I found this gem and used it and it disappeared. What was it and where did it go??? I also found a skull that when I used it it just disappeared like the gem.. Whatt is up with these items???
Collectibles. They disappear when used, and are registered as Achievements. You can put them in the bank so that if, say, you have multiple characters who end up getting Collectibles, you can transfer them all to one character in hopes of eventually getting all the Collectible Achievements. When the patch is done I believe there'll be a Tutorial pop up that says so (finally) so funny you would ask right now.
They are collectible trophies, and unlock corresponding kill achievements. For instance, collecting all the trophies from Daedra for the Kill Daedra achievement. The drops are quite rare and typically require a lot of farming.
In order of conception: Castnia Ashwind VR14 Nightblade; original Day 1 Vampire, bloodfiends, not bought. You're probably in my family tree. Jul'eh Kaleh VR14 Templar Lysnta Ashwind VR14 Sorcerer
What you found was a Multifaceted Eye that looks like a cut ruby. It is an extremely rare collectible item, so congratulations! In your case from a Nix Hound I believe.
All you need now is a house and a glass display cupboard to place you gem in for your guests to stare in awe and marvel at the rare item. As always, lock your house with magical locks and wards before you adventure lest the many thieves now rampant across Tamriel come knocking. Just saying
