History & Usage

History

Magic Detectors

  Essence stones have the distinct ability to detect magic inside of an object. Making it is a item a person to have when dealing with it. The stone were originally used by people who hunted those born with magic back when magic users were persecuted and they were able to find them with these stones. But when magic became more accepted it started to be used for other reasons, often by people searching for magic items that ranged from treasure hunting to just using them on item at merchant stalls that claimed they were magic. But when Marcus Ester created the Essence Modulator the stones were being used at a high demand to create them to ensure that magic users could get one to check their Source Arcana readings.
