Billowing Nightbloom

This rather unique plant from Southern Shalzaar gains its name from the elongated, dark blue membrane that unfurls from it at night. When the breeze pushes the membrane, it opens like a net, catching any and all flying insects and the occasional small bird in its grasp. When prey is caught in this manner, the membrane secretes a sticky fluid that both secures the prey and paralyzes it. By sunrise, the membrane coils back into the large plant where it will then slowly digest the captured prey over the course of a day. The secretion is often harvested by the Shadow Elves of that area to poison arrowheads and blades. While non-lethal, the toxin can paralyze a grown man in seconds and last up to a half hour.
