These citrus fruits contain high levels of vitamin C, which is necessary for the body to function but difficult to get while at sea. As a result, Lemon Leshies are considered good luck by sailors, and are frequently taken on board by Driftwood Leshies before departing for open water. \n'b' Gin was first developed as a medicinal drink, and only later became commonly consumed for its alcoholic properties. Prior to the creation of gin, juniper was also a common medicinal herb, thought to ward off the bubonic plague, as well as a general cure-all. \n'b' The Jumping Cholla leshy is one of the few types of leshy that can propagate on its own, forming clones from its dropped stems. \n'b' These leshies tend to stay around their colony until a passing creature or adventurer helps carry them away to form a new colony all their own. \n'b' Jumping Cholla leshy may even stay in their cacti form, in an attempt to avoid combat while getting carried to a new location. \n'b' Cholla cacti are a common sight in the American southwest, forming stands of formidable cacti with large, barbed spines. The cacti within these colonies arise as clones of older cacti, growing from detached stems rather than seeds or fruits. Of the many species of cholla, the jumping cholla is perhaps the best known, thanks to the lasting impression it leaves on those that encounter it. Jumping cholla earn their name due to the ease with which its stems detach from the main body \xe2\x80\x93 even a light touch can leave you pierced by spines and a stem attached to your skin. \n'b' The Jumping Cholla leshy thrives in deserts, surviving conditions that would leave even other cacti struggling. Their robust nature makes them ideal companions for desert-dwelling druids, though stand-alone settlements of leshies are also common. Jumping Cholla Leshies have also been found to care for their weaker but equally spiky cousins, the teddy-bear cholla.'
