Aasimti
(ah-SEEM-tee)
The spirit of forest leaves and dappled shadows. This tanshi has a long association with the Elderwood in particular, where they are strongest and most prominent.
In DR 1721, Jordo, the Godcaller of the Te’kula, united a fragment of Rai’s hand with an ancient tree, a locus of Aasimit’s power in the Elderwood. The spirit of Rai and Aasimti became entangled, with Rai providing a focus on the material plane to amplify and challenge Aasimti’s power.
In DR 1722, when Grimbaskal attacked the Te’kula seeking the Jade Piece of Rai’s Hand, Aasimti, challenging divine and arcane power through Rai, was able to shift the Te’kula village to a demiplane, protecting it from Grimbaskal.
In DR 1748, the Dunmar Fellowship killed Grimbaskal, and were gifted the Jade Piece of Rai’s Hand, disentangling Aasimti from Rai and returning the Te’kula village to the material plane.
