my ******* eyes

So far the plans for it are a Non-lt-signed mineral, meaning pretty much anyone can gather it without need for an lt/et, as you would for carbarum or boomsteel. I’ll have more details on this type of things toward the end of the projects.

Anethra would visit the dilapidated grove of his resting frequently, as a place of meditation and a place of reflection. She’d considered all the things she had done, the lies told and the masks worn. A familiar voice had returned to her, it’s masculine and smooth tone overpowering the rest of her anxious thoughts that echoed her own voice. ”You’re back” the voice replied, tauntingly. ”I want it to be over.” ”Well, things are not so easy. They’ll always be there, as you will.” ”I want it to be over.” she replied, in an almost threatening tone. ”Over, then? Do you recall being strangled, behind a tree in such a grove- the tears welled in your puffed face, as you begged for mercy.” Anethra did not respond, for a moment, as she took the thoughts to mind. ”I recall the girl who spoke of wanting to die was strangled within an inch of her life, and she clawed with her bloodied and broken fingers to live. Do you remember now, Ane?” Anethra began to tear, gritting and grinding her teeth. “Why is it so unfair.” ”..our story is that of betrayal, depression and hatred- you seethe, Ane, why do you not take back what is right?” ”I cannot.” she replied quickly, and curtly- almost affirmative. “I cannot do that.” ”Then the story goes on.”

as wootz steel / damascus steel in the real world has had it’s “recipe” so to speak or instructions upon how to replicate it lost and only modern techniques “mimic” what we know of wootz/damascus, yes, this would be (as in the real world) to make genuine versions of it, while you could fabricate and artificially for lack of a better term replicate it’s pattern with just regular steel, it would not be the same as wootz/damascus.

it aint easy bein cheesy some of the questions here are answered in the lore others such as “rigidity/strength/malleability/ductileness” i can see edited, alongside effects of magnetus-magnetus interactions and defining the specific type of magnetism. I’ll be sure they’re brought up and the changes are made.

always idolized your writing and the tone you capture that is so difficult to replicate in my own, and inspired me to find my own style to write to get the reader to feel something. Thank you for your writing and your undeniable impact on the server, I was saddened when you were LM and I saw you were so much swamped I wondered how you weren’t burnt out earlier. Your passion and talent are undeniable, have a good one man.

Anethra lay upon the floor of her empty home, red-and-blonde hair unfurled throughout the floor that she rest her head on. A hand was outstretched above her as she held a locket of a quartz-butterfly that swayed gently in her grasp above. She reflected on the news, and what she’d read, internally.

1> yes 2> what it’s a metal with unique properties lore and aesthetics that can be applied to other metals in alloy and make them behave differently and has had a niche in lotc lore for as long as its been around but i suppose i don’t understand what you’re saying or asking

kadarsi ore can be aligned with any other metal to adapt its properties qualashi steel has always been a steel with unique breaking properties and aesthetics the changes in this lore are nothing to nerf it, save the aurum interaction

The LT has moved away from allowing Aurum to become stronger as Slayersteel was a heavily disliked piece of lore and we are not looked to “buff” it, but to allow a changed aesthetic and property that is unique to Kadarsi Ore that is added to the item that makes it behave different. It can still easily be simply repaired as it just bends.

Material Name and Description (Raw Form) Used primarily as one of the primary alloying elements in the creation of Qalashi Steel, Kadarsi Ore is a somewhat uncommon element. Typically found in the basis of Alluvial fans of desert climates, Qualashi ore is found beneath the initial sediment and ground-clutter in small patches. Appearing as a dark, opaque crystal, Kadarsi Ore runs like rivers through sandstone as opposed to forming in typical crystalline formations. Applications (Raw Form) Due to the relatively weak nature of the material, Kadarsi Ore tends to have very few applications outside of a decorative nature. Its one true use comes from its usefulness in the alloying process that results is Qalashi Steel. Red Lines (Raw Form) - The raw form of the material has the weaknesses that any natural crystal does in that it is generally weak and breaks on direct forceful contact. - The crystal very dully reflects light and allows light to pass through it in the same fashion as light interacts with murky water. Harvesting Method Due to the naturally crystalline nature of the material, directly striking against the material damages the material and makes it more or less useless in the alloying process. To successfully exhume the ore from its stone holding, the stone around it must be carefully chipped away from the crystal’s surface. While some fragments of the stone may be allowed to remain going into the alloying process, they would account for a factor of impurity in the process and lower the strength of the resulting material so the complete removal of the stone is necessary. Material Name and Description (Refined Form) Qalashi Steel, the result of alloying Kadarsi Ore and ferrum, presents itself as having a wavy, gray appearance. With an appearance very much like that of damascus steel in the wavy patterns of silver and grey. When struck with great force, rather than shattering or breaking as steel would, Kadarsi steel would merely bend. The bending permanent, until repaired by a proper smith- making them popular among such as they are easily repaired. Red Lines (Refined Form) - Qalashi Steel itself is not particularly stronger than basic steel in terms of breakage but maintains better deformation qualities that allow for easier repair and reforging when necessary - The alloying of Kadarsi Ore with anything other than ferrum greatly diminishes the properties of the originating material but provides steel-like properties in doing so. Meaning, keeping ‘steel’ level quality at maximum, the blade would behave with the properties of Qualashi steel. - In alloying Kadarsi with aurum, the blade would keep the property of breakage and weakness of aurum, but would bend rather than breaking entirely- however- if attempted to alloy Kadarsi ore, aurum, and another metal, the effects of Aurum would be entirely lost. -Qualashi steel when bent (broken) is recognized as being unusable and impractical, and inferior to all other blades. Refining Technique The technique for making Qalashi Steel is not like that of typical alloy forging. By using a forging method called pattern welding, the forming of a blade of several metal pieces of differing composition that are forge-welded together, twisted, and folded over one another to form patterns, the steel is slowly hardened. While the process of pattern welding is typically a long one to begin with, the care that must be taken when folding the Kadarsi into the material is itself a slow process. As a result of the extended smithing time, blades or other products made through this method are typically very time-consuming with little payout in terms of improved material qualities other than the odd flowing water type pattern and unique breaking property. Using the forging process of the alloyed material, the following would be a step-by-step on the post-shaping effects upon how to achieve the proper alloy. -With bevel-ended plates, the Qualashi steel would be brought together under flame of forge to ~1300F, presenting a dull-rosed colour. -Applying flux to the non-beveled centre of the steel, would enhance and raise the heat significantly to that of the thinner edges. The flux may bubble, and such indicates that the impurities are gone, if such were present. -The colour must be even all throughout the steel, and means that the blade is prepared to be pattern-welded, otherwise requiring near complete even heating all throughout to consider manipulation. -Drawing the steel then, and hammering to half of it’s original thickness while dulling to orange-hot. However, excessive hammering or heating will results in cracks or impurities in the design of the blade, not affecting physical properties but impurifying aesthetics. -Finally, the metal is folded and cut with repeated fluxing, drawn out thinner and thinner while still extremely hot, creating a natural wood-grain effect,. This effect may be intensified with the addition of polish or proper grinding, but as default, the blade after creation would bear the famous damascus-pattern alongside a sharpened edge. Purpose (OOC) Qualashi steel is a piece of lore that has potential but has gone to the wayside both as a forgotten and unused metal, and with this write and some small additions will hopefully see revival and more widespread useage.

Citation Original Lore: Criticism is of course always welcome so long as it is constructive. As a small update, The Materials Project has gone through a lot of ups and downs with members frequently coming and going, but Riftblade and Myself have made excellent progress and are looking to get things regularly going again- expect a post from him sometime soon of more lore he has written. Have a splendid day

The wilting Uradir looked down from the stands to Silir, things seemed to move in slow. There was a constant ringing in her ears, that was increasingly loud, unable to discern most other sounds. She could not breathe, nor could she try. She watched as her cousin raised his blade in proclamation, the words coming and going throughout her mind as a distant dream. A voice appeared in her head, deep, and rugged. Distinctly masculine, though nearly as if two of this voice spoke at once. ”Ane? Are you there?” ”Yeah.” ”This seems unfair. What are you going to do?” ”I don’t know.” ”Well why not?” ”I’m afraid. Everything he has worked so hard to keep I will lose.” ”Do something about it, Ane.” ”I can’t.” ”You are always like this. Just decide.” ”I can’t.” she stuttered in her thoughts. ”You’re disappointing. Stay that way, stay a failure as he wants you to be. Stay the person you’ve strided to not be, that you need so much help to not be. Stay a failure, stay an outcast, stay a device of other’s plots. You are nothing.” Anethra continued to watch her cousin speak, as fleeting words of his speech pierced her mind like silver. Her eyes frantically stared and stayed with evermoving pupils. It breached her mind as the ringing grew louder and the voice devolved into static, blaringly loud as she watched blood spurt from the throat of her cousin, and onto the silvered floors of the throneroom. Her cousin fell to his knees, and collapsed onto his chest as the ichorous pool expanded around him, muddling his tarnished armour and torn red cloak. “SILIR!” she exclaimed, rushing toward him. The ringing and voice had left, the uproar of the crowd around her was what had filled her ears. She approached as he choked and sputtered, she could not see his face but she yearned to for the life of her. She tried desperately to pick him up as tears streaked down her face. The act was over, nothing in the world mattered anymore. Anethra was no longer of a Talonii, no longer of an order- she was an Uradir. She attempted fervently to deliver him to the medical office which would not hold him, the time she had clutched his hand, the last of his strength and life was fading. Her mind screamed, as the voice was overwhelming her in multiple occasions and tones, utterly lost and confused, she could not tell what was real and what could not. Her magic faded, her blood emboldened into a fury. The bottle of emotions saved over decades was opened, and it would be let loose. Hell hath no fury.

whats your favorite map whats your favorite character what was your most memorable rp moment, detail it, and why what is your favorite song rn, and on a homo scale 1-10 what am i

what alex said i could ask you one of two things whats your favorite thing to discuss at chad club whats your favorite anime you brain will say one but your heart will say another you must decide

Name: SquakHawk Gender Identity: prefer not to say How much anime do you watch: ? lets just say we can kirunokage hinata on a sunday Are you an epic gamer: rofl. Yes. Please write a 3 paragraph essay explaining why you are a disappointment to your parents: I can do three paragraphs in one I have a 12th grade reading level and I’m only ten. Nice try though. (Dms open for ANYTHING) What mental maturity do you possess? (Hint: Too much mental maturity = application denied ?? I like to think of myself as ahead of my time. I think of all video game characters im the closest to Heavy from Team Fortress Two. Too calculated, too precise, let’s just say- if it were my way, World War Two would’ve had a different ending. MCR for life.

Anethra Uradir thought to herself, smug in reading the news. ”Some would say them putting their swords to hoes would serve them well- for they are mad.”

i’m agreeing with you and adding on my opinion
