Magmasteel
A glowing, red-hot ore that only exists within the Plane of Fire in the Elemental Chaos, this exceptionally rare material has been sought after by the greatest blacksmiths since it was first discovered. Believed to exist deep within the forever-volcanic mountains of the Plane of Fire, this ore is but a myth to most. Mined with special tools, and smelted within forges crafted from the very rock surrounding it, this is no normal steel.
From gathering this resource as near-molten ore to refining it into the veined, glowing steel known as Magmasteel, this resource is as dangerous to handle as it is to acquire. Afforded its unique properties by the millennia spent absorbing the energies of the Plane of Fire, Magmasteel is named after its striking appearance - the veins visible on the surface seeming to contain flowing lava. Extremely hot to the touch, crafting weapons and armour from this material is something only the greatest blacksmiths in history could even dream of. Items crafted from it come with a life-time guarantee, regardless of the wielder's expected lifespan.
A collector would be interested to know that there are several materials similar to Magmasteel, themed around the Elemental Chaos. For Air, there is Aerosteel, Earth Runesteel, and Water has Aquasteel.
