Master of Black Ice

Black Ice[]
Description[]
A black stone as smooth as glass. It seems translucent at first flance, a trick of the eye caused it to look darker the longer you squint at it, as if the stone drinks in light.
Facts[]
- Found in the Spine of the World, at the location of the long destoryed Cryshal-Tirigth (a crystal tower errectred by Akar Kessell long ago)
- Forged from the same essence of the evil Crystal Shard, the Ice carries traces of the shard's taint.
- The taint slowly corrupts anyone who comes into possession of it. Although the effect is more pronounced in those who have more contact with the substance
- Can be forged like stone
- Baerick is selling trinkets to Ten-Town with the guide of Kessell
