Æther Ore

Aegis Ore is an translucent turquoise colored gem that glows with a pale light filled with amorphous shapes of bright light floating within the glow. It is most often shaped into symmetrical shapes with sharp edges. When crafted, the glow becomes stronger with the spheres of light becoming spherical.

Generally the powers revolve around protection. Increasing defense of armor, making parrying easier with weapons, and other similar effects.

Cloud Ore appears as a gray and white stone of irregular shape. It's glow makes the stone appear hazy and hard to focus on. After being refined it becomes easier to clearly see but never fully loses a slight haze.

The powers of the ore deal with the mind. Sometimes they cloud and confuse, other times clarify or give insight. For battle they can be used to cause psychic damage.

Crystal Ore is a transparent crystal. In its raw form it is often mistaken for raw diamond until someone attempts to refine it. Once refined it appears to be a flawless diamond but is distinct in the bright speckles of white light that it emits.

Dealing with information and clarity, Crystal Ore grants hidden knowledge and allows seeing of the unseen. For example, it can offer truesight, scrying, and the ability to read languages.

Quiet Ore comes in a blocky chartreuse colored shape. It is traditionally shaped into regular geometric cubic shapes.

While called Quiet Ore, it actually revolves around peace and order. The name quiet was coined as the ore can prevent chaos which is associated with noise.

Being comprised of raw magical essence, Raw Ore appears to be made of shifting swirling colors in the shape of raw obsidian. It sparkles with the same shifting colors. As it is formed into a shape the colors will shift less and less depending on the effect and level of refining though they never become completely static.

Root Ore is a rough swirled brown stone that resembles sandstone in it's raw form. When refined, the swirls remain but the stone is smooth with a satin finish. When used, the color of the stone changes to represent the element being commanded such as red for fire, blue for water, white for air, etc.

This ore grants control over the elements such as fire, earth, thunder, etc.

Shadow Ore is a striated black and white stone. The white of the stone gives off a small amount of light. When formed, the light from the white becomes brighter and the black becomes almost imperceptibly smooth.

Shadow Ore controls the elemental aspects of light and darkness. Some simple stones work as a simple light for the darkness or making small areas of shadow.

Trickster Ore appears as a relatively smooth stone with a shifting myriad of colors moving through it. It has a nearly imperceptable glow around it in similar colors. Generally, it is formed into small scultpures of various things such as animals, people, or items.
