prvodí

Prvodí is a fictional mineral referenced in speculative fiction and tabletop role-playing game materials. In those sources, prvodí is valued for a combination of high energy density and luminescent properties, making it useful for both power storage and decorative applications.

Typically depicted as a translucent crystalline substance with a blue-green hue, prvodí is said to retain heat long enough to power small devices and to glow faintly in darkness when energized by ambient radiation. Its chemical classification and exact composition vary by author, but common descriptions place it among silicate or oxide minerals formed under high-pressure metamorphic conditions.

In worldbuilding contexts, prvodí is described as occurring in deep, tectonically active regions, often within veins of metamorphic rocks. Extraction is portrayed as difficult and dangerous, requiring specialized drilling and thermal management to prevent the unintended release of stored energy.

The etymology of the name prvodí appears across several languages within the fictional setting, with editors sometimes tracing it to roots meaning “first” and “stone.” In narrative use, prvodí functions as a plot device in technologically advanced cultures and as a status symbol in trading networks, influencing economies and political dynamics within the imagined world.
