Cyberian

Cyberian is a mineral abundant in the world of Teurora, easily recognized by its crystalline structure combined with vibrant colors it owns. Commonly referred to as "magic rock" by less educated people, Cyberian possesses many unusual, often unnatural properties that vary from one type to another, such as high durability, quick regeneration or psionic properties. Many deem that the mineral is alive prior to being refined, a belief that could explain many of its near-magical abilities. It is used mostly in building, science, medicine and sometimes even body augmentations, as its properties often outclass more common materials. Valuable and uncommon, it naturally exists only in cold places, like far, freezing north of Teurora or certain deep caves around the world.

Cyberian rarely replaces certain cells of infants if their parents were adequately exposed to its presence, creating so-called Cybermancers as they grow up - blue eyed, nigh invincible people with access to powerful psionic abilities after extensive training. More can be found in the Cybermancer article.

Cyberian - 133 (Blue)
Most common type of Cyberian in the world - and most commonly used one. Characterized by its vibrant blue color, this type is the most durable one, often used in construction, tools or military armor. Its durability combined with fast regeneration creates a combination that grants protection from weather, age and bullets alike. However, its properties tend to dissipate as temperature rises, making it more plausible to use in colder or temperate environments - as it might lose most of its abilities in extreme conditions of deserts. Some also claim it's edible and filling, creating conspiracy theories warning people about consuming trace amounts of Cyberian-113 in their food as it apparently "makes it cheaper for companies to mass-produce".

Cyberian - 173 (Light Violet)
Once common, but depleted by extensive military usage during world wars and simple excavation accidents, this type of Cyberian is highly volatile - and as such, often used as a material in creating explosives or ammunition more potent than conventional counterparts. It explodes with what is described as "azure flame", making its involvement apparent and distinguishable from ordinary explosives. Extreme caution must be taken while mining as to not accidentally set it off

Cyberian - 174 (Deep Violet)
An addicting type of Cyberian, often used on the food market to enhance the flavor of meals and eventually develop a dependency in people who consume it in order to generate profit from specific meals. Outlawed in many countries, it’s still commonly used in the creation of infamous “Purple Cabbage” by a couple Galvanian drug cartels.

Cyberian - 183 (Cyan)
Less common than its predecessor, Cyberian 183 finds more usage in everyday life. Its regenerative properties are way stronger than the ones found in CBR-113, yet, on the contrary, it breaks quickly, not possessing even half the durability of most other types. As such, it's found a widespread use in medicine where microdoses can be injected into the bloodstream, regenerating cells and tissue in extremely quick time. This property made Cyberian-183 a common substitute for other ingredients in medicine due to its simplicity of usage, where simple, one time regeneration provides immediate results and cures patients quickly instead of attempting to immunize the system from further diseases.

Interestingly, Cyberian-183 does not interfere with Cybermancers and Cybers Gen 3, allowing them to operate without side effects.

Cyberian - 199 (Gold)
An easily distinguishable type thanks to its color, Cyberian-199 possesses no special qualities outside of regeneration in its raw form. However, when refined and combined with other crystals, it is able to impact and shape emotions easily within human minds - whether it be sorrow or joy. It's effects are most noticeable when Cyberian-199 is inserted into the human body, but recently it's been discovered that being in close proximity to it still has a slightly lesser effect. Often found as an ingredient in various medicine or in drugs - to enhance their effects, often permanently.
