Message Bloom | Critical Role Wiki

A Message Bloom is a magical seed that pulses when the user wants to send a message through it. When planted in soil and watered, it will convey the message. Once it has done so, the bloom withers and crumbles.^[1]

Orym's seed was approximately fist-sized and bloomed into a large flower with multiple layers of bright blue and purple petals.^[2]

History[]

The seed was given to Orym by Tetrarch Thrascuur of the Qoniira Tetrarchy in Niirdal-Poc.^[3] Orym carried it in his pouch until it began pulsing when the party was nearing their battle to destroy the Malleus Key at the Tishtan excavation site. They planted and watered it, and within a few seconds it sprouted into a large flower which conveyed Keyleth's voice telling Orym the Ashari were coming to aid Bells Hells.^[4]

Days later, after several battles and adventures on different continents, Orym offered the remaining fragments of the seed to Deanna, and using them (as well as an illusory visual reference) the cleric was able to Scry on Keyleth. Once she finished, Deanna Mended the pieces of the seed in order to return a single object that Orym could keep.^[5]

The seed was left by the side of the trail when Imogen Temult cast Magic Mouth on it in order to leave a message for Keyleth or other allies trying to catch up to them, directing them to Kreviris.^[6]

Trivia[]

Though Thrascuur didn't know its exact origins beyond the fact that it was meant for Orym,^[7] the halfling's Message Bloom seed helped create a connection with Keyleth for the Scrying spell, because Orym said that Keyleth gave him the seed.^[8] How the seed got from Keyleth to Thrascuur has not been explained.
