Aeroresin

A rare material that can give powerful properties to weapons and creatures. The forging process for weapons is risky and can only be executed in the Gjerde Forges. The material is also what gives Fungifolk their powers, such as long distance messaging and precise location tracking.

Properties

Material Characteristics

In solid form, the material shows is slightly transparent turquoise. When heated sufficiently, aeroresin becomes a bright glowing slowly moving liquid that can be manipulated into shapes and integrated with hot metal for magical properties.

Physical & Chemical Properties

On a temperature scale, aeroresin is liquid in only a very small domain. In solid form, the material behaves much like a gemstone. In liquid form, the aeroresin behaves like a liquid metal would. In gas form, the material is highly dangerous (see:origin). The small temperature window in which aeroresin is liquid and the high dangers when it is gas, make this a high risk material for forging. However, the rewards are great. When aeroresin is mixed with metal, the forging of metal becomes significantly easier to the point where weapons nad items can be more easily brought to a high standard.

Origin & Source

Aeroresin is found in objects fallen from space onto the surface of the planet (called skystones, by locals). When insufficiently protected biomass enters the atmosphere of Tunoda, the protective magic compresses the biomass so tightly that aeroresin comes into existence. This type of skystone is usually charred on the outside and contains tiny pockets and veins of aeroresin. In the unlikely event that aeroresin is exposed to such an incredible amount of heat that it takes on its gas form, the souls of the late biomass have the chance to escape and take on their original shapes, in gas. Early experiments in the Gjerde Forges resulted in some disastrous accidents and epic fights between the smiths and aliens.
