This salvage does not appear to be used to create any components or base items.

Demonlogica

Arcane Salvage

It is well known within the mystic community that the author of this book lost his mind just after completing it.

Dread Tramalian

Legacy Chain Salvage

Rings such as these are passed down through the Legacy Chain, from father to son. They are half ward, half heirloom.

Ectoplasm

Arcane Salvage

Some call it 'ectoplasm.' Others call it 'spectral blood.' Whatever the case, the properties of this rare ooze have only begun to be discovered.

Ectoplasmic Residue

Arcane Salvage

Wherever ghosts appear, this residue is left behind. It has been put to all manner of uses, including contacting the dead.

Elemental Manual

Legacy Chain Salvage

Tomes like these are commonly found among the Legacy Chain. They contain a mishmash of spells and diary entries dating centuries back.

Etherium

Arcane Salvage

Soft as cloth, this woven metal shimmers with a strange glow. It is almost as though it comes from another world entirely.

Fetish

Banished Pantheon Salvage

It doesn't make sense that a simple stick like this could have the power to blur the barrier between the spirit world and this one, allowing the dark powers of the Banished Pantheon to bleed through. It doesn't make sense, but it's true.

Fir Bolg Hand

Fir Bolg Salvage

Detached from the Fir Bolg, these twisted vines have lost all semblance of life.

Fir Bolg Straw

Fir Bolg Salvage

Scarecrows walking and talking? Balderdash! It's just straw, right?

Ghost Trinket

Ghost Salvage

Small possessions of the spirits sometimes manifest and drop into the physical world. Studying these transmogrified relics often yields fascinating results.

Glittershrooms

Tuatha Salvage

These once-normal mushrooms became enchanted when accidentally caught in a Tuatha's spell. Their properties are varied, but always yield fascinating results to those who know how to study them.

Hex

Hellion Salvage

Though largely unschooled in the ways of magic, the Hellions have deciphered a few symbols of power. Their ignorance of the craft makes their use of such symbols all the more dangerous.

Magma

Igneous Salvage

This molten rock crackles and hisses with energy. No matter how long you carry it, it never cools.

Necklace of Teeth

Banished Pantheon Salvage

This necklace is made of human teeth. You don't want to know where or how the Shamans got them.

Orichalcum

Circle of Thorns Salvage

This is a crystal used in ancient times. Engineers cannot account for its unusual strength, which is believed by some to be mystically enhanced.

Phantom Tears

Ghost Salvage

The teardrop of a ghost! Deep emotion is often what ties ghosts to this world.

Potion

Arcane Salvage

Potions such as these are very dangerous if you don't know what they do. Of course, for some groups like the Carnival, the choas is part of the fun.

Pumice

Igneous Salvage

This chunk of rock is surprisingly light. That could explain why the Pumicites move with such frightening speed.

Pumpkin Bomb

Fir Bolg Salvage

Like so much in Croatoa, these pumpkins are not what they first appear. Transformed by the Fir Bolg's magic, these explosive squash pack a real punch.

Red Cap Pouch

Red Caps Salvage

Curious rocks, leaves and powders fill this small pouch, but what is most disturbing are the hard little shards of white bone. Red Caps have been known throughout history as brutal creatures, and you have to wonder who those bones once belonged to.

Ring

Circle of Thorns Salvage

Rings are often said to be sources of power. Those carried by the Circle of Thorns usually bear sigils intended to bind ghostly forms to the physical world. It's hard to explain why.

Saber

Ghost Salvage

These ghostly blades appear to have no substance, but when weilded in fury they can cut through solid objects. That's a mystery worth analysing.

Scent of Brimstone

Circle of Thorns Salvage

The smell is terrible, but arcane texts indicate that a whiff of brimstone can awaken dormant magic powers hidden within other objects.

Scrolls

Spielman was one of the original founders of the Legacy Chain; over the centuries, many of his descendants have died in the service of his cause.

Spirit Guide

Arcane Salvage

Even death could not stop the scholar Randall from completing his great work. This essential mystic resource lists every spirit type, from the Spectral Pirates from Cap au Diable to the ghosts that haunt Croatoa.

Static Charge

Cap Au Demon Salvage

For some reason, this static charge does not dissipate. It is as though it has a life of its own.

Talisman

Circle of Thorns Salvage

Those who wear talismans such as this one seem to gain in magical power. However, those around them often suffer decreased power.

Tattoo

Hellion Salvage

This tattoo pattern if favored by the Hellions. It is rumored to unlock hidden powers.

Thorn fragment
