In the comics, Killmonger later concocted a synthetic version of the herb that granted similar abilities. Another more obviously unworthy character by the name of Erik Killmonger attempted to consume the herb and nearly died from the experience the movie seemed to do away with this more magical angle of being "unworthy", though it was a nice touch to include Killmonger's order to burn the remaining plants and prevent would-be challengers from gaining their powers. His sister Shuri, temporarily found unworthy of the plant's gifts, eventually became enhanced through its properties. T'Challa clearly consumed the Heart-Shaped Herb in order to gain his incredible powers, powers which were stripped from him (and returned) twice in the movie in order to level the playing field against his challengers for the thrown. However, T'Challa's not the only character to consume the herb in the comics. Scientifically, the Heart-Shaped Herb has been found to improve the subject's kinesthetic sense, a sense that allows you to know your location in space and move accordingly basically this amounts to superior control over your own body. This process, if the candidate survives it, grants incredible powers of enhanced speed, agility, strength, endurance, healing, and sensory perception on the level of a Super Soldier it also grants the ability to see in the dark, hear a person's heartbeat, and track by scent. Should they be successful, their body is treated to a poultice made of the Heart-Shaped Herb in the movie, the plant was made into a concoction that was consumed before the candidate was, essentially, buried alive in order to go on a vision quest.
In addition to surviving trial by combat in order to become the Black Panther, the warrior of royal and noble blood must complete a number of other trials to prove their worth.
