+When the crystal has a message stored the crystal fogs up, With the level of fog depending on how many words the message contains.
+The crystals can be linked together in a network of sorts to enable message sending over an unlimited distance between crystals. This only requires leaving the crystals together in a container or similar for 12 hours. A crystal can be paired with up too three 'networks' at a time.
-A polished piece of Quarts about a 35cm in length, The crystal is not see through with imperfections filling the crystal with odd patterns. \\ You can use this crystal to cast the message spell to any other holders of the crystal with an unlimited range, or to any creature in a 2 mile radius. \\ The crystal is not a secure means of communication, on every use the DM rolls a D6, on the result of a 1 the message is also given to all other messaging crystals, if the message was sent to a creature the message dose not reach, unknown to the user and cannot be used to send to the same creature for 24 hours
+Once the crystal has stored a message it can either be sent to another crystal or rubbed upon a suitable surface to 'print' the message out. The language of the message is the same as what it was stored as.

+// These special crystals were first recorded in the 'Underdark' One of Oxrad's many expeditions retrieved these crystals in mass and brought them to the surface. Study reviled their properties and they were able to grow more under a specific artificial environment. \\ Though their use hasn't been fully realised being more of a novelty than a useful tool. It has seen use as a way of discreetly passing along messages, Rather than an obvious letter a dull foggy cheep crystal that most would overlook. \\ Others have found use of it as a listening device, The crystals naturally record sounds nearby. Placing one as a humble decoration in the meeting room of rulers may earn interesting insights. //
