Ash Yam (Morrowind)

The ash yam is a tough and tuberous root. The root itself has a red and brown color, tipped with several dark green leaves. A remarkable part of the ash yam are the three rather big brown leaves sticking out on top of the root. Ash Yams grow commonly in the Ascadian Isles and is a favored vegetable by its inhabitants. Bad-Tongues claims that "Ash Yams have the strongest smell near Ralyn Othravel in Ghostgate." Whether that smell comes from Ralyn himself or the equipment he carries is unknown. Ash Yams can fortify strength and intelligence, and grant a resistance to disease. Ash Yams can also be used in Detect Life potions.
