Buried Moonlight
Description
This herb is not a specific variety of plant, but rather it refers to a phenomenon that occurs in the roots of trees when they burrow into the right areas of the ground. While it is common for roots to hang from the ceilings of some caves, it is a much rarer occurrence for them to become suffused with the magic of the earth, causing them to emit a pale, but rather pleasant light - something that will happen to you too if you rub this herb on yourself, as well as anyone you manage to touch. Those who have eaten the herb have described its effects as calming, as well as a source of amusement by using their light trails to draw rather…rude shapes and messages.
Effect. For the next 8 hours after using this herb, you glow with a pale light reminiscent of moonlight, even when invisible. While glowing in this way, you shed bright light in a 5-foot radius around you, and dim light for a further 10 feet beyond that. In addition, any creature that you touch or succeed in a melee weapon attack against also glows with this same light until the end of your next turn.
