Anisiad

Anasiads live in the desert. They might be spotted among at cactus rings on desert plains, or amid a desert oasis.  Individual anasiads often grow fixated with a single type of sand. Over time, such a resident anasiad often becomes connected with their desert home through sightings and stories, becoming a guardian of the place and, in effect, a manifestation of its personality.

Desert Collectors. Curious by nature, anasiad often seek out what the deserts claim. As a result, they might be found among abandoned caravans and desert battle fields sifting through the remains for whatever catches their eye. Living creatures aren’t exempt from this curiosity, either. Anasiads are known to befriend desert creatures, or even to keep modest menageries. The occasional star-crossed castaway has even been known to become part of such collections.

Anasiads

Divine servants that inhabit unspoiled corners of the world, some anasiads protect places of natural power and infuse their surroundings with the magic of Nyx.  others embody violent aspects of nature. In either case, anasiads generally avoid other sapient creatures, preferring to mind the cycles of nature, the daily interplay of wild animals, or other cosmic forces. Occasionally, though, groups of the same kind of anasiads congregate in a place of natural power or beauty. In times of special need, deities tied to facets of nature might employ anasiads as messengers, guardians, or scouts.

Immortal Nature. A ansiad doesn’t require food, drink, or sleep.
