DESCRIPTION
Sith Gems, Stones, Crystals have been utilized throughout history for nefarious deeds. Marko Ragnos had many adorning his staff, which was used to empower non-Force Adepts with the power to use the Force, while others have been housed in Temples and simply used to trap Jedi, while others have adorned amulets and rings. This one is raw, as if hewn from the original rock, polished and then simply utilized. Likely it's creator only desired the material and didn't care about asthetics. It glows with an inner light that diminishes when not in use. It will glow when a nearby creature dies, or when power is drawn from within.
