Luminous Sapphire Pigment

Common

This pigment can be used by Weavers, Leatherworks, Painters, Calligraphers, and Tattoo Artists to imbue their works with special properties.

Luminous Sapphire Marks have the incredible property that they glow. When they are broken down into fine dust by using a mortar and pestle strong enough to crush them the dust can be distilled into pigment. The process of breaking down the sapphires requires someone with Jewelcrafting proficiency working for one hour per luminous mark to grind them into exceptionally fine dust. Calligraphers and Tattoo Artists can use it to produce ink. Weavers and Leatherworkers can use it to create dye. Painters can create paint.

The value of this pigment can be used towards the cost of appropriate crafting projects, including those of magical nature. The value of the dust is equal to the value of the luminous sapphire marks used to create it. The glow of the ink or dye will fade over time and 30 days it will lose its luminous property. But expert craftsmanship can make the glow permanent with a DC 21 check using the relevant tool with intelligence.
