Arium

Arium is a metal found in the coral deposits off the coast of Portsmouth . When the metal vibrates it has a curious property of changing density. No wonder it thrives in coral essentially living rock that is very porous made up of many organisms.

Properties

Physical & Chemical Properties

Arium melts easily, The metal is under constant vibration and transforms under high pitched sonic activity. Thus in combat a sword may change it's density. A lock pick connected to a tuning fork might penetrate into a hole.

Geology & Geography

Arium is found in coral deposits mostly off the coast of Portsmouth and particularly off the coast of the Wrackshore.

Origin & Source

Arium was first formed after the great Deluge when the great magnetic mountains were torn apart by whirlpools openning up to faerie. The metal is an elemental metal child of magic and magnetism a byproduct of the great Magnensial Shift

Type

Ore/Mineral

Color

Fluctuates between silver and gold.

Boiling / Condensation Point

Very low.

Melting / Freezing Point

660 Celsius. Arium has a very low melting point yet it may coalesce stronger than steel. Thus weapons made of Arium are susceptible to melting by quick bursts of magical fire. or cold.

Density

Arium changes in density. Subject to change by sonic vibrations.

Common State

Inside Coral.
