Fear Gortach

In actual Irish mythology the Fear gorta is a phantom that roams the land causing extreme hunger where it goes. The Fantasy Bestiary turned it into a hunger-causing grass. Its version effects people and animals that go through it but not fly over it. Animals will in instinctively avoid this type of grass cuasing penalties to anyone trying to take an animal through it.
One must eat some form of food while crossing this grass less it cause great weakness. Neither Biology (Botany) nor magic can distinguish this from normal grass. The only way to get rid of this grass is to kill it at the root.
==The Hunger==
The FP lost via The Hunger is not regained until the victim has eaten a full meal, at least 20 minutes worth. If the victim‘s FP falls to 0 while crossing the fear gortach, he will never wake up unless removed by an outside agency. This turns this into something similar to the poppy field in Wizard of Oz (1939).
