Viridite

Overview

Viridite is a photorefractive oxide gas composed of charged titanium oxides infused with psionic light. It acts as a self-organizing optical medium, converting radiation into patterned bioluminescent displays. Viridite skies are among the Continuum’s most beautiful — shimmering with green auroral veils and whispering echoes of light.

Physical and Psionic Properties

Viridite scatters photons coherently, refracting light into fractal geometries. In high concentrations it can transmit visual data directly into the optic nerve, causing shared hallucinations known as *Green Sight*. Under psionic induction, Viridite filaments grow crystal spines, forming reflective atmospheric webs.

Phases

• **Gas:** Refractive atmosphere; luminescent.
• **Dust Plasma:** Solid-liquid hybrid; stable in magnetized air.
• **Condensate:** Used as photonic paint in divine architecture.

Uses and Occurrences

• Found naturally in Eclipsite and Lucidmist Atmosphere worlds.
• Used to channel divine light in temple skylenses.
• Component of psionic camouflage systems and reactive murals.

• Eclipsite Atmosphere
• Lucidmist Atmosphere

Trivia

• The Continuum calls it “The Breath of the Emerald God.”
• Viridite’s photonic hum is in perfect resonance with the frequency of chlorophyll.
