Primordite
Primordial-Iron
External
Primordite is the first physical substance to exist in Altûŕ, original forming the shell of the Primordial Cage from which the universe was birthed. Upon the creation of Altûŕ primordite underwent two distinct changes, with a fraction of it remaining unchanged. The two changes are a result of the cataclysm creating the universe infusing a portion of the primordite with the Cosmic Blood Blood, allowing it to be affected by the Soul Mass which was also infused with the Cosmic Blood. The first change saw some of the infused primordite turning into the fabric of reality, the dust which formed around the divisions in Altûŕ keeping it from collapsing in on itself. The remaining portion of infused primordite was transmuted into all other elements, allowing for the physical universe to form. The fraction of unchanged primordite is what can still be found today.
Properties
Material Characteristics
It is black and resembles obsidian in many ways, with the exception of its metallic shine when polished. Un-processed pieces are often found in the shape of jagged shards.
Physical & Chemical Properties
Due to it being untainted by the Cosmic Blood primordite is to the point that it is completely immune to the effects of magic and highly resistant even to natural forces such as heat, making it an incredibly difficult metal to forge. However, primordite does generate its own magnetic field that can be manipulated through complex means.
Compounds
Due to its unique properties it is impossible to craft alloys from primordite.
Geology & Geography
It is spread out across the entire universe, with deposits on Domus mainly coming from meteorites.
Origin & Source
Most know it only as coming from space.
Life & Expiration
Modern primordite is completely stable remaining unchanged since the beginning of time.
