Warpstone is often called wyrdstone, daemonrock or darkore. Regardless of its name it is one of the most feared and coveted of all substances. All manners of powers are attributed to it. The ignorant and the hopeful claim that it heals or transmutes lead to gold, but the greater majority fear the malign powers ascribed to it. Those dreading it declare that it wreaks terrible changes on the mind and body of those near it, it attracts the attention of gods best left unmentioned, and that the stone is actually pure chaos.

Warpstone is a hard black stone that seems to greedily devour light. The evil dark glow of warpstone leeches the light and color from the world around it, and staring directly at warpstone causes the victims eyes to hurt and stomach to twist. Most warpstone is fist-sized or smaller, although pieces much larger than this have been reported.
