Bloodstone

Bloodstones are gems, found primarily in Damara. They are a deep-green chalcedony, but are considered unusual because they are flecked with red jasper. Bloodstones are usually cut cabochon with beveled edges, in smooth ovals. Bloodstones tend to resemble drops of blood. A standard bloodstone is worth on average 50 gold pieces. These gems are mined throughout the Galena Mountains in places such as the Bloodstone Mines. Historically, bloodstone was sold in bars worth twenty-five gold pieces, each with the stamp of a Damaran noble house.
