Therefore, I was watching Farscape and saw the bit where the flowers make the Scarrian smarter and thus more dangerous. I was thinking that something similar in a game setting could be interesting for goblins, ogres, orcs and so forth.
So how about the, the brain flower. If the bloom is eaten it will increase the intelligence of a goblin, hobgoblin, bugbear, orc, troll and kobald by one point. The effects last a week. Multiple blooms may be eaten in a week to increase intelligence to a maximum of an increase of 6 points. This does not have any other effect on these races and is not known to have any effect on any other races.
So some goblins could start eating 6 blooms a week, have an intelligence of 15 and be deadlier.
What do you think?
