Chapter 8

There are six classifications of hazardous herbs. When dealing with any dangerous magical plant, use dragonhide gloves & keep your wand close in case you need to cast a Shield Charm or strengthening charms.

Class A: Odorous

This class can act on people, animals, & other plants by unleashing powdered or gas odors. Wear a mask, use the Bubble-Head Charm, or keep a wand at your side. Masks should have strengthening charms & filtering charms.

Level One: Most dangerous, powder/gas causes heavy breathing/death, Hagweed pollen, Mandrakes are an example

Level Two: Less dangerous, poison/powder/gas causes inflammation in the respiratory system, finds ways under your skin/eyes, Smogwood trees are an example

Level Three: Mildly dangerous, paralysis in arms/legs, keep antidotes close, confusion, deep sleep, spider flowers are an example

Class B: Physically Aggressive & Class C: Toxic

Class B can strangle, bite, cut, or pummel you. Flesh-eating plants such as Devil's Snare, Fanged Geranium, & Spiky Bushes are in this class. Use dragonhide gloves or the Shield Charm & keep dittany on hand. Class C has four levels of toxicity; level four being highly dangerous, & level one is eaten raw. Most plants are somewhat toxic. Toxic plants can also be non-magical & wear dragonhide gloves.

Class D: Infectious, Class E: Burning & Class F: Reactive

Class D can cause a witch, wizard, or even animals to become infected with flus & viruses. Class E can cause burns & can give you frostbite. Class F can cause explosions & poisonous smoke. They explode when in sunlight for more than three hours. Gunpowder Gloriosas are an example of reactive plants.
