Firefly

A Firefly is a small flying insect found in the Shimla Mirch region, underground.

It is not unlike a Butterfly, in that it randomly flies around. A player's first time in the presence of a Firefly triggers the Firefly 3000 Lab quest, which allows the player to acquire a Firefly Whistle. This whistle is required for catching Fireflies, along with a Firefly Jar, which is also awarded during the quest. Extra or replacement Firefly Jars can be bought at any Alchemical Tools Vendor.

A full jar of 7 Fireflies, combined with 7 Barnacle Talc, can be made into a Plain Crystal, with the use of a Crystalmalizing Chamber.

The Block Making I Skill introduced 9 March, 2011, allowed glitches to create a variety of blocks used for new Street Projects. Some of the new blocks required a smaller number of fireflies per jar (i.e. 5 per jar) as one of the components needed to create a block.
