	Duskruin Gems are suitable for merchant alterations, gem-accepting items (Joola, Veola, and more), [[lapidary box]], [[gemcutter]], etc. They make lovely jewelry in a Daxela [[Jewelry box]] and a very rare [[Alter Box]]/thing of the right type can take one, too. Use them in [[Cobbling]] or [[Weaving]]. Matching gems seem to stack in a Player Shop. But they will not go into a [[Gem jar]], cannot be used in warrior [[Sheath making]], and the gemshop does not purchase them. They are all unique to Duskruin and are found nowhere else in Elanthia. (These same special uses and exclusions will apply to Ebon Gate Gems from the EG gem pile, too.)

	Mania was back from hiatus in Feb 2025! Wyrom put on a crazy live event that included auctions, reverse auctions, spins, and more. It's been called Wyromania, Shenanigans, and other things. It includes high end and rare items - sometimes things from the HESS, sometimes things so rare they appear nowhere else. But no free things anymore. It is normally held a few days before the end of Duskruin. Watch for the announcement of the date and Bring All The Bloodscrip. The TownCrier provides both live coverage of the event via ESP and the TownCrier LNet channel, plus a written record of it for posterity saved in a Google Sheet.
