The Yellow Gem is an item used to craft Ancient items. It is required in two crafting recipes; Magiluminescence and Star Caller's Staff.

The Magiluminescence is an amulet that emits light, increases movement speed, and provides a Sanity boost when worn.

The Star Caller's Staff summons a Dwarf Star that emits light and heat. It can also be used to Cook Food.
