Blood Grass is the most common type of vegetation in the Bloodfields, but not the most dangerous.
This plant developed in the Bloodfields area when it had been deformed by the many battles that took place there.[1]
Appearance (in winter)[edit | edit source]
Some kind of rooted moss infests the soil at the border of the Boodfields. Further into the Bloodfields, it sprouts to red grass that develops stalks and leaves pointing towards the sky. These stalks resemble strange fungi, or hands, making the landscape seem otherworldly and hellish. The end-stage evolution of these plants are tall, twisted structures vaguely resembling trees. These thin, mangled plants have no bark and they stand alone, like sentinels.[2]
The plants aren't dangerous to touch most of the time; in a skin test Ryoka didn't get any reaction from them. She surmised that it was the late-season cold that rendered the plants inactive.[2] After hibernating in the winter, these plants are more dangerous in the spring, when the Bloodfields are blossoming.
