A clear oil pressed from the Pentanoth, a kelp native to warm ocean shallows,growing up to 20' long and having a cluster of five broad blue leaves,causes coma (1-4 days); at minimum, it caused loss of will (6-12 hours). As the minimum effect was frequently more desirable, many users cutted the dosage level. Raw pentanoth had the same effects, but was a bit weaker.Boiling altered the toxin, making pentanoth a flavorful,
slightly intoxicating delicacy in some cultures.
