Helldust

First encountered in Foramere castle, Helldust is a creation of Morcam. It is an explosive powder, not unlike Rhone's gunpowder however its explosive nature seems to react to magic instead of a spark. The effect of activated Helldust seems to corresponding to whatever magic was used to activate it, elementally speaking. In the past when for example when force damage was used in Foramere the resulting explosion blew apart the corner of a building.

Forms

 * Powder - the most common form that has been seen. The party still has some of their stock, although it is mostly depleted.
 * Lotus Sphere - encountered in an ambush travelling back from Tempestar, these metal spheres contain enough Helldust to be used in combat to limited effect however their purpose seems to be destroying buildings.
 * Grenade - homemade fragmentation grenades by the party.
