   Sixth, the ability to consume a coruscar borne of Tethys.  After consuming a coruscar, one may imagine
   sending a beam of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, or violet light at a target, to achieve various 
   results.  To do this, concentrate on the distilled power held latently within the gem.

Misc

Here is the special charm in action:

   You concentrate on the distilled power held latently within coruscar.
   You link your mind with the deathroach's animal one.
   Your fiery eyes gleam brightly for a brief moment.
   Skittery energy shoots through your limbs.
   You stare intently at your coruscar.
   A halo of rainbow light forms around your coruscar encompassing it completely.
   Your coruscar shudders and glides towards you growing and expanding as it flies through the
   air before transforming into an array of layered rainbow chitin epidermal plates which settles
   upon you.

You get one shot of each color before the epidermal plates break. Each shot does a ton of damage - check out the following one-shot on a demonic chimpanzee (which not only one-shots it but also blows up all its limbs):

   You imagine sending a beam of violet light at chimpanzee.
   An intense beam of violet light erupts from your array of layered rainbow chitin epidermal
   plates striking the demonic male chimpanzee.
   The demonic male chimpanzee is bathed in scintillating violet light.
   The demonic male chimpanzee is epistemically nullified.
   The demonic male chimpanzee's head ceases to exist.
   The demonic male chimpanzee's right arm and right hand cease to exist.

   The demonic male chimpanzee drops his yew shortbow.
   The demonic male chimpanzee's left arm and left hand cease to exist.

   The demonic male chimpanzee drops his small leather quiver.
   The demonic male chimpanzee's left leg and left foot cease to exist.
   The demonic male chimpanzee's right foot ceases to exist.
   Pleasure races all through your body.
   The demonic male chimpanzee glows with shimmering light and disappears, instantly reappearing
   nearby in a flare of shimmering light.
   The small leather quiver falls apart from excessive damage.
   The demonic male chimpanzee dies.

• red - fire damage

• green - poison damage
• blue - cold damage
• indigo - causes mental afflictions
