Thales' Amber

Origin
Thales of Miletus was a pre-Socratic philosopher, mathematician and astronomer regarded by many as one of the first philosophers. Thales attempted to explain natural phenomena without reference to mythology and nearly all following philosophers before Socrates would do the same. He theorized origin of nature and matter was derived from water and noted the electric spark created off lodestone and amber was probably the energy that allowed matter to change form. Thales also accurately predicted the date of a solar eclipse, created several theorems commonly used in geometry.

Effects
Rubbing it and placing it on an object produces infective static cling. Its strength and scale will be amplified greatly when it contacts sunlight or water particles.
