sima name: Zoot
sima gender: Female
prompt answer:

Though young, Zoot has very good control over her powers and hasn't accidentally set fire to anything for years. Instead, she intentionally sets fire to things! Zoot mainly functions as a 'lamplighter' of sorts, going around as dusk gathers and setting all the camp's watch-fires alight. It's a job that she inherited from her father, and will someday pass on to her eldest child. Fire gem or no - her family has worked as watch-Simas for generations! The fact her magic helps make her rounds easier is just a bonus! Her powers also come in handy during harvest season. Just before her tribe picks up stakes and goes south for the winter, the few crops they raise are harvested and whatever's left in the fields is torched. Zoot and the other fire-wielding Simas of the tribe are in charge of this. They space themselves evenly around the perimeter of the fields and set several small, controlled fires which burn inward, meet in the middle, then go out. This sort of burning cleanses the earth and clears the way for next year's crops. The nutrients in the ash are easier for the soil to absorb, so more of what has been taken is returned! This, paired with crop rotation and leaving different sectons of the fields fallow at different times, has ensured that Zoot's tribe has always had plenty of food to take with them on their migration! Zoot really enjoys harvest season - seeing the whole tribe come together has always give her a great sense of belonging.

sima name: Marama
sima gender: female
prompt answer: Marama is a gentle, quiet sima, and her wind powers reflect that personality. She rarely makes a sound herself, but she loves music. Around her den, she has hung and collected a variety of windchimes and bells, made of all sorts of materials from shimmering metal to carved wood. In the evenings, she guides the breeze between the chimes, making them sing a delicate, relaxing song to help her tribe wind down at the end of the day and drift off to sleep. She takes great pride in her ability, and feels loved and appreciated for her work.

winner!
