Now that my players have found out about the lengths I have gone to make things symmetrical, whenever they see something neat they always gasp and wonder aloud about what they might find in its place in the opposite realm, etc.Also, Shinobi: Yes, I describe Dark Residuum as having a weak glow in the beginning of the post.Again, this item is DARK not in the evil sense, but it is most often called that because it is: 1. Actually Dark in color.2. Found naturally only in the Shadowfell3. Is the magical opposite of normal Residuum, which has more 'positive' uses.4. Its more of a nickname. I get the feeling that Residuum and Dark Residuum are just common names, with the true scientific (eldritch) names being long and in draconic, or something. I plan on putting up some alternate names as well. Shadar'Kai might just call it normal residuum.Hmm, thats a good point. If I tie this a bit to Shadar'Kai and make them have cursed weapons and other such things it might serve a double purpose and make them a bit less bland.I'll see.</blockquote>
