Trinitite in Technomancer
Trinitite, mildly radioactive glass formed by a nuclear explosion, ought to be under the hellstorm if anyone goes to look, but what does it do? My first thought is a natural powerstone or something, but that's kinda boring; any other cool thoughts?

Re: Trinitite in Technomancer
Well, in the slightly more interesting department, it could be a natural Powerstone aspected towards the demon-summoning Necromancy spells, or heavily quirked towards summoning demons.
Hmm. Other options:

Re: Trinitite in Technomancer
Death aspected power stone? Mana Enhancer (raises the local mana level) probably also death or radiation aspected. Turns local mana Wild.

Re: Trinitite in Technomancer
I would expect that significant exposure to necromantically aspected glass would turn you into an Atomic Lich i.e. your flesh becomes as transparent as glass and you glow in the dark.
You'd never get a big enough piece of the stuff to make a Powerstone out of and that's _if_ you find some way to go digging under the still burning mushroom cloud at the site.

Usually green slightly radioactive atomic glass.
Alchemical material used by a descendant of Robert Lewis Stevenson, because.. you know why. ;)

Re: Trinitite in Technomancer
That sounds like 20 different kinds of crazy, all of which start with "Well what we sent in was an Earth elemental/golem..."

Really, see the creation of Technomancer Vampires as well as the Atomic Liches and oh yeah, there's some sort of magically contagious brain-eating zombie disease connected with radiation too. Then there are the randomly appearing demons in the nuclear reactors. Nope, you want to green on Merlin timelines. Really ambitious but better balanced entrepeneurs are scheming to head to Mercury to find rare mana-soaked elements bombarded by the (apparently) non-aspected solar mana. Or possibly skipping the Necronium fission and seeing if fusion is less badly aspected.

or necronium elemental. Or people who are atomic liches already. Who can probably gather the stuff just fine on their own, actually. |

Re: Trinitite in Technomancer
Seems like a great candidate for a Raw Magic material.
