Arcanum

Arcanum is an orange-colored mineral that is a powerful enhancer of magical properties. It appears naturally in the mountains near Arden Vul, typically in one of two forms: large geodes up to 50' in diameter, or (paradoxically) enormous nuggets some 10'-15' in diameter. The arcane power of large pockets poses significant danger to explorers, as the concentrated power of the arcanum causes arcane spell-casters and inherently-magical creatures to be overwhelmed with desire to stay within or near the arcanum pocket.
