OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To create a Sithspawn species that can be cultivated for various means including but not limited to: subterfuge, spy work, creation of personal items that grant the wearer special abilities, and augmentation of semi-sentient "watchers" to non-sentient Sithspawn, etc. This submission and future submissions along this vein are an attempt to bring more richness to RP for botanical species PCs and those who plot with them.

Madrona A’Mia
- Name: Bellis Perennis Videre // aka "Peeping Daisies"
- Origins: Altered from living botanical and mammalian flesh into a unique Sithspawn creation by A'Mia Madrona.
- Other Locations: Wherever it has been sold and cultivated by interested parties. This botanical Sithspawn also has a penchant for invasive growth if misplaced somewhere with ample full spectrum light, water and mild dark side signatures in which to flourish.
- Classification: Flower // semi-sentient Sithspawn
- Average Growth Cycle: This creature is perennial and can continue to flourish in an area with little care for several years. If left to a natural calendar cycle, they bloom for three months out of a twelve month year. However, when under the influence of a Sith alchemy practitioner or someone with similar abilities, they can remain vibrant indefinitely provided that their need for light, water and energy is met.
- Viability: These flowers are hardy and prolific once fully grown, needing little more than broad spectrum light at least five hours a day, meager water and a trace amount of dark side energy.
- Description: A daisy-like bloom with an eye at the center. Most commonly cream white or rich purple, but the can be designed in a variety of colors.
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
- Average Height: 8 cm (this variety is round and flat)
- Average Length: 8 cm (this variety is round and flat)
- Color: The petals are most commonly cream white or deep purple, though variations can be created for specific aesthetic requests. The eyes at the center can range in size, color, and general description- as many types of eyes that can exist in the galaxy might be represented at the center of these ominous creations.
- Nutritional Value: They are technically edible, though would be deemed bitter and unpleasant to eat by most species.
- Toxicity: Technically non-toxic, though side-effects may include belching uncontrollably, experiencing random memories that do not belong to the one that consumed the plant, and in rare case, uncontrollable babbling. These side effects tend to subside within twenty-four hours of consumption.
- Other Effects: No effects from skin contact, see above for side-effects of ingestion. This plant is not classified as medical.
- Distinctions: These organisms are Sithspawn and therefor can be crafted in a wide variety of colors, with shorter or longer stems, etc.
- Exquisite Perception: not only does the eye record everything within its field of view, these organisms are also equip with several small tympanum with which to hear anything within a 30 meter radius that makes noise in the range of near human speech frequencies.
- MicroData Storage and Neural-Link Capabilities: the information gathered by these organisms is stored locally within a data-crystal at the center of the creature. A skilled practitioner of biomancy, sorcery, or both botany and slicing could also hope to access the data via neural-link.
- Adjustable Field Of View: these blooms have to ability to open or close their petals at will to best suit their circumstances or task. This is where the organism most shows off semi-sentient status, as individuals are able to be programed with simple directives in mind. They can be encouraged to surveil specific places, people or things, and they can operate with a basic sense of when to be more covert. When the petals are completely open, they can have a 320 degree field of view, however they can also close their petals to be stealthier and take in a narrower range of view.
- Delicate: these flowers are ingenious works of biomancy, but they are still as delicate* as flowers. They must be protected accordingly or planted in spaces they will not be exposed to undue stress or extreme environments.
*The storage data-crystal is less delicate than the rest of the organism, so sometimes the data can survive even if the flower is otherwise destroyed - Wilting: if directly exposed to significant light side energy while having no encasement or protection from it, these eerie blooms wilt and die. Force nullification does not kill them but they will enter into a state of hibernation soon after nullification takes effect and will only "wake" once more when the effect ends.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
In her various roles as Sith Shadow of Kor'ethyr Academy and Lord Seer of Korriban, A'Mia often lamented her inability to be in multiple places at once. This errant thought would soon turn into a hyper-fixation and lead to the first test batches of what would eventually become the new Sithspawn species "Bellis Perennis Videre."
Initially created in her lab at Kor'ethyr Academy, A'Mia would soon begin more widespread production of the creatures. They were one of the very first products that sparked an idea that would grow into her desire to open and operate a full-scale industrial lab. These eerie little flowers were the first of many projects that would springboard the neti into new, grander inventions.
