Mana Crystal
This crystal is a blue-green color which seems to shift in the light, even when no light is present. The crystal can be used as a focus for spells. The crystal also has 1 charge. When you cast a spell, you may harness the power of the crystal and expend a charge. If you do so, the spell slot used to cast the spell is not expended. Additionally, if the spell cast is a damaging spell, treat all dice rolled for the damage as if they had rolled their maximum value. When you use the crystal in this way, roll a d20. On a 1, the crytal crumbles to dust.
If the crystal has 0 charges at dawn, roll a d6. On a 5-6, it regains 1 charge.
