An illustrated guide to magical plants!

Herbalist's Primer is a system-agnostic illustrated guide to real-world magical plants. Inspired by the 19th-century herbalists and the millennia of folklore, myths, and legends, it brings a wealth of easily-accessible, organized information straight to your gaming table.

From screaming mandragoras to shape-shifting deadly nightshade to hawthorns holding portals to the fey realms - the world of plant folklore is full of fascinating stories, magical rituals, and simple spells that are quite unbreakable.

Every entry lists, if possible, their culinary, medicinal, magical, and poisonous properties. Each entry includes basic botanical information, a handy scale reference, commonly used names, and a short description, so there's no need to read the whole thing if you're just browsing for inspiration!

Features:

 • A guide to real-world magical plants.

 • A mix of ethnobotany, folklore, green witchcraft, occult, and science.

 • A fully-illustrated, thoroughly-researched resource for writers and world-builders.

 • An all-in-one book for druids, healers, alchemists, and poisoners - perfect for an in-world item and applicable in all fantasy (and most modern) settings.

 • A system-agnostic toolkit for game masters everywhere, complete with tips on including the plants in your campaigns - and creating new, exciting pieces of flora.
