Bloodstone

Dragonshards are translucent stones with pulsating veins of color within them. They can be found in various parts of Eberron, and come in three distinct varieties, varying in color, location, and uses. Dragonshards are used to enhance the powers of a Dragonmark, or in the creation of magic items, artifacts, or constructs. Dragonshards are important to many of the magic technologies used throughout the Five Nations of Eberron.
== Eberron dragonshards ==
Eberron dragonshards, also known as bloodstones, are typically pink in color and can be found within egg-shaped stones buried beneath top-soil, or the watery muck in swampy regions. Eberron dragonshards are the most common of the three varieties, especially on the continent of Khorvaire. Like other dragonshards, they are used in the creation of magic items, but have a broader spectrum of uses than the other types of dragonshards.

Carefully dissecting the bloodstone, what was find inside were red shards, similar in nature to the Greater Khyber Crystal, though smaller in nature. Within, two large shards are harvested to the value of 1000gp each, and 24 smaller shards to the value of 100gp each. Upon further research, it is established that these shards could be used both as components for crafting enchanted items and as material components for spells. The shards cannot be broken down and retain their arcane structure. With a skilled artificer, these could also be harnessed for the creation of infusions.
