But other plants in the family could be used if Haldina is in short supply. Or simply try to bind the monster with cloth dyed with madder (another coffee relative). | |

It doesn't even have to be a bullet, it's just that firing it from a gun gets it on target with enough speed, accuracy, and quantity to do the job. | |

| Dec 27, 2018 at 17:58 | comment | added | Cyn | Ha ha! @JoeBloggs Though I have to point out that the OP asked about wood and not about bullets. A wooden stake from this tree might do it too, though it would be hard to get close enough. | |

| Dec 27, 2018 at 17:08 | comment | added | Cyn | That might also work, depending on the structural elements. Or use ground coffee as part of the gunpowder. Or dip regular bullets in strong coffee drinks and let them dry before using. Though I like the wooden bullets :-) | |
