Harvested in lands untouched by Newerth's sun, Hellflowers stink of death and are covered in burning thorns. They are prized despite this because the aroma heightens the intellect and induces a sort of battle-frenzy of rapid, powerful attacks. Moreover, the thorns' prick hastens the recovery of magical powers, and when the flower blooms, it sears an enemy's very soul.
