A list of plants used by witchcraftians

Amongst witchcraftians, especially the Circelians, plants are full of potential for potion brewing and spellcasting. Under here is a list of plants categorized by popularity with common uses and meanings attached (if available).

## Common

Plants under this category are known by many people, witches or not. A similarity among them is that they are used widely to solve common problems, such as lighting up a dark place while also decorating or curing common illnesses. Most are easily spotted in nature, and some are farmed in great amounts.

### Moss pamperer

A plant that cohabitates with moss. It encourages exessive growth of moss when planted anywhere since it releases toxins as a byproduct of its phothosynthesis. Without moss, these plants would usually not live for long, as they often grow near small, still bodies of water, and eventually die of their own toxins. This plant makes a good natural insect repellent due to its smell, which in return is pleasant for humans. To use it for this function, it is important to also use some different plant in the same place so as to hinder the expansion of moss and the poisoning of water bodies. People can also use moss pamperer to make growth potions or body-odor repellent.

### Mistbound

They are vines that love dark, damp places, such as in underground caves. They have white, barely see-through flowers, which is a feature considered otherworldly by many witches. Subsequently, the flowers are used for many rituals that involved the world beyond us. Popular rituals with this flower include fortune-telling and communicating with the death. It can also be used to brew a weak see-through potion, which is used by splashing it onto the surface where you wish to look through. Though not rare, the living conditions of this flower make it quite hard to cultivate or harvest from natural sources. They can be brewed into heat-relieving potions for your or your pet's body.

In folk tales and legends, they are often mentioned as a sign where the two worlds connect. As for more recent writings, they are a harbinger of bad luck, such as a sign that you are haunted by a spirit.

### Sun leaf

A plant that absorb sunlight in its leaves. At night, their leaves glow golden light rays that resembles the sun, hence the name. People can use them to light up their house since the light is quite powerful. However, these plants need to be put in the sun all day if you want to use it for a long while at night. If not, they won't glow at all. They also need to be replaced every few months. Naturally, you can find sun leaf plants growing in open fields among tall grass, as they adore the sun. Aside from being a source of light, sun leaf are used in cooking as an addictive. It has a spicy and salty taste to it.

Writers might use sun leaf as a metaphor for warmth and familial love.

### Moonchild

This plant is quite similar to the sun leaf in terms of being a source of light at night. However, these ones glow with their flowers, and they glow on their own. They often grow in shades, such as in caves, under big rocks, or under big, old trees, but not too far from where the sunlight can touch. Both their size and glow are less significant than sun leaf, but they don't require recharging, and don't need to be replaced as they do that on their own. When extracted, this plant provides a liquid that can be used to disinfect wounds. It can also be made into pain and itch relieving potions.

In literature, they are think of as mystic or quiet; they're often used as a metaphor for being a second thought.
