Yulatola is a plant found throughout western-central Wisteria. It grows exclusively in volcanic portions of the Atlas Mountains and their foothills, such as the Hellmaw, and is considered a rare herb which resists cultivation. Yulatola shrubs are hardy against drought and cold. The berries and leaves are ascribed medicinal uses, particularly in the treatment of hypothermia or diseases caused by exposure to cold and wet conditions.

By the 17th century ASM, druids of the Secrets of Nature and Cult of the Stormseers circles used Yulatola in their rite of passage rituals, where young druids who had proven worthy were to initiate themselves on the path toward joining The Star-Counters. The plant's woody stems and leaves were used in the preparation of an incense for that rite, and the berries formed the primary constituent of a fermented beverage which is consumed as a part of it.
