Gold orbs are magical objects similar to blue, black or white crystals or small statues. They are crumbly and found commonly in loot on critters. The function of Gold Orbs though is specifically to charging other common magic crumblies. So you have a blue crystal and want it charged? Find adventurer who has enough skill to take a blue crystal in one hand after they have rubbed a gold orb! When they do, they will be able to make an attempt at placing the two blue crystals together for a result that is a blue crystal with two charges. The gold orb will usually have a few rubs like a small statue does. The success factor is based primarily on level and skill sets with spell circles being a major factor. So a wizard is going to have a lot better odds generally at combining two white or black crystals than a blue one. A master of the spirit circles would be encouraged with their odds at combining small statues or blue crystals.
It would be a fun way to save space in the locker or containers.
Gold orbs are very soft and heavy. If adventurer consumes the orb as food, they will be forced into a deep slumber and unable to wake up for at least a minute but at the end of that they will have regenerated their spirit and mana at a faster rate.
