Location and Rarity

A Dreamstone, called Emetyte by the Seekers, tends to be much less common, found in Major or Grand Fractures. They are also sometimes obtainable from the corpses of Nightmare Beasts. Regardless of dreamwalking ability, if a person finds one of these in the corpse of a Nightmare Beast, they can bring it back into the waking world.

Physical Details

• Raw - A Dreamstone is easily recognizable with its smooth edges, globular shape, and moving swirls of purple, green, and blue ether within the stone itself. A Dreamstone is also known to have a somewhat electrical feel to those who handle it.
• Core - The core of a Dreamstone is pure black obsidian and perfectly spherical.
• Fragment - Fragments tend to be faded grey with a slight sheen of another color.

Inherent Abilities

Can store 4 Novice Aspects, 3 Competent Aspects, 2 Expert Aspects, or 1 Master aspect of any Domain Magic (or a proper combination of such, with Novice being .25, Competent .33, Expert .50, and Master being 1.0, with the maximum total being 1.0). A Domain Mage inherently can feel the different aspects, thus allowing them to choose which they want to use.

Raw

Falling asleep with a raw Dreamstone within 2 meters of a person will initiate them into Dreamwalking if they are not already. If the individual is a Dreamwalker, it will grant them a +10 temporary bonus to the skill, effectively letting them be 1 Tier higher. This cannot exceed the 100 point max cap.

Core

Dreamstone cores are able to absorb ambient energies of all types (Domain Ether, Divine Ether, Ectoplasm, Ephemera) within a 20 meter radius. This effectively makes that sphere of influence devoid of these energies. Any use of abilities of these energy types within this sphere makes them half as effective and cost twice as much to use. The only exception to this are the Aspects stored within the well itself.

Fragment

Dreamstone fragments always come in pairs, as recognized by sharing the same sheen coloring. The paired fragments only work while within the immediate presence of 2 individual that are capable of dreaming. Otherwise, they have no additional effects. They serve as Nightmare Beast warnings. If one individual's dreamscape is invaded by a Nightmare Beast, the fragment with the other individual will begin to a gong-like resonance. If the individual is a dreamwalker, they can tap the stone to immediately be put into the first individual's dreamscape (this only works if the stone is activated by a Nightmare Beast.) If the individual is not a dreamwalker, it will simply work to gather their attention.

Moderation Status

It requires no moderation approval to gather, assuming proper permissions have been granted for the appropriate fracture.
