Gillyweed

Gillyweeds are a species of animal native to Aldenard. They are usually quite large, averaging about twice the height of a human, although they can occasionally grow larger. Gillyweeds could be described as looking "plantlike" or "viney" as they have a large number of vine-like appendages growing out of their body. Gillyweeds are often hunted for their flesh,as eating the raw flesh of a gillyweed grants the ability to breath underwater for a few hours. However, gillyweeds are extremely dangerous creatures, as they are highly poisonous and large. Thus, Flesh of Gillyweed is extremely rare and expensive and gillyweed hunters usually very rich and short-lived.
