Part of Buddhist Mythology The Nariphon is a type of magical Tree which bears fruit in the shape of Human Females. It was said that should a Man eat of such fruit they would fall fast asleep for months an lose their ''impotence and masculinity''. Grown and tended to by Monks, the legends seems to have bee aimed at their Initiates to keep them pure of ''heart and mind''. Other Myths have The Nariphon ''Fruit'' (after becoming ripe), actually becoming alive as Females. Identical in every way, save one, they have no bones. They are allowed to live among Men for 7 days, after which they die.
