Trapezohedrons are special items found in the series.

History[]

A solid figure whose faces are trapeziums or trapezoids. In H.P. Lovecraft's story "The Haunter in the Dark," the Shining Trapezohedron is a "crazily angled stone" of extraterrestrial origin. Those who look into the trapezohedron receive visions of distant worlds and cosmic secrets, but doing so may unleash the titular Haunter in the Dark, an avatar of Nyarlathotep that can only exist in darkness.
