Nyxian Sapphire

Type of Material: Gem

Acquired By: Mining (60+)

Rarity: Rare

Details: Found both within the mines of Yurrova and Ironridge, the Nyxian Sapphire is a rare beauty among gems. It is a durable gem, often adorning the armor, weapons, and regalia of Ne’haer’s nobles and council members. It is a dark black gem known for the wonderful patterns its impurities take. Speck like stars adorn the gem, imitating what one sees in the night sky above Ne’haer. When light hits the stone, these impurities sparkle brightly and give the owner a celestial, near-divine appearance.

Other Information: A lesser known application of the gem, when the Nyxian Sapphire is exposed to a large amount of raw ether, an interesting reaction occurs. The stone glows a white-hot, like a star about to go supernova, and shoots out beams of blinding light. The Sapphire shakes violently, but retain its form. It will rush towards the source of the ether discharge relentlessly, a useful tool for those intent on hunting mages.
