Materia Stone Magic Store
Materia stones are crystallized magical energy that has taken the shape of a small round gem or stone. It must be found, and cannot be manufactured. Almost all Materia can be used with both weapons and armor, imbuing special properties. Any weapon or armor can only hold one Materia at a time, at the DM's discretion he can introduce super rare weapons or armors with more than one Materia slot.
Materia Sockets
Mundane weapons or armors may have sockets inserted into them by taking the item in question to a skilled Jeweler. Creating a socket for Materia is typically inexpensive for non-magical items. Adding a socket to a Magical item would be far more expensive and may require a Master Jeweler or Enchanter.
Swapping Materia
Materia can be instantly slotted into an item without any skill required, as the socket conducts the stones power and channels it. Taking Materia out of a socket can be done by anyone unskilled but it will take about 5 minutes to carefully remove it from its socket (essentially not possible in combat).
Optionally a DM may require a short rest to allow a player to re-distribute their Materia.
Attunement (Optional)
Any weapon or armor with Materia socketed in it will have to be attuned in order to gain the benefits of the Materia. If you socket a magical item that already requires attunement you do not need to use 2 attunement slots if Materia is placed in it.
