poison from Belladonna (100% kill chance). Anyone may feed the berries to a victim they desire to poison, though their bitter taste will probably make the victim unwilling to eat enough to do serious harm. Death is by heart and respiratory failure within several hours of ingestion.
