A lightning rod protects a permanent structure anchored to the ground from lightning. The structure becomes completely immune to electricity damage and any lightning bolts (whether from natural or magical storms, but not directly from spells or sphere abilities such as lightning bolt or destructive blast) that would strike within 25 ft. of the structure have a 50% chance of instead striking the building and thus having no effect. Exceptionally large structures (larger than 60 ft. on any side) may require more than one lightning rod to protect them.

Price 50 gp + the cost of excavating and furnishing the shelter; Weight –.

A storm shelter is a below-ground space with special reinforcement and doors that protect the inhabitants of the surrounding building even if the entire structure is destroyed. The entire shelter must be below ground, there cannot be windows, and the door must be flush with the surface, but otherwise the inside may be as simple or elaborate as desired. The shelter and its door never take damage from weather effects.

Special: Above-ground storm shelters can be constructed, but these cost 100 gp per 10-ft. cube and only take half damage from weather effects instead of none. This takes place before applying hardness and stacks with the normal halving of energy damage for being an object.

A Skyrider is an enormous and elaborate hang glider that often sees use in sky-bound societies; while a common hanglider is designed to comfortably fly from high ground to low ground, a skyrider is designed to start in the air, then return to the air when it is finished. A skyrider makes use of some magic to make it lighter, and is covered and has room for carrying some cargo and passengers, but not many.

A skyrider falls one altitude band every round if it is moving at a speed slower than 6, and can only climb at a speed of 8 or higher. As such, skyriders are usually used by those who have access to weather magic, or those who naturally live at high enough altitudes that winds never truly stop; a skyrider requires winds of severity level 3 or higher to be able to climb to higher altitudes.

Iridium jellenate is a condensed, metallised substance which, over time, hardens to be one of the most dense and sturdy materials on an earth-aligned plane. It is a popular but expensive material to line building foundations with to ensure they can survive seismic activity.

Power Component
Doses 1 (100 gp); Focus 10 (1,000 gp); Spells object-creating spells

Effect When you use iridium jellenate as a material component or focus for a spell or sphere effect which creates one or more objects with hit points (such as from the creation subschool or Creation sphere), increase the hardness of each created object by +1 (an object without hardness is treated as having hardness 0 for this purpose).

Note: Other spell and sphere effects which create tangible objects or structures may qualify for this planar power component, such as a wall of ice spell or a Protection sphere barrier.

Mother pearlite is a unique geological formation formed from the condensate shells which slowly break down at the bottom of water-aligned magic lakes, rivers, and seabeds.

Doses 1 (300 gp); Focus 5 (1,500 gp); Spells any

Effect When you use a mother pearlite as a material component or focus for any spell or sphere effect, that spell or sphere effect is affected as per the Aquatic Spell metamagic feat (this does not increase the spell slot or spell points required for that effect). However, the spell or sphere effect’s caster level is treated as 1 lower for the purposes of duration and range (minimum caster level 1).

The many twinkling layers of this gemstone mimics the great wards and barriers of illustrious mage citadels, a natural formation that mirrors magic innovations.

Power Component
Doses 1 (75 gp); Focus 15 (1,125 gp); Spells spells which grants an armor, deflection, natural armor, or shield bonus to AC

Effect When you use a warding agate as a material component or focus for a spell or sphere effect that grants the target an armor, deflection, natural armor, or shield bonus to AC, each affected target gains 5 temporary hit points which last for the effect’s duration. A warding agate’s effects also apply to effects which indirectly improve the target’s armor, deflection, natural armor, or shield bonus to AC (such as using the Enhancement sphere enhance ability to improve a target’s armor enhancement bonus).

Note: Temporary hit points granted by a warding agate are considered to be from the same source and do not stack with itself (such as a recipient of two spells which would grant temporary hit points only receiving temporary hit points once).
