While poking around the Haunted Conservatory, you notice a large earthen pot with a single sprout growing out of it, labeled "Mandrake".
You've heard of mandrake before: it's supposedly a very magical plant, whose root has a humanoid shape. When pulled from the ground, it screams -- a horrible banshee wail that has been known to kill those who hear it outright. It is, however, indescribably useful in all manner of potions and recipes, and you find yourself unable to resist the temptation.
You steel your every nerve, gather every ounce of willpower, and, teeth gritted and eyes clamped shut, you yank the sprout out of its pot.
It turns out to be a mislabeled potato, and the only scream you hear is your own one of fear and tension. You black out from the stress and give yourself a nasty concussion on the stone floor.
