soul stone
Essence containment gem
A soul stone is a magical object in fantasy games and fiction that captures or contains a person's soul—typically for resurrection, power transfer, or binding spirits.
In games like Diablo, soul stones imprison demons; in World of Warcraft, warlocks use them to store souls for later revival.
The concept appears across many fantasy settings: The necromancer trapped the hero's essence in a soul stone.
Marvel's Infinity Gauntlet includes a Soul Stone among its cosmic gems.
