Drogor's Wrath sapphire
Drogor's Wrath sapphires are strange stones sometimes found after the death of a brine shark -- those equally strange creatures constructed seemingly entirely from sea water and Holy will. They are murky gems, hued the dark cobalt of the ocean on a moonless night, with paler striations that resemble the whitecaps of a storm-wracked sea.
sun's glory
Blooming only once per year and growing only in direct sunlight, the vibrant yellow flower known as sun's glory is unique in that its petals always grow to reflect the number of sunny days since the plant's seed originally germinated. The largest sun's glory blossom ever recorded was said to have had 51 petals and to be so large as to barely be contained within a fully grown Gor'Tog's open palm. Sun's glory are thick stemmed, single flower plants with thin, ray-like petals of bright yellow that radiate outward from a deep, fiery orange center.
zingana
The tall, straight-bodied zingana is a rare tree found only in tropical climates which support the small species of bird with which it shares a symbiotic relationship, as well as a name. Zingana wood is pale yellow to almost white with dark streaks, giving it a striking, striped appearance. Though its exotic coloration has caused zingana to be frequently used in decorative items, the wood is also very tough and durable, making it an excellent choice for wooden tools and flooring.
tamboti
Renowned for their beautiful, dense and durable timber, the rare tamboti trees are found growing in single-species copses in deciduous woodlands where nearby brackish water can be found. Tamboti wood is a reddish-brown reminiscent of dried blood, but with a satin-like lustre and an extremely fragrant sweet, spicy smell that persists long after removal from the living tree. Shipbuilders particularly value tamboti for decorative aspects of of ships, such as figureheads or interior work for the captain's quarters, as its connection to brackish water is seen as being a symbolic balance of reverence for Drogor, Eluned, and Lemicus.
camlet
Another fabric named after its curing process, camlet is a heavy, waterproof silk best suited for containers and outerwear. Camlet is not dyed in the traditional sense. Instead, dried pigments are added to the waterproofing solution during the curing processes. As a result of this, camlet is incredibly resistant to fading and was traditionally only created in the most vivid and brilliant of hues. Although deep, rich tones are now sometimes produced as well, white and other pale shades of camlet remain almost unheard of.
