Horyon Fruit Species in World of Arsteria | World Anvil

Horyon Fruit

Found atop the cloud splitting trees and falling often, the Horyon Fruit is one of the many strange Flora found atop the peaks. 
The Fruit itself is quite rare and those daring enough to climb the lethal heights of Noryon Peaks are well rewarded. As an ingredient the Fruit is highly sought after by Arcanists, its addition to food or drink can confer its energy to them. While the seeds of the Fruit are sought by the Arcane Engineers, as its ability to vehemently absorb Energy around it is both dangerous and fascinating.

Basic Information

Anatomy

The Noryon Fruit is a small ovular fruit consisting of small spikes around a disformed core. The skin of each spike contains tiny pits of extremely sharp depressions. The Fruit itself is infused with Ethereal Energy to such a degree that the ages of exposure has led to a unique way to expel its spikes. The Fruits itself is the tiny spikes connected to the core, each contains a set of seeds and a very meaty texture. The core acts as a containment device for the fruits, once it begins to decompose the power it contains is released and the spikey fruits are launched in all directions.

Genetics and Reproduction

The Seeds of the Noryon Fruits consume ethereal/Arcane energy to begin fertilization. They then begin to burrow into the ground and create thick sprouts.

Growth Rate & Stages

From fertilization to full growth and reproduction is a process that can take anywhere from 40-100 years. This is dependant on the levels of Ethereal/Arcane energy present in its area.

Ecology and Habitats

The seeds grow quicker and healthier in areas overflowing with Ethereal/Arcane energy.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

The Noryon Fruit can act as a sort of pick-me-up for Arcanists, as consumption of something containing the fruit infuses the energy into the consumer. The Energy is too potent to consume more than one, and usually the fruits are reduced or dried with efforts to temper the power.
