Soulstone

Soulstones are an essentially part of necromancy, those that have learnt the ancient art are able to trap the souls of their victims within stones. Soulstones are a essential consumable component required and used in many modern necromancers spells and skills. The practice was learnt over time by nercomancers who discovered how to capture the energies that bind souls to bodies, distilling them into soulstones.

heavily in your hand as though it held something from another
