A brazier that won’t stay lit

Silver shaving mirror, dented on one side

A bronze bell hung in a cemetery

Letters taken from the library in Weisshaupt, tied in a bundle

An empty chest in a dragon’s nest

A shield bristling with spikes

Seven daggers lodged in a wooden table

A broken piece of Trevisan glass

Pages floating in a Hossberg mud puddle

Thick, barbed chain used for hunting dragons

A mural in bright teal and red

A Crow’s mask

A single sprig of Brona’s Bloom

A Dalish token of affection

*Sand-coated glass formed by lightning striking sand

[morrowalker]

I mean the cannon name given to the shipp by Tommy was “blue dirt”

Still not a fan of it, we can call it “fulgurite” since if lightning strikes the sand (similar to the earth) that kind of glass is created

or simply thunder shipping because that happens with lightning hitting the ground directly

Just by following the mecanic of naming ninjago shipps that if they aren’t straight they use some fusion of the elements instead of that problematic relationship

"blue dirt" sucks and tommy is an uninspired cunt. we should kill him. however, i am a fan of fulgurite or thunder. these are good.

SO! The Sai server was passing around Lily's list of tropes for Niva.

We get bored when we don't have purple woman saying the funny, okay? While looking through the list, I found something that fired up my pet peeve, and I can not and will not be stopped.

Why the fuck would Niva use these techniques! Now I'm sure some of you are like, but blivilade why not? Let me walk you through.

A fun thing you wanna do when working with any power system is give it a good think, provided your audience isn't extra young (below 8) it can really add to the believability of an otherwise odd and chaotic world. The word of the day is effort! So we have a glass shard throw (a separate post of hers confirms that this happens in less than a second.) And boiling rain. Now, rather than trying to figure out the mechanics of making rain boil, I'll focus on the glass.

For easy reference, there is proof in real life that this is possible in the rock known as fulgerite, specifically a crude glass from lightning heating sand. So, at a base point, Niva is at least pumping 1 billion joules worth of energy into the sand. For perspective, a bolt of lightning is about 3 million volts, electricity arcs in the air as low as 30 thousand, which is the likely starting point for lightning bending, which in the show always takes a less than combat effective charging period. Now Niva's glass probably is more refined, so to save on time and math, we'll just say 5 billion joules or 15 million volts. Now the big one is that to cool this now molten glass with air in less than half a second?... it's actually impossible. Past a certain point it air could be going too fast to cool and cause friction instead, the only way it would work is if the air was supercooled, like absolute zero... air is not a good heat conductor, and neither is glass.

Now that we've gone through the steps, the end attack is!... hitting opponents with really sharp rocks.... bit underwhelming considering the feats. So let's have a little fun and talk about all the other things she could do within this same time frame!

Hit the opponent with 5 damn near unguardable bolts of nature's wrath without warning since near zero charge time.

Use that 5 billion joules with firebending to make the area in front of her stop existing.

Just use that 5 billion joules of energy to simply accelerate the sand to ludicrous speeds where it would have the effect of a high powered shotgun.

Air bend with that energy to just rend the flesh with sheer force of air.

Cool the air around her opponent to where the gasses we breathe are rendered solid.

Metal bend some coins to have a razors edge and send them out at bullet velocity.

Cover the opponent in molten glass...

Just earth bend rocks to be sharp...

The rain isn't that bad, but it also suffers from the fact that its steps are just as, if not more dangerous than the end product. The amount of water she'd have to boil to make a super heavy cloud that has drops that can hit the ground before they evaporate could easily just be a boiling flood... or lava...

Sketchbook, mixed media collage.

Found papers, foil, wax, acrylic, and an element from the ADDITIONS deck Series 2, a project from Morphic Additions.

Fulgerite.

[nocturnal-nexu]

Once the gang finds Jay and he's joined the team once again, the kids beg him to zap the castles and turn them into fulgerites. Then they can take their sand castles home with them instead of having to watch them get washed away.

(This randomly popped into my head when I remembered fulgerites existed. They are such a cool natural phenomenon! Sorry if it's a bit off topic.)

Dad cole....

I headcanon that when the ninjas and friends play to the beach cole secretly uses his power to help the kids build a sandcastle

Like, come to think of it some of them don't really have a good childhood (iykyk) and they probably don't know the right way to make the perfect standing sandcastle, so cole uses his power to help it stay in shape and not crumbling down instead of teaching them the right material, just to spoil the kids

Nobody knows except Zane, cuz... he's zane

(Zane of course after that teaches the kids Which type of sand is perfect to make a sandcastle)

In case y'all ever wonder what it looks like when lightning hits sand, this is called fulgerite and it's exactly that

I don’t know if it’s the sudden rash of earthquakes down south, the solar eclipse, the new moon, mercury retrograde, or all of the above, but I’ve been in a bit of a haze the past 48 or so hours and it can kindly stop now. ✨ ✨ ✨ #oracleofmysticalmoments #46 Night ride.

"Let me guess. Something specifically meant to hurt or even kill me?" Samuel guessed, not backing down, however. "Maybe a chunk of fulgerite? Or something to counter my psychic powers instead."

@rogue-trader-samuel-drakon

After a lot of advice and a long time of trying to steel his courage, Samuel decides just to confront Perturabo. "Let's just get this over with..." He said nervously, prepared to have to fight.

“HA! No. I will systematically deal with you. My sons have already infiltrated your ship. Even your guard came back empty handed.”

[raevynnocturne]

Fulgerite, which is glass created after lightning strikes sand, sounds a lot like Folgerite; which sounds like people who worship Folgers coffee!

Xenius S. Fulgica Age: 18 Gender: Male Species: Azathen - Melva/Common Race: Mixed (Lower Varial, South Solitamacha) Aura Type: Fulgerite Description: Calm, observant, but Energetic, Xenius is a eye of a storm, even when things are falling apart around him, he remains collected and optimistic. Xenius, or his preferred nickname "X-Core", is very chill and love to entertain people, often going to late night parties and raves, but not on the dance floor, but as the Disc Jumper. X-Core's Style of fighting is very unorthodox, he prefers to stay afar and to use  slight of hand, often laying traps and running away from his enemies, prompting them to chase him, meanwhile he will calmly plan, prepare, and then execute his hair-brain scheme. But his trickster ways can be circumvented by using powerful short range attacks, he has little no plan to handle that, if you can catch up to him.

[rogue-trader-samuel-drakon]

"Well... I know this is probably not what you want to hear... but take it from experience, death can often times be preferable to constant pain and agony. I can't tell you how many times I've considered finding a shard of fulgerite just to end my constant pain. If they are truly suffering like you say, and there might be no solution, wouldn't death be preferable? I know that's not easy to think about. And I can understand that you care for each and every one of them. But if raising Vior has taught me anything, a parents job is to do what is best for their kids. Even if it isn't an easy choice to make. Now you have no reason to listen to me, and I probably don't know a single thing about what I'm talking about. But it's just my view on this."

A Custodes and Tlatia are fighting verbally.

"mmm... not even slightly concerning." Magnus retorts with a shrug of her shoulders. "Anyone want a daiquiri? I even have the cute little umbrellas."

Fulgerites—“petrified lightning,” the result of lightning striking silica-rich sand or sediment, fusing and vitrifying mineral grains—from the Mineralogical Research Company.

Gem cut of grape agate, fulgurite, Euclase, Goshenite

I decided to use polished fulgerite for the gem cut to make things more simplistic for you. 

I hope this helps!
