Ord Gored Durnst Topp Welp Gorn

Man Woman
??? or "Man Woman" is one of the oddities of Ord. These plants are succulents that look like a human brain in both size and shape, but are more purple in hue.

The juices of this plant which are both antiseptic and analgesic would be exceedingly bitter if taken orally. Most often the "leaves" are harvested, mashed with a small amount of water, the solution is then strained and left to thicken into a paste which takes about two hours when exposed to the sun, or in winter months the gelatinous broth is placed in a copper bowl and left beside a fire, producing the same results. The paste is then slathered onto the injury and wrapped with leather (which has been soaked in the pre-paste solution).

All Ordish are "Healers" when preparing and applying such a poultice. For this reason, this is the closest Ordish men will come to the things of women and hence the name given to this plant.
