Grown only in the Bushraki populated asteroid of New Dikamazi, this highly sought-after plant was at the heart of the gang war between the Dikamazi Ventrats and the Chrome Skulls which took place in 932 A.E.

About twenty centimeters high, the plant is thick and viney, bristling with thorns, and, oddly, a metallic substance that seems to be wire. The flower itself is rather large, shaped like a trumpet with flaring, narrow petals graduating from palest purple at the tips to a deep indigo in the center. Strangely, hints of circuitry can be spied on both the petals and the serrated green leaves, opalescent and vague, seeming to shift with every moment that passes. The slender stamen rising from the flower's heart resembles a blinking diode, its light fading in and out like a pulse.

The flowers smell wonderful, carrying an intoxicating, mouth-watering fragrance. When ingested the petals and pollen have hallucinogenic properties.
