**'''Minevra plant''': | **A flowering plant will leaves edged in white that produces a tubular root. The Derma oil used in the Laudean Birthing Ritual as described in [[Laudean Rituals & Customs]] is taken from this root. | ||
*'''Minevra plant''' - Classification: Weed | |||
**'''Discription by Anthony Creed''': The Minevra plant produces a miniture sized flower simular to Earth's sunflower, but because it is deemed "utterly useless" with no medicinal or aesthetic value, it is termed a weed. However, the Laudeans use it as part of their development of their Fielding powers. Zalkonian research has resently made a startling discovery about the Minevra plant. As well as blocking Fielding abilities, it also blocks all telepathy. Betazoids are especially suseptible to its effect. Too much exposure could kill them, and the stronger the telepathic ability, the stronger the effects. | |||
**'''Description by Paetra Zrong''': All Laudean women have to drink two cups of Minevra tea everyday. It’s made from the Minervra plant that grows in the Providence of Damodara (see [[Duronis Physical Geography ]]), but the tea can be found any City markets. She start before beginning the second month when the child will start the accelerated growth. She will need a fielding to help her throughout the pregnancy | |||
