Hadari

"The Hadari bloom is a magnificent sight to behold, with its graceful dance and hidden potential for destruction. It's found only in the depths of the ocean. This reminder emphasized the need for greater caution when dealing with enchantments of great power."

— Neria, Discoverer of the Hadari Tree and Blooms

The realm of the merfolk hold a valuable secret - Hadari, a rare and valuable raw material found only in the ocean's depths. Wires and components made from this material are crucial for magical technology to function well. The merfolk found the Hadari trees. They are underwater trees, which sway gently with the current, their blooms casting a dreamy glow.
As the blooms breach the ocean's surface, it undergoes a transformation and turns into metal. This metal has unique properties that can conduct immense amounts of magic. Hadari in bloom form requires delicate handling, as it is highly unstable and prone to explosions until it solidifies into a stable metal. Once it has cured, the substance is completely safe to handle and doesn't not have any known explosive properties.

Compatibility with Technology

Technologists use enchantments and rituals to make Hadari metal compatible with technology and Adana Sihiri Crystals. The refining processes enhances the metal's conductivity to magic. This guarantees its compatibility and effectiveness when combined with magical machinery.

Properties

Material Characteristics

Bloom: vibrant and iridescent colors, resembling a luminescent flower.
Metal: hardened rock with a polished metallic sheen
Delicate and beautiful, the bloom stands in stark contrast to the durable, malleable, and conductive metal.

Physical & Chemical Properties

The exceptional magical conductivity and stability of Hadari metal enables it to transmit magical energy with remarkable efficiency.

Compounds

Hadari Specialists focus on the creation of Hadari metal to produce materials for magic technology, such as wires and components. Hadari Metal's versatility seamlessly integrated it into various magical devices. This amplifies their capabilities and enables the smooth transfer of magical energy.

Origin & Source

Hadari was first discovered by the mermaid, Neria, an merfolk explorer. She uncovered a stunning grove of Hadari trees and their flowers deep beneath the sea, near the Kraken's cave. Neria realized the magical potential of Hadari and shared her discovery with other merfolk. The merfolk spread teh knowledge of it within their communities and to the surface world.

Life & Expiration

The Hadari bloom, once cut from its roots, has a limited half-life and loses its ability to store magical power. Its magical properties are temporary, as the bloom's organic composition breaks down and it loses its power within days.

Once shaped, Hadari metal has a remarkable ability to hold magickal power for extended periods, unlike other metals. The storage capacity and capability of the metal depends on both the metal's quality and the enchantments used in the devices. A Hadari-infused artifact or technology that is well made can maintain its magical charge for an extended period.

History & Usage

Discovery

Neria, a Mermaid explorer, first discovered the Hadari trees, allowing the merfolk to harness its magical properties and exploit its potential applications.

Everyday use

• Wires and Components: With the help of the Hadari wires and components, magical energy flows smoothly and allows the machines to operate at peak efficiency.
• Magical Conduits: With the Hadari metal's help, magical energy becomes more potent, and spells and enchantments on technology become more precise.

Byproducts & Sideproducts

Hadari's refinement and manufacturing processes are sustainable and leave no harmful residue or byproducts.

Hazards

While the bloom is beautiful, it is also incredibly dangerous because of its volatile nature and potential for explosions. During harvesting and processing, it's vital to take proper precautions and have specialized expertise. Several factors can trigger an explosion, including:

• Sudden Changes In Pressure
• Intense Physical Agitation
• Exposure to Extreme Heat

Reusability & Recycling

The versatility of Hadari metal allows it to be repurposed and reused in various applications. Mages and artisans often collect discarded Hadari wires and components. They refine them to remove impurities before incorporating them into new magical devices and artwork.

Trade & Market

Supply Chain

Hadari Harvesters

These are merfolk who undertake the risky task of harvesting the Hadari bloom from the underwater trees. They employ careful techniques to ensure the blooms remain intact during extraction, and make it to the surface for the transformation to metal.

Hadari Specialists

The harvesters carefully hand over the harvested blooms to Hadari Specialists. With their magical abilities and expertise, they convert the blooms into the exquisite Hadari metal. By harnessing their abilities, they control the process of magical chemistry with precision.

Merfolk Merchants and Traders

At this stage of the supply chain, surface dwelling merchants and traders are buying raw Hadari metal from the Merfolk traders and selling it to Mages and Enchanters to be refined.

Technologists

Technologists buy the raw Hadari metal from the merchants and traders. They skillfully refine the Hadari metal. The technologist carefully shapes and crafts each piece of metal into specific wires and components.

Commercial Traders

Traders sell the Hadari made wires and components to magical academies, technologists, and other buyers in the realm.

Mages and Enchanters

Mages and enchanters create a wide variety of machinery, devices, and magickal artifacts. They create magical technology, with these devices and Adana Sihiri Crystals, ready for the consumer.

Merchants

Merchants buy magical technology from the mages and enchanters. They sell them to the consumers.
