Description
After feeling the bite of Akunda so many times, static electricity causes your hair to stand on end as you hold in your hands an intact lightning pod. You noticed that by wrapping the lightning pod in it's own leaves, you were able to remove it without discharging it. If you manage to develop this technique, harvesting this plant would become significantly less hazardous and provide additional material in pristine condition.
