Luminase

Luminase is a generic term often used in fictional contexts to describe a substance or energy source that emits light. It is not a recognized scientific term for any real-world compound or phenomenon. In literature, film, and video games, luminase typically possesses properties that allow it to glow, illuminate areas, or serve as a power source for advanced technology. The specific characteristics and applications of luminase vary greatly depending on the fictional universe in which it appears. Sometimes it is depicted as a naturally occurring mineral, a byproduct of a specific biological process, or an artificially synthesized material. Its luminosity might be constant or controllable, and its intensity could range from a faint glow to a blinding radiance. The narrative purpose of luminase often revolves around its ability to overcome darkness, facilitate exploration, or drive fantastical machinery. The concept taps into humanity's fascination with light and its potential as both a tool and a mystery.
