Profile
Pyrites are small cubes made of solid tofu with L-shaped holes for faces. These holes have an orange glow, likely in reference to how real pyrite sparks when struck by metal. On Mohs scale of mineral hardness, pyrites rank 6. It is also said they gain consciousness at 12 millimeters. In the Japanese version of both games, their text is written entirely in messy hiragana, and they sporadically end sentences with プ pu or substitute う ~u characters with ぷ pu. For example, they say うちゅうせん uchūsen (spaceship) as ぷちゅうせん puchūsen.

Most pyrites are named after Italian-American slang and idioms, though the spelling is written phonetically, and their names also reflect how they act. A pyrite named Yerpushin Yerluk (you're pushing your luck) will warn people not to get on their bad side, or Wantza Layaroun (wants to lay around) is unmotivated and talks lazily.

As equipment
In Magical Starsign, pyrites at Uponisbak and Path of Five Organs can be collected as accessory items. Alternatively, they can be sold for 1600 bira.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
A pyrite appears in the game as a trophy. Like other Magical Vacation series trophies, Magical Vacation is omitted in their appearances.

Trivia

 * Pyrites only have unique names in Magical Starsign. However, in the English fan translation of Magical Vacation, pyrites that live in Garam Masala are given unique names.
 * In the files of Magical Starsign, there exist battle sprites of a pyrite, suggesting it was going to be an optional party member. It appears to be amorphous, able to assume spherical and spiky shapes on command.
