Obsidian is a material used in the creation of portals between realities.

Appearance

Being a durable material, obsidian has a rugged appearance, covered in scratches and dents. It is a dark purple, near black glass with a smooth body and rough edges.

Properties

When placed in the correct positions, any piece of obsidian can be used to create a frame. Using a special tool on it, such as flint and steel or the Earth Cube, can create a portal, connecting two different worlds within the multiverse. If combined with diamonds, it can also be used to create an enchanting table, capable of upgrading items with magical functions, such as thorns, fire aspect, fortune, and punch.

Through unknown means, it is able to succumb to a form of ruin, known as crying obsidian. This renders it incapable of being used for travel. It has also been observed as the material for a type of chest known as an ender chest, used by Steve to hold an earth crystal.
