Living Roots

MAIN THEME Blade and Silk

The roots are razor-sharp, but in Chelsea’s hands, they can become as soft as tamed animals.

Origin and Manifestations

They respond not to weight, but to intention. They cut through the frightened and wrap harmlessly around the confident. The roots can hold a living torso and open paths that refuse to exist without a marked connection to the earth.

Erotic Nature

Their closeness is physical, but not necessarily predatory. Their embrace reads the rhythm of one’s breath and the desire to resist. The more a person struggles, the sharper the fibers become.

Countermeasures and Cost

Take it slowly and do not squeeze. Fire triggers aggressive growth. Severed roots retain their sensitivity and can be used as weapons; however, prolonged wear creates a habit of wrapping around the sleeping owner.
