Description (Specifications)[edit]

This is a rare type of stone found only on Imaparlu (Gushemege 1616) – why it is called Denebian Oil Jade is a mystery. It is used in certain religious carvings by the Imaparlani sect there, although local artisans have begun producing “secular” versions of the carvings. The world forbids export of the raw stone. Non-Imaparlu immigrants are strictly controlled, and outsiders who wish to work in the material must convince the Efont (the local planetary ruler) that they understand the significance of the substance and will do it the proper honour.

It has been collected as far away as Hamilcar (Solomani Rim 1738)
