Effects in Other Media
In the animated series X-Men: Evolution the Gem of Cyttorak possessed different effects and abilities as rather than be an artifact of mystical origins (although it had been believed to be so in legend and superstition). It emitted a specific form of radiation that could accelerate mutations. Though the effects varied on mutants as seen below the general effects of the gem can be considered as the following:
- The gem accelerates the mutation of a mutant to its fullest potential, usually resulting in their bodies undergoing a physical change to adjust to the new power boost.
- The gem allows those affected by it to control their new powers perfectly.
- According to Magneto the gem also affected the minds of those exposed to the radiation which would explain how Cyclops and Havok acted after being exposed to it however others affected did not exhibit changes in their mental state so the reliability of his statement is unknown.

Famous quotes containing the words effects and/or media:
“Upon the whole, necessity is something, that exists in the mind, not in objects; nor is it possible for us ever to form the most distant idea of it, consider’d as a quality in bodies. Either we have no idea of necessity, or necessity is nothing but that determination of thought to pass from cause to effects and effects to causes, according to their experienc’d union.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“The question confronting the Church today is not any longer whether the man in the street can grasp a religious message, but how to employ the communications media so as to let him have the full impact of the Gospel message.”
—Pope John Paul II (b. 1920)
