Rocatari

A Rocatari is a dangerous plant, also known as the "whore's rosebush" (Chapter 70). It is found in the forest behind Majik's Academia.

History
In Chapter 69, Blue is attached by a Rocatari, and subsequently becomes affected by its toxins, as a prank by Kyuin. Kara rescues him from the plant, chopping it down, and the two engage in sex to reduce its withdrawal symptoms.

Description
The Rocatari is a viney plant with a spotted flower bulb. The flower bulb has thick petals, and a thick amber nectar inside that smells sweet but is flavorless.

The Rocatari ensnares animal and humanoid victims, wrapping them in its vines and digging thorns into the skin. A pollen cloud is also released. Both the pollen and thorns have a sweet-tasting toxin, causing the skin to become inflamed and targeting the hormones. Symptoms of an affected individual include:


 * Rapid, shallow breathing
 * Pupils blown very wide
 * An internal fever, which is not dangerous
 * Muscular pain
 * Body aches
 * Congestion
 * Headache
 * Extremely increased sex drive
 * A "high", where the affected is loopy and has no inhibitions

The toxin in the Rocatari cannot be treated in any meaningful way, other than pulling out as much as possible from the wounds and attempting to ride the high until it ends. Withdrawal symptoms can be very bad, especially if the affected is unable to have sex during this time.

Unless its roots are dug up, a Rocatari will survive being cut down or harvested. It will not sprout, however, for another two years at least.

Uses
The nectar from the Rocatari's bulb works well as a lubricant.
