When singing Purification Song at a gem a Bard is able to remove blemishes and other impurities from the gem, thereby increasing the quality and price of it. Each successful cast on a gem increases the price of it by 10%.
However, there is a chance of failure each cast, increasing in percentage the more the gem is sung to, that can end in damaging or destroying the gem and hurting the singer in the process. Failures can cause Hitpoint loss, minor or moderate limb wounds, and even stuns. When a gem is sung to multiple times, there is usually a warning prior to an actual failure; however, as failures can occur on the first attempt, this should not be considered a reliable safety measure.
It is possible to sing to a gem so well that the gem transforms to complete purity and becomes an "orb gem". Orb gems are used in recharging (the origin of the term), and can also have spells imbedded into them via the spells Magic Item Create (420) and Holy Receptacle (325). (As such, they are often valued by adventurers slightly above their actual monetary value.) Orb gems cannot be further purified for increased value. Some gems may be found already existing in this pure state; this can be determined via a Purification attempt or via loresinging.
Purification Song Messaging
These messages are listed in order of increasing danger of failure.
In response to your voice, the gem glows luminously, its crystalline structure reforming as the gem becomes more perfect.
As you focus your voice on the gem, the gem hums in response to the resonance of your voice, appearing smoother and more pure in color.
As you focus your voice on the gem, the crystalline structure of the gem improves somewhat.
As you focus your voice on the gem, you hear it crack loudly and strain under the force of the song.
- Gem is at maximum value, and/or is already an orb:
As the gem resonates in response to your voice, you sense that it cannot be purified any further.
- Additionally this message is received when a gem is successfully purified to orb gem status:
As the song continues, the gem begins to twist and turn as the very essence flows into it filling the imperfections.

Your focused voice causes the petrified maoral to shatter into thousands of fragments!
... 45 points of damage!
Impact removes the right hand in a spray of red mist!
The silvery luminescence fades from around you.
It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...
You mentally give a sigh of relief as you remember that the Goddess Lorminstra owes you a favor.
...departing in 10 mins...
Sing Roundtime 3 Seconds.
Loresinging with Gems
This loresinging messaging is when the gem is an orb gem:
- From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the gem is as a gem of some kind. As you sing, the gem seems to resonate with your voice, and you feel it trying to draw power from you.
This loresinging messaging is when the gem is mage rechargable:
- From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the gem is as a gem of some kind. As you sing, the gem seems to resonate with your voice, and you feel it trying to draw power from you. It pulses strongly with the rhythm of your words.
