Alraune Family / Plant Type

Habitat: meadows within the Reptile Kingdom

Disposition: lustful, strong-willed

Diet: nutrients from the soil, man's spirit energy, sometimes meat

A peculiar type of plant Mamono with a stiff trunk and a number of flower-women. The flower-women have peculiar reptilian features - ear frills, draconic hands and horns (pun intended). The flowers have 5 petals that form a tight seal. Ordinary alraune do exist, but Snapdragon alraunes produce a unique type of Alraune Nectar. This nectar is saturated in RE, which increases a mamono's savage aspects.

Their disposition is almost exactly like that of a normal Alraune. Although they have the word "dragon" in their names and they look like dragons, they are lacking in arrogance. They just want a good man to pollinate with. Their nectar produces a sweet scent that attracts men. Once a man is drawn to the snapdragon, the flower-woman bends down and grabs the man with vines. After the man is dragged into the flower, it snaps closed.

Honeybees attack the unresisting snapdragons for their unique nectar. Although they are unaffected by the reptilian energy, the unique flavour of it's honey is an attractive proposition for some kinds of reptilian mamono and beasts.

Technically, they aren't reptiles, but these flowers have the characteristics of reptiles. Because the spread seeds far and wide, they are sometimes found outside of the Reptile Kingdom. Most of the snapdragons are devoured by herbivorous beasts so they have a unique trick against the reptilian beasts. They can actually spit a toxic form of nectar into an attacker's face, blinding or killing it.

Snapdragons grow healthier and bigger the more men copulate inside of the flowers. They accumulate many men as they grow. Gravity and the ability to get men limit the maximum height of the plant. The sight of a grown Snapdragon with many copulating flower pairs is said to be an obscence, arousing spectacle.
