Ores
Ores are lumps of rock that are rich in metallic components. These ores are then processed in order to turn them into pure metals. In real-life, this could be a mixture of crushing them, combining them with other materials, or simply smelting them.
Properties And Uses Edit
Each ore will turn into a 'base metal' when it is smelted. This is done by Smiths using their Smelt or Mass Smelt skills.
The metals can then be further alloyed, or turned into weapons and armour.
Ores Edit
Abysm Edit
A pitch-black ore, usually found at great depths. Believed to be quite prevalent within the Low Kingdoms, with whom it was first initially traded. When smelted, creates deep iron.
Acirassi Edit
A very hard, dense ore that is streaked with yellow and orange. The ore turns into the metal, acirassi, when smelted. Both the ore and the pure metal is highly prized by the Grol, who treat it with substantial reverence.
Bauxite Edit
A reddish ore with a flash of grey, it is used primarily to make aluminium.
