{{Item Table|
=== Peas ===
| Olthoi Helm
Peas are concentrated forms of spell components that can be purchased from a small number of mage shopkeepers, including [[Mastermage]]s. Scarab peas can also be found as loot on creatures. To convert a pea to its usable form, use a [[Splitting Tool]] on the pea which creates 20-50 spell components. Most people sell the scarab peas they find for pyreals rather than split them to use the components.
