Glooth

Glooth is a green liquid which is a product created by so-called "gloothworms". The gloothworm is only known to be found in Oramond although few if any outsiders have seen it. The term came from Baribar Glooth, one of the first inventors who had experimented with glooth and derived a number of uses from it. He discovered that applying lightning magic to glooth transformed it to be used as a metal substitute and later as a substitute for other products including food. The food is known to provide a special strength to the consumer.

Besides the creation of golems from "gloothal" to do work in the city of Rathleton some glooth-elemental creatures also somehow came into being and together with golems now run rampant in the city.

Glooth is an allusion to melange, or "spice", in the Dune universe.
