*'''Derma plant''' - Classification: Weed
*[[Derma]] - Classification: Weed
**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.
*[[Foreo]] - Classification: Fruit
 
*[[Guyver]] - Classification: Fruit
*'''Minevra plant''' - Classification: Weed
*[[Minevra]] - 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
 
==Food==
==Laudean Foods==
*'''Guyver''' (fruit) - not dissimilar to an earth mango, with a pale white flesh and no stone at the centre (the entirety could be eaten). The skin of the guyver is a thick leather-like coating which must be cut off and is usually kept and used to make material. It is also very hard to find when it is out of season. (sim 128). Material is for garments and the Season is March - May.
 
*'''Bryque Province Coffee''' - A coffee blend from bryque province, that has a slightly nutty flavor and is stronger than Bolian coffee. (sim 2143)

*'''Grazing Animals'''
*[[Pletrok]] - Classification: Grazing animal
**'''Pletroks'''
*[[Surrilian Monkat]] - Classification: primate
***'''Discription by Toni Turner''': Pletroks live in the mountainous areas of Til'hon, grazing on grasses and the lowest evergreen branches. They are as large as Earth's moose, but look like a horse with short spiraled horns. These split-hoofed creatures have a predominately silvery-gray coat that is emphasized by a silky white mane and tail.
 
*'''Other Animals'''
**'''Surrilian Monkat''': Very rare animal found only in small family groupings on Duronis II. A primate-feline mix in appearance, they are highly developed and are the only creature other than the Laudeans to have a connection to the Fielding.
***'''Discription by Cyrus Webb''': They were small creatures, approximatly 40cm tall, and appeared to be a cross between some sort of monkey and some sort of cat. They had the apparant human like features of a monkey, small hands and feet, but with large ears and highly alert eyes, they also had a cat like face with whiskers, one was a grey colour almost a charcoal grey, whilst the other was a much paler colour and almost tan, the eyes of the tanned one almost shone in the darkness of the cage, it was elegant looking and intelligent in appearance. Semi-sentient -communicate with one another telepathically. Seem particularly pleasing to betazoid children.
