Bloodstone is a semiprecious stone once said to be important in ceremonial Magic. According to ancient lore, anyone who possesses and carries a bloodstone will be given whatever he asks for. Grimoires instruct a magician to carry a bloodstone, called an ematille and purchased from a druggist, as protection against unruly Demons they seek to invoke. The Grand Grimoire specifies that the magician should use his bloodstone to inscribe his Magic TRIANGLE.
