Silimatic technologies use glass made from different types of sand to produce differing effects. Silimatic glass can be used by anyone, but lenses can only be used by Oculators. Alcatraz Smedry has drawn parallels between Silimatic technologies and Smedry Talents in the past. He has also been able to increase the power of various Silimatic technologies.

Silimatic Sand[edit]

All types of Silimatic technology are made originally out of sand.

Brightsand: Brightsand is one of the most common types of sand. It lets off a glow that causes other types of sand, or glass, to do strange things. Brightsand powers most silimatic technology.

Dullsand: Dullsand is one of the only types of sand that don't do anything. The librarians have gone to great lengths to cover beaches in it to make sand seem common and boring, and thus of little value. It is possible that non-Silimatic glass is made of dullsand.

Silimatic Glass[edit]

Types of glass include the following:

Alivener's Glass: Also known as Glass of Alivening, Alivener's Glass can create Alivened by storing part of a Dark Oculator's humanity, making the Dark Oculator less humane in the process.

Builder's Glass: Builder's Glass is used as a building material. It is not as strong as Restoring Glass.^[1]

Communicator's Glass: When broken in half, Communicator's Glass allows communication between the two pieces for 20 days. Usually, both halves must be activated in order to allow for communication.^[2]^[3]. In extreme cases, this glass can communicate one way with ordinary glass, and it can also be set to transmit one way.^[3]

Defender's Glass: Defender's Glass protects structures that are inside it. It is extremely strong.

Detonator's Glass: Detonator's Glass explodes. It can be set to go off within a certain area.^[4]

Enforcer's Glass: Enforcer's Glass is impossible to break, even with a Smedry Talent.^[5] It is used to make handcuffs.^[6]

Expander's Glass: Expander's Glass allows the inside of a structure or object built within it to be bigger than its outside. It is deep lavender in color.^[7] It is very difficult to break, even with a Talent.^[8]

Grappler's Glass: Grappler's Glass clings to other surfaces, influencing gravity. It is used on the bottoms of boots to enable people to walk up surfaces. It supports the whole body instead of only fixing the foot in place. It is often used by Alcatraz to walk on Silimatic vehicles such as the Hawkwind and the Dragonaut.

Inhibitor's Glass: Inhibitor's Glass stops those touching it from using Silimatic technology or Smedry Talents. It may have been used by librarians to stop messaging to and from Tuki Tuki.

Illuminator's Glass: Illuminator's Glass is an uncanonical name for the glass used to illuminate the trunk of clothes Alcatraz was trying on.^[3]

Messenger's Glass: Messenger's Glass is used as a means of communication. The Librarians destroyed Mokia's supply of Messenger's Glass.^[9]

Orientation Glass: Orientation Glass influences the direction of gravity. It is used inside vehicles that might get upside-down.

Protective Glass: Protective Glass emits a protective field capable of stopping a full Crystin punch. The exact name of this glass type is unknown.^[10]

Rebuilder's Glass

Recognizer's Glass

Reinforcer's Glass

Restoring Glass: Restoring Glass easily shatters at the touch of an Oculator, but restores itself when the Oculator moves away from it. It is incredibly strong otherwise. It is black in color.^[7]

Sentinel's Glass

Shielder's Glass

Snarer's Glass: Snarer's Glass is used for traps. However, each square can only be triggered one time.^[6]

Transporter's Glass: Transporter's Glass is used in pairs. When activated at the exact same time, it can instantly swap the locations of two objects, usually glass boxes, that have exactly same size.^[11] If more than two identically sized transporter's boxes are activated at the same time, the occupants would be killed.

Unknown: A type of glass used to warn of Librarian illusions in the Penguinator's cockpit.^[12]

Oculators Powering Silimatic Technology[edit]

During his time in Nalhalla, Alcatraz discovers that Oculators can power Silimatic technology without brightsand.^[13] The amount of brightsand required to power it, though, correlates to how much of the Oculator's power is used.

-Lenses are only usable by [[Oculator]]s, unless they are forged in the blood of an Oculator, such as the ones used by the [[Scrivener's Bones]]. [[Dark Oculator]]s sometimes only use a monocle, instead of the classic glasses shape, in order to focus the lens' power. Lenses include:

-;Courier's Lenses: Allow short-range communication between two Oculators when both are wearing them, however, Alcatraz managed to extend that range by pushing more power into the Lenses.{{book ref|scrivener's bones|2}} The user mentally hears the voice of the other Oculator and sees a hologram of their upper body. They are generally tinted baby blue.{{book ref|scrivener's bones|1}}

-;Discerner's Lenses: Tell the wearer how old something is in the form of a glow that grows duller the older the object is.{{book ref|scrivener's bones|8}}Their tint is unknown.
+;Unknown: A type of glass used to warn of Librarian illusions in the ''[[Penguinator]]'''s cockpit.{{book ref|a5|Trillian}}
-;Disguisers Lenses: Allow the wearer to look like anything they want, but the lenses are visible within the disguise. They are tinted lavender.
-;Educator's Lenses: When worn, time slows for the wearer.{{book ref|shattered lens|four teens and a pickle}} Unknown tint.
-;Firebringer's Lenses: When switched on, which only takes a small amount of concentration or power, these powerful lenses gather the light around them and shoot it out in concentrated beams. They are clear with a dot of red at the center of each lense.
-;Frostbringer's Lenses: A Lens that is essentially the opposite of the Firebringers Lens, this Lens can direct a beam of frost at the target. This Lens is used by the Scrivener Bones.
-;Harrier's Lenses: Magnify the pain of someone you focus on.{{wob ref|11355}} Their tint is unknown.
-;Oculator's Lenses: Allow Oculators to see/sense Oculations or more generally they show you things that you need to see. They can also be used to counter other Oculators' attack.{{book ref|a1|3}} They have a red or pink tint.

-;Shaper's Lenses: allows the occulator see someones "heart, soul, and innermost desires,"([[Leavenworth Smedry]]){{book ref|dark talent|mary}}.

-;Shocker's Lenses: Emit a beam of light that knocks anyone looking at the user unconscious. Very difficult to use.{{book ref|a1|11}}

Everyone has a unique footprint, and the longer the user knows a person, the longer their footprints stay visible.{{book ref|a1|4}} Family, however, is who one knows best, so their footprints stay a very long time, no matter how little the user thinks they know them.{{book ref|a1|20}} They are tinted yellow.{{book ref|a1|2}}
-;Translator's Lenses (Lenses of Rashid): Forged from the [[Sands of Rashid]], which are incredibly rare. Let the wearer understand, read, and write in any language, code, or alphabet, including [[Quentin Smedry]]'s nonsense.{{book ref|a1|19}}{{book ref|a1|20}} Their tint is unknown.

When they are lying, bugs/black critters spew from their mouths. The only known lense belongs to [[Alcatraz]] and used to belong to [[Allekatrase]] the First. They have no tint.
-;Torturer's Lenses: Cause intense agony in the target and make the muscles begin to rip.{{book ref|a1|12}} Five seconds of use causes the target permanent harm.{{book ref|a1|13}} They are tinted green and black.
-;Warrior's Lenses: Enhances the wearers physical abilities. This is one of the only lenses that a non-Oculator can use. They are tinted dark grey or black.
-;Windstormer's Lenses: Create gusts of wind that blow away from the Oculator. Leavenworth uses them to create a bubble of calm winds around the wielder, but this is extremely difficult. The Lenses are tinted green.{{book ref|scrivener's bones|1}}
-;Voidstormer's Lenses: These are the opposite of the Windstormer's Lenses; ie they suck things towards the user.
