Prohibiting Metal

Prohibiting metal is the most valuable material known to Humankind. From any meaningful perspective it is just standard alloy forged from Moon metal deposits. But it is fully inert to paraphysic technologies and in large quantities can entirely block them. Many scientists believes that human inability to use paraphysic technologies is caused by evolution near the immense deposits of this pressure but unexplainable matter.

Physical & Chemical Properties

The main property of Prohibiting metal is its ability to disturb paraphysical technologies in all other regards it's standard stainless steel

Geology & Geography

The only none source of material is Moon. Millions of systems were explored but no one have contained material with properties even close to Prohibiting metal. At this point of history its reserves are fully depleted as Moon is fully dismantled and almost all of its matter is already used.

History & Usage

History

It's not a secret that life on earth would be impossible without Moon. But nothing can last forever. Era of biological life has come to an end. Moon fulfilled its duty. Life has surpassed boundaries of natural selection and are ready to seed itself across the stars.   Grateful Humankind couldn't let the moon end up as pointless sphere of raw matter. It decided: "If It made possible life on earth, it should continue its duty and help populate all reachable space. How? As raw material for first interstellar fleet." Five years later Fleet was constructed and started its first journey. Hidden potential of moon matter was yet to be uncovered.   With time fleet numbers was drastically increased while ships of first wave became outdated. But moon duty continued. Old spacecrafts were melted and reforged as new soldiers, weapons, incrustation to new ships interior, or just pieces of art placed on the postaments inside the vessels command centers. This played its role when humanity first time in its recorded history clashed with other stellar empire.   Technologies of this squishy creatures inhabiting newly discovered empire was indistinguishable from magic clearly broke the rules of known physic. But observation has shown that this technologies wasn't able to affect or even work properly near the matter of first earth satellite. This unusual property gave to alloy its name - Prohibiting metal. What was even more surprising captured examples of this technologies were not working in human hands with or without prohibiting metal nearby. To understand this captured machineries were methodically analyzed through any meaningful scans, even several alien scientist was abducted to get math standing behind this marvels.    The result was unexpected by any cost. Math was full of mistakes and contradictions on pretty core level, of course they weren't obvious and their discover has demanded hellish efforts from human scientists but still. Math made no sense. In addition even with wrong math assumed construction of alien gadgets with no doubts couldn't produce observed effects. Humanity Went into asymmetrical situation where only hope was reproduction of Prohibiting metal effect. Best minds have spent decades and even centuries trying to solve this issue. Noone Have succeeded.

Cultural Significance and Usage

Even at this point of time millennium ago question is unanswered and humanity has no explanation, Prohibiting metal just works. This made it the most valuable material known for humanity. As a result Humankind militia is ready to sacrifice armies on recovery missions even if only several tons of this invaluable substance were lost as this is to this day the only way to absolutely nullify enemies unexplainable devises.

Environmental Impact

Preservation of causality and relativity.

Reusability & Recycling

every broken object made from prohibiting metal is either fixed or scraped for material with minimal losses.

Distribution

Trade & Market

Rarity and usefulness of material leads to absence of any trades with it.

Storage

Items made of Prohibiting metal are usually stored in vacuum chambers several foots out of any surface levitated by magnetic field

Law & Regulation

Prohibiting metal is divided among all builders of First Fleet and they are free to use it at their own discretion.

Big Leap Position

    By the Year 25 After Covenant Sign (ACS) Ascended humanyty's converted Earth in ecumonopolis of immense complexity. No air, no water, no life. Skies absent of clouds are full of artificial satellites gigantic enough to cover stars from naked eyes. This host of space construction is essential step, leverage and fulcrum which will be used to turn the galaxy in men domain. Factories ready to mass produce armies and fleets. Computational centers whose calculation powers are enough to manage such logistic nightmare as it going to be forthcoming colonization. Power plants producing energy on scale unimaginable for humanity ever before. Only machinery and invisible ocean of constantly flowing thoughts working in synchronicity are filling Old Cradle.    Preparations were finished. Then it was time to pay respect to that who had been shining at night. It's time to dismantle Moon
