'''Mosses & Ferns''' is a [[Sage Study|sage study]] in the [[Sage Field|field]] of [[Plant Life (sage field)|Plant Life]], concerning plants that grow in dense green clumps or mats in damp or shady locations. These are seedless plants, distinctive from lichens but including hornworts and liverworts. As stated in the heading, the study also includes ferns. These plants feature prominently in magic and medicine, while often being grown for ornamental purposes.

Both mosses and ferns are limited to forested areas, from the arctic to the equator, so the knowledge is of little value if the character is located in an area of grasslands or desert. Moreover, some of the benefits below cannot be enjoyed in lands that have become intensely cultivated, as sufficient patches of moss or ferns cannot be found. However, it is also true that many buildings are cultivated to be shrouded in moss and many gardens planted to be carpeted with ferns, so that these things will be of use to the character with this knowledge.

== Amateur ==

:Cultivate Ferns & Mosses: gather plant material sufficient for making essential oils, soap, tonics or dye.
:Protective Bracken: allows the character to seek protection from fern growths.
:Seek Bedstead: an ability to find a bank of sylvan moss, that it might be slept upon to gain from its magical qualities.
