gillyweed
Aquatic breathing plant
Gillyweed is a fictional magical plant from the Harry Potter series that, when eaten, temporarily gives a person gills and webbed extremities for breathing and swimming underwater.
The term occasionally appears in broader fantasy contexts or as playful slang for any substance with transformative effects: He looked like he'd eaten some gillyweed the way he took to the water.
