Police file on the man found holding the crystal.
Name : Chester Bonifer
Age: 54
Place of residence: 17 Rodeo Drive, Steel Canyon suburbs.
Previous convictions: None
Summary of Interview and Investigation:
Suspect was at the centre of a riot located at The New Paragon Bank, 82 Witherstreet, Galaxy City. We have confirmed that Bonifer, is a regular at this branch despite living in Steel Canyon.
Security cameras show Bonifer waiting in line to see a bank cashier, gradually becoming more and more agitated as time goes on, after a certain point those around him began to show signs of agitation too.
After ten minutes a fight broke out in the rear section of the line, quickly spreading into a mass brawl, at this point Bonifer began to show pyrokinetic abilities. There are no indications, that he has ever had such powers previously.
Once subdued by a team of meta-humans, a red crystal (Object A) fell from his pocket and began to hover. Bonifer said he had found it on his way to the bank, and was intending to hand it in to a police station on his way home. Given Bonifers history of returning lost items to the Police, we currently are taking his word at face value.
M.A.G.I reports indicate that Object A, is some form of emotional focus point, created by some unknown being or beings, to magnify and spread a particular emotions. M.A.G.I report that this crystal is attuned to Rage, heightening the holders feelings of wrath and then spreading it to others around him or her.
Since Bonifer was affected by an unknown magical artefact he will not be charged. Once psychological and M.A.G.I reports indicate there are no lasting effects to the incident, he will be released.

Souvenir
Touching the crystal, would make those susceptible to magic or psychic power, become increasingly overwhelmed with an insatiable greed, for food and drink. This affect is caused by the act of touching or holding the crystal, even through power armour or gloves, however the affect isnt triggered if the crystal is contained within something, say a bag or other container.
M.A.G.I reports would soon indicate that it is indeed, like the red crystal found during the incident at The New Paragon Bank, 82 Witherstreet, Galaxy City on the 05/03/2010.
However where as the red crystal is a focus point of Rage or Fury, this one is a focus point of hunger and thirst, again the crystal is two inches long and a half inch thick, someone with knowledge of how to cut gem stones, would notice that it appears to have been cut, all the way down one side, as if the crystal had once been half of a bigger gem stone.

Brawling Cactus from a distant planet.
After the IC mission of 03/05/2010.
Current clue is being processed by M.A.G.I
Red Crystal
It is a deep red in colour, like a drop of crystallized blood, and opaque enough to see through, however when looking through the crystal people around the observer would seem to be filled with rage, their expression twisted into grotesque masks of anger.
Physically the crystal is two inches long and a half inch thick, someone with knowledge of how to cut gem stones, would notice that it appears to have been cut, all the way down one side, as if the crystal had once been half of a bigger gem stone.
Just touching this oddly faceted gem, would cause those susceptible to magic to begin to fill with an intense rage and hatred of those around them, every negative thought would be magnified, every slight would demand blood as repayment. Eventually the magic would spill over, infecting others near the holder.Once the person lets go of the crystal the magic fades, and people quickly return to normal.
Carrying the crystal in a container, such as a bag or jar does not cause the magic to trigger, however touching it directly, even while wearing gloves does so.The crystal itself seems to be a focus point, as if some being had spent millennia focusing their hate and rage on one point in space and time, it is clearly some form of magical artefact when given even the weakest of "is it magic?" tests.
