Parrot Poppy
Description
A bright flower that comes in a wide variety of red, blue, yellow, and green shades, much like its namesake animal. Regardless of its actual color, the stem boasts a number of hollow seed pods that when shaken or blown in the wind, produces a perfect mimicry of a certain sound usually found on a coast. How these seed pods manage to find these sounds is unknown, but it is widely believed that they are used to attract animals and other pollinators to themselves.
Effect. As an action, you may shake this herb, causing it to emit a sound that is audible up to 100 feet away. This sound is randomly determined by rolling a d6 each dawn as shown in the table below. A creature hearing this sound may make a DC 12 Wisdom (Insight) check to determine if it is a mimicry or not. Parrot Poppy Sound Table d6 Sound A strong gust of wind. Sea birds squawking. Waves breaking on the beach. A cloud of insects buzzing. Footsteps crunching on sand. The tinkling of a ship’s bell.
