Spineleaf Hallucinogen

Succulent type: Leaf succulent (Stores water in its leaves)

This average-sized leaf succulent grows up to 21 feet (6.4 meters) tall. The asymmetrical stem is burgundy, and is covered in copious amounts of rigid olive spines. The finger-like leaves are orange and black. Handfuls of them grow on wide, hazel branches that are short, thin and wispy. The leaves are strong, but do not detach easily.

It is steady-growing, taking 4 years to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a handful of flowers, with solid peach petals decorated with gentle orange lines and a crimson central disk, grow at the top, reappearing after 5 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 24 petals. It has a mildly strong scent that smells like varnish.

The leaf succulent's skin is nearly impenetrable, the copper flesh is waxy, and the indigo sap is thin and has hallucinogenic properties.

It releases hallucinogenic smoke when burned.
It can grow in even the most barren lands.
It is suitable for making strong rope
