Infernal Material
Infernal material refers to any material that is from the realm of demons, fiends and all manner of evil and twisted beings, the Plutonium Realm.
Just as its cousin, celestial material, it can be any number of materials from this realm. The more useful the material is, the higher the quality of the item that can be made from it. It also has a direct effect on its cost.

History & Usage
Everyday use
Infernal material is most commonly used in the creation of dark relics with dark purposes. Infernal material capable of being forged into weapons and armour is not as commonly found and is most likely traded to the most vile of the material plane with heavy pricetags, to include future "favors."
Cultural Significance and Usage
Infernal material is despised by Kohlir and her followers. They keep their senses open in order to detect its corruption in their day to day activities. Any that is found is immediately given to The Sacred Grove for removal.
Hazards
It is said, that over time, objects of infernal material will corrupt the person using it. Those who use infernal material in their creations are incredibly sensitive to this hazard, as the act of creation opens areas of the mind that are not typically open.
Environmental Impact
Infernal material left in nature can corrupt the surrounding area over time, warping and twisting it into a mockery of itself and creating a haven for beings from the Plutonium Realm.
Distribution

Law & Regulation
