Is it possible to make a plant perform an interaction?

EG, a plant that turns the consumer into a vampire?

No, but plant materials can have syndromes that are consumable, leading to the effect you want.

  For my flame spitting flowers, I have a slow vermin creature that is structured like a plant, and an identical plant that has the same name, tile, biome, and even calls to the materials used by the creature (which itself uses plant material templates), it is a little out of date though and uses the old material breath attack format.

If I update it I could make it truly immoble.

Maybe that the dwarves never died and everyone is just shunning them.

I ended up just using a syn_ingested, then made an interaction that did the exact same thing but was dummied out so I can test enhanced dwarves in fortress mode

now I can brew potions that permanently buff a dwarf's strength

since you are doing science on this matter, if a dwarf drinks one potion and say gets a perm boost to str. then drinks another one, does those buffs stack?
