'''Amber''' is the result of tree sap becoming hardened and/or fossilized. Insects or small organisms can become trapped and preserved in amber. 

The sap of the [[Kypari]] trees in the [[Dread Wastes]] and [[Townlong Steppes]] contains magical properties. It can be hardened and shaped into objects, used as building materials, eaten as food, and contains other uses through a kind of amber magic mastered by the [[mantid]]. The first [[Klaxxi]] [[Paragon]], [[Korven the Prime]], found a way to use the amber's preservative properties to preserve mantid of significant power as Paragons to fight when the [[Mantid Empire]] was in a time of greatest need. [[Kaz'tik the Manipulator]] would later master the process and preserve both himself and his pet [[kunchong]] [[Kovok]]. Much of the Empire's amber and Kypari trees were corrupted or destroyed by the [[Sha of Fear]].

==As a companion pet==
*[[Amber Goo Puddle]] is a rare drop from [[Amber-Shaper Un'sok]] in the [[Heart of Fear]].

==Jewelcrafting==
There is no player-obtainable raw gem named amber, so there are no craftable designs for them. However, there are a number of cut amber gems available from vendors.
