Although the empire has large resources of felazar, the number of attuned individuals is never great, and many create weapons and armour for the Imperial armies.  To determine the price of felazar equipment, use the original weight but add +20gp per pound to the price of a masterwork version of that itemFelazar equipment can be enchanted as normal.  Treat enchanted felazar equipment as having an additional plus when calculating its hardness and hit points..Craft Felazar Items [Item Creation]You can create items out of felazar crystals.Prerequisite: Spellcaster level 1+.Benefit: You are attuned to felazar crystals, and can create items out of them, including weapons, armor, and shields.  Shaping an item from felazar is governed by the crafting rules, but the skill that determines progress is Perform(singing).  Multiple shapers can cooperate to create a single item; they each roll against the same DC, and the individual progress they achieve is added together.</blockquote>
