The Gulthias Tree was the first Gulthias Blight. It is a tree that grew from the stake piercing the heart of the vampire Gulthias. These blights consider all creatures either servants or fertilizer for the blights’ corruption.

The Sunless Citadel[edit]

[5] the Sunless Citadel long ago fell into the earth. Within its ruined halls is the Twilight Grove. At the center of this grove is the Gulthias Tree, an evil plant that produces fruit twice a year. The first (summer) fruit heals and cures disease. The second fruit (winter) causes necrotic damage, and if planted, produce blights. The Gulthias tree is protected and shephered by Belak, a outcast druid.

Barovia[edit]

[6] The Gulthias Tree grew from the steak used to kill an ancient vampire, Gulthias. It creates blights all over Barovia Ravenloft.

Found in Adventures[edit]
