Ossani the Healer

I have now written thirteen stories in which my secret sorcerer Ossani the Healer appears, either as the main character or in a secondary role.

 

He first crops up at the tail end of "The Storyteller of Koss" (Summer of Sci-Fi & Fantasy Volume 1) where he is described as: "A tall, cadaverous man, Ossani wore pebble-like lenses over his eyes mounted on a complex construction of wires and leather strapped around the dome of his shaven head."

 

He first appears as a main character in "Ossani the Healer and the Beautiful Homunculus", where he shares honours with Welgar (Welgar the Cursed - Tule Fog Press).

 

His other main appearances are in "The Moneylender of Oriaska" and "Ossani's Apprentice" (Swords & Heroes Quarterly, Spring 2026) and "Ossani's Escape" (Cirsova, Fall, 2026).

 

He also appears in "From the Ashes", along with Welgar again. (Due to be published soon in Savage Realms Monthly - details to follow). 

 

He is a secondary if important character in "Emerging from the Twilit Realms" (Welgar the Cursed - Tule Fog Press)

 

He is a minor if pivotal character in "The Troupe" (Swords & Sorceries: Tales of Heroic Fantasy Volume 8)

 

The following tales have yet to be published: "Ezmiyel the Beggar", "Masks of Deception", "Narcolopsia", and "The Sorcerer's Casket".

 

One day maybe I will collect all these tales into one volume, though I have not given up writing about Ossani yet and there may well be further exploits.
