About Moss
Moss grows on Aqueduct Towers. It is used for various Research, but also used in Chemistry and Mutagenics and some tests, like in the Test of the Humble Priests rituals. Moss gets its properties from the tower where it grows, and those might change slightly whenever someone drinks from the tower where they grow.
100 Fuzzy Moss is needed for Plantation Headquarters. (Can be any type of moss with "Fuzzy" in the name.)
Moss Growth
After a tower has been harvested of moss, there is no moss for a while. It will slowly produce one new Moss at a decreasing rate until it reaches 49, then it stops. It starts with 3 minutes for the first moss, then 7, 13, 17, 23, 27 and probably continues like that until 49 moss are present.
Time needed for moss to grow on a harvested tower:
| Number of Moss | Teppy time needed | Teppy minutes per moss | Verified |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3m | 3m | Yes (actually 2.5 Teppy minutes, so watch out for rounding errors below) |
| 2 | 10m | 5m | Yes |
| 3 | 23m | 8m | Yes |
| 4 | 40m | 10m | Yes |
| 5 | 63m | 13m | Yes |
| 6 | 90m | 15m | Yes |
| 7 | 123m | 17m | Yes |
| 20 | 16h40m | 50m | Estimated |
| 35 | 2d3h3m | 1h27m | Estimated |
| 49 | 4d4h3m | 2h2m | Estimated |
Moss Harvesting
To harvest moss off of a tower, click on the tower and select "Harvest the moss." Harvesting moss does not change the tower moss properties, only drinking from the tower does. The moss that grows back from a freshly harvested tower retains all the properties of the just-harvested moss (unless a blessing has altered the stats)
Types
Moss can have any of the following attributes:
- Calico
- Crackly
- Dry
- Fuzzy (usually the hardest to attain, please do not drink from a tower with this attribute)
- Green
- Hairy
- Mottled
- Phosphorescent
- Prickly
- Reticulated
- Slimy
- Smelly
- Spongy
- Spotted
- Striped
A moss can have no attributes, and it is then "common" moss, and cannot be harvested.
Changing Moss Stats
Note: a great deal is still unknown about how the moss system works exactly. Please update this page as more becomes known.
All towers begin with the stat "Green", which can be changed when someone blesses (drinks from) an aqueduct. You can bless an aqueduct as much as you want, but a character can only modify any tower attributes once every teppy minute (see Changelog 28/03/2020). When someone blesses a tower, they can add and/or remove one or more attributes. To preserve the attributes of a tower while drinking from it, for example a tower with sought after "Fuzzy" moss, make sure you drink from another tower within 1 teppy minute before.
The effect on moss attributes is avatar specific, not tower specific. When blessing aqueducts, it is helpful to track your changes to understand what your effect is. It is possible to add and remove the same attribute.
Repeated blessings (at least one minute apart) by the same avatar may show additional attributes after many blessings.
Avatar Moss Chart
This is a chart to show which avatars affect the various moss attributes. Please add your information below. '
- + means you've ever added that attribute
- - you have never added that attribute and have removed it at least once
- +/- if you have both added and removed the attribute
- Leave blank if you've never added or removed the attribute.
