since noori is sort of here sometimes, I'll just give my/her opinion 
well wait first, I've a question. I think Gumy counts as our magical entity, and it wouldn't be fair to keep him and add another. So we need to consider whether we're wanting to remove gumby in light of something more, or keep Gumby. Here are a replacement idea:
I love the water nymph idea. She could be the initiator for the Desert's members, like an echo of the god's who chose the two current queens. She could also be the communicator of the Desert's health, for example if there's a drought she will be sick, if there are few members she will be sick, and if there are plenty of members, she will be strong and bold and powerful. Of course, this now sounds like she'd probably need a player, but as long as she isn't directly involved with decisions but is more of a stoic, physical representation of the Deserts, we wouldn't have a problem.
