Losgadh (loos gig)

Losgadh, the Burning Dryad and Harbinger of Wildfires for the Court of Cinder and Ash, is a figure of both devastation and resilience. She serves the Ashen Lady with a fiery grace, her very existence embodying the destructive beauty of flame and the fragile persistence of life that clings even to the ashes.   Losgadh’s appearance reflects the fate of her charred tree. Her skin is dark and cracked, resembling the blackened bark of a tree ravaged by fire, with veins of molten orange glowing faintly within the fissures, as if embers still burn beneath the surface. Her hair flows in smoldering strands, flickering at the ends like licks of flame, and her eyes blaze with an intense golden light that mirrors the heart of a wildfire. Her limbs are slender and angular, with fingers that end in glowing, ember-like tips, leaving trails of heat and smoke in their wake.   She moves with a dancer’s grace, her steps both mesmerizing and destructive. Wherever she walks or dances, the ground is marked by glowing embers and faint wisps of smoke, the promise of wildfire smoldering just beneath the surface. Her presence is warm and suffocating, like standing too close to a roaring blaze, yet there is a hypnotic allure to her every movement, a primal beauty in her dance of destruction.   Losgadh’s attire is woven from ashes and soot, shifting and shimmering like smoke caught in the wind. Her garments seem alive, writhing and changing shape as she moves, their edges glowing with a fiery brilliance that matches her burning form. Around her waist and wrists are ornaments crafted from charred wood and volcanic glass, symbols of her bond with the Court of Cinder and Ash.   As the Harbinger of Wildfires, Losgadh is both feared and revered within the court. She embodies the cleansing power of fire, spreading flames that consume the old and stagnant to make way for new growth. Her loyalty to the Ashen Lady is absolute, and she carries out her role with both fervor and elegance, treating each wildfire as a ritual of rebirth and transformation. She dances through forest and field with an almost careless abandon, leaving trails of embers that can smolder for days before erupting into roaring infernos.   Though she appears destructive, there is a deeper philosophy to Losgadh’s nature. She understands fire as both a destroyer and a creator, a force that balances life and death. Her connection to her burned tree—a symbol of survival amidst devastation—gives her a unique perspective on the cycles of destruction and renewal. Despite her fiery role, she carries a quiet melancholy, a lingering memory of the vibrant life she once embodied as a green and thriving dryad.   Losgadh is not only a servant of the court but also a force of nature. Her presence signals both an end and a beginning, a reminder that fire, while devastating, is also a necessary part of the world’s endless cycle. To encounter Losgadh is to witness the beauty and terror of the flames that consume and purify, and to feel the inescapable pull of the wildfires she brings.
