Snowberries, Deadly Nightshade, Daphne and other poisonous berries

I think it would be great if we got some poisonous berry bushes added to the game.

We already have poisonous mushrooms, but all berries are edible! I would like it if there were some more poisonous plants in the game, so you would have to pay more attention to what you stuff in your mouth. Since berry bushes have recently been reworked, now seems like a good time to add these.

I do understand that this is a time investment, so I understand if the devs would prefer focussing on other things for now.

I was just mentioning this to my hunter friend yesterday...in part because I miss the random hunter outbursts that always ensued when said hunter ate a tasty-looking berry without checking to make sure it was actually edible first.

I wonder if they’ll include features like that in the upcoming Herbalism update. I’d love to see more poisonous plants, such as poison berries or even poison ivy growing on side of trees or ruins that cause itchy status effects when touched. I can already imagine the hilarious ways to prank my friends, much like when some sneak death cap mushrooms into meals for the less attentive to accidentally eat it. It's been a source of plenty of laughs and frustrated sighs in my group so I’m definitely all for adding more features like that ideally through new forms and methods of poisoning each other. Can imagine poison berries would make some people second guess themselves when out foraging for food. The idea of making poison arrows would be neat if they could stun or slowly kill a prey so I wouldn't have to chase them across a great distance anymore would be a welcomed mechanic.

I don't use that one mod, I think I remember passing up on trying that one because some other mods I like using conflicting with this one.
