Byproduct of the death of supermassive stars that collapsed into stellar black holes, black solarite's radiation is inimical to all life. If not harnassed properly with the help of advanced technology, it will create strange gravity events within a radius proportional to the mass of the crystal. When exposed to a charge, black solarite can bend the laws of mass-energy equivalence and manipulate the relative mass of objects, making it capable of powering FTL travel, warping, and hyperjumps. It casts darkness in a 30-foot radius, reducing the illumination by one step in that area; full daylight-level light becomes bright illumination, bright illumination becomes shadowy illumination and shadowy illumination becomes total darkness.
Once used up, it decays into ''blue solarite''. Throughout all stages of its decay, one pound of black solarite can generate 13,200 charges of energy; the same energy as 660 [[Fusion Cell (3.5e Equipment)|fusion cells]].
