History
The only known natural substance that block the optic blasts of Cyclops without damage.[1] The crystal resonates at the same frequency as the psionic field that protects both Cyclops and Havok from their own powers.[2]
Used in:
- Cyclops' visor and eye glasses.[3]
- Cyclops' Ruby-Quartz Sunglasses which he wore in his civilian guise.[3]
- Cyclops has a pair of Ruby-Quartz Contact Lenses.
- There is a weapon called "Ruby Quartz Rifle" that fires blasts, used by S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents on Earth-12131.[7]
- The android double of Cameron Hodge was encased in crystal armor that resembled a prism. The faceted armor could reflect the optic blasts of Cyclops.[8]
- A Hellfire Knight armor.[9]
Notes
- In New X-Men #131, Cyclops explains that light turns yellow in the Ruby-Quartz shield of his visor. However, a flashback in Astonishing X-Men Vol 3 #14 has Scott mention that he sees things tinged with red. This second account is reinforced in Champions Vol 2 #12, in which a series of panels shown from Cyclops' point of view are colored in shades of red.
- In the animated episodes X-Men: Evolution Season 1 13 and X-Men: Evolution Season 3 5, Cyclops' point of view is also shown colored in shades of red.
