Magical Dissemination Centrifuge
A Magical Dissemination Centrifuge refers to a magical machine that can discern the make up of any magical substance, potion, or item.
Comes in three sizes, none of which can be easily carried, and often requires the aid of several craftspeople to make.
Small Centrifuge: For common and uncommon substances. Can fit comfortable upon a wall in a typical office.
Medium Centrifuge: For common to very rare substances. Needs a tall, sturdy wall with many bracers.
Large Centrifuge: For common to unique substances. Needs it's own room and is often braced, protected, and diligently maintained.
Mechanics & Inner Workings
The Magical Dissemination Centrifuge works by placing the object once wishes to study in the testing chamber of the machine. After closing the lid and activating the machine via magical power (spell points equal to the rarity of the object, see table below), the machine spins. The spinning sends the various magical and mundane makeups of the item throughout its chamber, and when complete, spells out the astrolenga name for all its components. If there is no name for it in astrolenga it instead gives off symbols or illusions that give clues as to the objects nature. Discerning these can take some time, and the accuracy/calrity of them depends on how many spell points were put to power the machine.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Common | 2 | 1 | Instant | S,M,L | Instant |
| Uncommon | 3 | 2 | 1 Hour | S,M,L | 2 Hours |

| Very Rare | 8 | 5 | 1 Day | M,L | 3 Days |
| Legendary | 13 | 8 | 1 Week | L | 2 Weeks |
| Unique | 21 | 13 | 1 Month | L | Varies (1 Month - 1 Year) |
Significance
Such a machine is integral to the study of magical potions, substances, and items, but is also extremely rare and hard to come by. Crafting takes an enormous amount of time, and disseminating an item's makeup takes a great deal of time.

Often when making one of these, a Mastersmith and his team is paid to build one. This increases the upfront cost to roughly one third of the materials. However if one already has the materials, then the cost is only for the labor.
