Description

Shadowmoss grows where light has never touched - the deepest caves, sealed crypts, and magically darkened chambers. It is darkness given vegetable form, soft as velvet and black as a moonless night. It retreats from light like a living creature.

Magical Properties

Essential for invisibility potions and shadow magic rituals. Can be used to create areas of magical darkness or to enhance stealth enchantments. Some assassin guilds cultivate it for their own purposes.

Harvesting Notes

Must be harvested in complete darkness - any light destroys its magical properties instantly. Use touch alone to locate and gather. Store in lightless containers. The moss whispers in darkness, sharing secrets of shadow.
