14.🌹 Specimen: The Bloodfang

🌿 Field Description Crimson petals flare like blades around a central pod, its lips pulled tight over gleaming white fangs. The Bloodfang appears both beautiful and dangerous, drawing eyes to its vivid bloom before revealing the threat hidden at its heart. Its roots twist from the soil like sinews, curling upward as if hungry to grasp. Witnesses claim the flower emits a faint metallic scent, reminiscent of rust or blood left too long in the air. Once noticed, it is difficult to look away, as if the plant itself wills the gaze to linger.

🧪 Habitat & Folklore Said to appear where violence has stained the earth, thriving on echoes of conflict. Folklore claims its fangs are sharpened on memory itself.

💀 Warnings Do not approach too closely—the fangs can pierce skin. Prolonged exposure may cause the taste of iron on the tongue and restless dreams of teeth.

🎨 Sculptor’s Note Hand-sculpted and one of a kind, captured in full bloom with crimson petals and a fanged heart.
