Well the simplest ones are: Eat the apple of Datura or consume much belladonna, the deadly variety.

Yeah- belladonna is deadly nightshade. There  is a crapload of nightshade on our property, and nightshade berries kill livestock on a regular basis, as much as five or six a day. Much of the poison induced death is during the summer, when it is producing most of its berries. Actually, youd be surprised as to how much belladonna you have to eat. Only three chewed leaves off a small plant will kill a large sized adult. A whole plant will kill a 1200 pound steer, and much of a plant will kill a goat. Goats seem to digest things slower, and the fluid comes a little slower, so they seem to suffer more when they die. Nightshade kills you by filling you up with fluids and stopping your heart.

belladonna can actually be used to help headaches. Has to be prepared carefully and only one part of the plant can be used. But it works. A friend of mine uses it and I've read about it's ability to help headaches in a few books. Still I think  I would stay away from it untill someone trained me to use it Smiley

I agree with you Crater_Caster. I think it's good stuff to know too.

Most of the plants like that have dualities, they can be deadly or can be medicinal when used to prepared the proper way.

And Mikeel, I have kukri much like the one in your avatar!

Foxglove can be bought in nurseries. It contains digitalis, which is used to restore heart rythyms medicanally. Of course, too much, and there goes your heart! Shocked
  Interesting thing about nightshade. Its a direct relative of toamato, potato, and eggplant. Tongue

Foxglove grows rampantly in parts of Newfoundland around the coast. If prepared improperly it can be quite deadly.

Potatoes have the same poison in them as is in belladonna, I think it becomes potent when the potato is beginning to rot, and I think it is in the eyes of the potato as well...but Im not sure.

I know you said plants, but if you desire a cool pet or two then there are certain frogs that secrete hallucanigens and poisons, this was used by native americans and primitive tribes found in South America and Africa.

I believe deadly nightshade is actually in the aconite family.

Knowing what is poisonous is useful - making poisons is dangerous and somewhat pointless in todays society.

Killing something simply for the sake of killing it is wasteful and psychotic.

ok ive been doing a bit of research into this lately and I have come across a couple of historical uses of acronite (monkshood or wolfbane) as blade poison.

The first example was its use by the Ainu, an ancient people who live in the North of Japan. They made the poison by mixing the juice of the crushed roots with fat and then applied it to bone arrow heads that had a special notch to hold the poison.

The second was its use by some North American Indian tribes who used it to hunt whales. It was coated on their harpoons and the legend goes that it ws made by mixing the plant juice with the fat of dead whalers.
