A-038 Psychamellia

== CACG Item File ==
Item A-038 is an anomalous variant of the Camellia sasanqua shrub. It differs physically from its non-anomalous counterpart with a much more robust flower, as well as purple, magenta, and blue-violet coloration. Despite the Research Division's best efforts, A-038's origins remain unknown as of writing. A-038's anomalous properties only seem to manifest once a flower has bloomed and a hostile approaches the plant with harmful intentions. Within 15 seconds of the hostile's decision to harm the plant, they will, against their will, start to retreat from the plant before subsequently blacking out. Upon blacking out, a form of light amnesia is inflicted on the hostile, making them forget the exact location of the A-038 instance. This effect even seems to extend to animals.
It is theorized that A-038's anomalous properties have evolved as a form of self-defense, but it's unknown what exactly prompted the anomalous characteristics of such an evolutionary trait. One commonality between all accounts of A-038 test subjects has been the feeling of being "overpowered" by the flower, indicating that it may have a semblance of sentience, as well as psychic prowess. The Group has found that the petals of a flower from A-038 have anomalous psychoactive properties once they are refined, although the exact mechanism by which they work is still unknown. Specific strains of A-038 have been cultivated for different applications requiring a psychological anomalous agent, such as Amnesia Inducment Devices (AIDs), NOCTIS Serum, and much more.
