Korob's transmuter appeared in the form of a magical wand; this was consistent with the image he wished to project of himself as a sorcerer, an image pulled telepathically from the human subconscious. He never voluntarily released the device, it is possible that he could control it properly only when in physical contact; certainly, Sylvia could not control it when she was not in contact. The head of the instrument, a large faceted crystal, glowed when Korob used its power to restructure matter. | Korob's transmuter appeared in the form of a magical wand; this was consistent with the image he wished to project of himself as a sorcerer, an image pulled telepathically from the human subconscious.

Sylvia possessed a less powerful instrument; hers took the form of a [[crystal]] pendant, and was the only thing consistent across all her forms. It was evidently far less powerful than Korob's device, as she was not able to use it to alter the fortress-like headquarters he had created. Sylvia also described Korob's device as "holding the key"; it may be that all the advanced functions required it. Whatever the reason, Sylvia was desperate to possess the transmuter after Korob died, using various combinations of trickery and threat to persuade Captain Kirk to surrender it. Ultimately, Kirk destroyed the device, which undid everything Sylvia and Korob had created; it is possible that Sylvia's device was a tap that permitted her limited access to Korob's transmuter. | Sylvia possessed a less powerful instrument; hers took the form of a [[crystal]] pendant, and was the only thing consistent across all her forms.
