In the court of the Crimson Moss

CRIMSON MOSS (#8/28, #39/365) [TTHA] 

Appearance: This is a thick, luxuriant crimson-coloured moss with fleshy, lobe-like leaves.

Distribution: Wilderness, volcanic areas, deserts and plains across Titan.

 

Effects: Also known as Blood Moss, a bunch of Crimson Moss is mildly carnivorous, and when placed on skin, will drain 1 STAMINA point from the victim. However, the Crimson Moss will then turn this meal of blood into a healing salve in a process that takes an hour. When applied to a wound or injury, such a prepared patch of moss will restore 1-6 STAMINA points to the recipient.

 

Cost: City 10gp, Town 13gp, Village 17gp (per bunch)

 

Availability: Rare

 

Further Notes: A large growth of Crimson Moss has been recorded from the summit of Firetop Mountain, along with Redweed (see p. XX) and Sleeping Grass (see The Titan Herbal, p. 60). It is also found growing in the demonic Pit; even, as rumour would have it, upon the spires of the Palace of Agony!
