Soul gems are used to capture the souls of creatures in The Elder Scrolls: Online. The larger and more power the creature, the more powerful the empty soul gem required to capture it.
Once a soul has been captured, the soul gem is considered to be full and can then be used to recharge items or to revive a player. There are six kinds of normal soul gem:
