Forester Razor Grass

Summary

Forester Razor Grass is a variety of Razor Grass native to the wetter and more densely forested areas of the Wilderun region in central Tor'Saarn. It is not as tall as many of the other Razor Grass varieties, however it is no less sharp. A particular point of frustration caused by this plant is its preference for taking root in divets in the trucks of trees and rock walls, where it lies awaiting the climbing hand of an unprepared adventurer as they try to hike the trails of the Wilderun Ranges.

Appearance

The Forester Razor Grass variety grows in thick tufts of flat, forest green blades with razor sharp edges and slanted tips. These tufts are sparse, often only one or two are connected to the same root system. The tufts are short when compared to the plants relatives, standing at about 10-30cm tall. These plants are often seen hanging from large rocks and trees, particularly near running water.

Uses, Relevance and History

Forester Razer Grass has proven to be a more seldom encountered yet even greater nuisance than its cousins. The plant grows almost exclusively on large trees and rock walls, often out of the immediate sight of climbers. Unprotected hands are shredded quite often by the plants leaves, and on more than one occasion inexperienced adventurers have fallen to their grievous injury or death after a brush with this surprisingly deadly plant.
