Amber, which we now know is the aging resin of several different trees and shrubs, was of unknown origin to the ancients, who revered it as a great element in magic and used it often as a talisman. 
	
	Because it was found most frequently on the shores of streams, in old lake beds, or in the sea, it was often thought to be the product of a fish that was called, appropriately, the amberfish. Others believed it came from seafoam that had crystallized, or from resin put forth by certain trees. 
	
	Amber has many uses other than magical or relgious, it is easly carved and can make many useful objects including rings, jars, or beads. It is easly found in some places of Majik but really good clear high grade amber, the kind people want for there idols or talisman is exceptionaly rare in large chunks.
