❁ STORY
~~━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━~~

The air is still. Not even the tiniest breeze so much as stirs a grain of sand. Just the barest hint of another dry lightning storm hangs static over the silent dunes. When the first flashes illuminate the peaks of distant mountains, catching the tops of conductive spires in brilliant glittering moments, it becomes a race against time for those wandering the ever-shifting miles of sand to find shelter, lest the wrath of Stormcatcher fall upon the unprepared.

The Expanse is unforgiving, a place where only the hardiest can eke out survival, let alone a life, and yet Mossmere managed. Sprung from the desert like just another cactus, Mossmere took root and even flourished; his magic is the kind of thing that was unusual in the lands of the Stormcatcher, where logic and reason tend to take precedence over the inexplicable of magic. And so Mossmere’s oasis – bound to him, part of him, perhaps they are one and the same – was the sort of thing that occasioned comment. Not always the favourable kind.

Moss has never really explained why he (and his oasis) packed up and left the Shifting Expanse, but rumours abound that Stormcatcher himself chased him out; too much of Gladekeeper in his magic for the God of Lighting. It’s a good story.

The Reliquary might not ever need an oasis for the lost to ride out deadly lightning storms, but there are other, gentler needs. His oasis still exists, a place only accessible by those Mossmere allows entry, those who need it, but now that need is a little different. Now, it’s a place where Osprey can grow new types of plants to meet the needs of the clan’s vegetarians, it’s a place for folks to go if they need a little bit of quiet where no one can find them, it’s a place with healing waters for those who need aid beyond what Fen can give them (the unearthly kind of healing).

Many dragons in the Reliquary seek out Mossmere for one reason or another, very few are those he counts as his friends. There are even fewer guests who he tolerates. The problem with being able to provide what folks need means that some seek him out to make pleas, things they claim to need as much as the air they breathe. (This is a plight Yolmir and Shiana both sympathise with.)

Unlike Shiana (who simply refuses flat out to grant requests) and Yolmir (who exacts a price the wish-maker might have cause to regret later), Mossmere finds pleasure in doing something… similar to what was asked of him. Should you be hungry for a wheel of cheese? Well here is one too large to carry, or perhaps too small to be filling. You need a companion for your travels? He plucks a snail from his garden and bestows it upon you. You seek riches beyond fathom? Who can possibly fathom the worth of this particular shiny rock. He takes his amusement in distorting the wishes of others more so than causing them actual harm, but he doesn’t take kindly to anger.

And to disappear into his oasis is to disappear forever.

❁ OTHER
~~━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━~~

ORIGIN / Legend has it there’s a great oasis somewhere in the Shifting Expanse. A place that only appears to the lost and delirious, for those who need it. It’s because of this theory that most don’t believe it exists. Few claim to have seen it, those who do all tell different accounts of location and description they talk of entering in the middle of the dunes and exiting overlooking the Sea; many whisper of loved ones who got lost in the desert and came back changed – if at all. The Shimmering Oasis doesn’t give up its secrets lightly, nor its guests.

Fact / His antennae are sensitive to what folks need, not what they want or hope for, but the things in life that they cannot live without. Rumour has it, that’s how the Shimmering Oasis always appeared to those lost in the desert. In fact, it’s said that this antennae magic is so powerful that only those who truly need his help can even see him, to everyone else, he’s just heat haze. Now that he lives in the Reliquary, it’s a gift that he can put to use in monitoring quality of life. Should he choose to.

Likes / Sand. He is most often found in the south of the canyon, where the grassy plains turn into desert. It reminds him of home. Loves fruit, the juicier the better.

Dislikes / Rain, there was little of it in the Expanse and whenever it so much as drizzles Moss always heads for cover. Enjoys company, but too much or too loud and he’ll retreat to somewhere softer.

Interests / Absolutely fascinated by how the eyes and mind can play tricks. While not real big on getting engaged in clan affairs, he makes an excellent one-on-one listener for those with worries or troubles. Moss can even be quite good at reassurances and practical ways to work through things. Sometimes.
