Fire agate was a form of chalcedony which contained goethite arranged in thin lines, giving this stone an iridescent quality.[5][6][7]
Description[]
These ornamental stones came in red, brown, gold, and green varieties and in the finest specimens the chalcedony was partially translucent, allowing the color to come through.[5][6][7] A typical stone had a base value of 10 gp.[1][2][3][4]
Powers[]
Fire agates were used in creating the most potent base for potions of fire resistance by dissolving them in fire lizard or pyrolisk blood.[7]
