Items
The following items provide, or facilitate the creation of, a light source. Lighters and flints are on this list as, with minimal skill, burnable items such as sticks and limbs can be foraged and lit quickly to provide light.
Gaethzen
Gaethzen is a material that acts as a magical light sources powered by mana. You use them almost exactly as you use Cambrinth items, however instead of getting your mana back, you get light instead! A light source becomes very handy if you're going into a dark area and need to be able to see your way around.
Gaethzen items are extremely fragile. If you DROP them, they will shatter. LOWER GROUND for a hands free light source. They are also like Cambrinth in that they become attuned to whatever magic they were first charged with. So if you as an Empath charge it with Life Magic, then give it to a Cleric, who tries to charge it with Holy Magic, you can kiss the gaethzen goodbye! Gaethzen can be retuned by a Moon Mage, just like Cambrinth.
Using Gaethzen
- CHARGE <item> <amount>: Charges your gaethzen with mana to fuel the enchantment.
- The more you charge your gaethzen, the longer the light will last, up to it's maximum capacity.
- FOCUS <item>: To forge a magical link to it.
- RUB <item>: To activate it. Rub it again to deactivate it.
When the mana fueling it is spent, your gaethzen item will simply extinguish itself.

Lighters
Lighters are items that will create a flame by POINTING the lighter at the target.
