Castor plants - LuigiThirty - 08-02-2017
It’s everything we love: a new poison, a new plant for botanists, and a wacky reagent.
Add Castor seeds to the seed fabricator, hidden behind the hacker switch. Castor plants produce castor beans. These beans have been genetically modified to remove the ricin content.
Syndicate botanists have access to Off-Brand castor seeds. They’re identical to regular castor except that these beans, if eaten raw or distilled, dose you with ricin, a potent poison reagent. Nasty.
Regular castor beans can be put into the still to produce Castor Oil, which makes the consumer vomit a few seconds after drinking it. It also makes you puke up a bee larva if you’ve got one inside you. Castor Oil can also be put on food as a condiment, I guess. Stealth clown buff.

Beans should make you fart. Like eggs.

Should ricin be a reagent, or a disease transmitted LIKE a reagent?
EDIT: Also from the wikipedia, ricin is apparently WAY more effective when inhaled. Is there a way to make it more deadly when smoked as opposed to eaten?

I think it’s all just INGESTed. I could start adding castor but I’m no good at spriting.
