[[Summary::In the highest mountains and the brightest lights of the upper planes forms suncryst, holy power crystallized in pools of holy water.]]  In these blessed realms the springs rivers and oceans are formed of holy water, sparkling with silver light.  As the glory of heaven shines upon it, the atomic silver transforms into a new material at the bottom of pools of water, soft and fine golden sand which radiate their own light and warmth.  Angels collect the transmuted essence of holy water and forge it into potent weapons against the forces of evil.

Any weapon primarily composed of metal can be made as a suncryst weapon.  They appear to be made of bright gold and glow gently with a warm light.  The surfaces naturally slide into flowing smooth shapes and curves, and are often further adorned with celestial imagery and carvings.  It is surprisingly lightweight, with properties similar to both silver and mithral.  Items made of suncryst are 50% lighter than their normal counterparts.  Suncryst counts as both good and [[SRD:Alchemical Silver|silver]] for the purpose of bypassing damage reduction.  Evil creatures which pick up a suncryst weapon automatically gain two negative levels, while non-good creatures only gain one negative level.  Good creatures suffer no ill effect.  A suncryst weapon grants a +1 sacred bonus to AC that stacks with other sacred bonuses, and weapons made of suncryst gain a 10% discount on the Holy and Sacred enhancements.  It radiates an aura of good equal to a 1st level cleric, or the weapon's caster level if magical.  Suncryst has 20 hit points per inch of thickness and hardness 15, but an evil-aligned weapon only faces hardness 8.

Armor can also be made with suncryst.  Such armor tends to have a very ornate and designed with feathers or wings.  Like mithril, suncryst armor is considered one armor category lighter, the arcane spell failure is decreased by 10%, maximum [[Dexterity]] bonus is increased by 2, and armor check penalties are lessened by 3 (to a minimum of 0).  In addition, you get a +2 sacred bonus on saving throws against [Evil] spells or the spells and spell-like abilities of evil outsiders.  Suncryst is so costly that weapons and armor made from it are always of masterwork quality; the masterwork cost is included in the prices given below. Thus, suncryst weapons and ammunition have a +1 enhancement bonus on attack rolls, and the armor check penalty of suncryst armor is lessened by 1 compared to ordinary armor of its type (already added into its stats above).  Like weapons, armor made of suncryst deals negative levels to non-good users.
