Antimetal

Properties

Material Characteristics

Antimetal is a special type of rocky material that looks identical to iron ore as it naturally occurs, but takes on a light blueish hue when smelted. Rarely, a form of it appears to be purple and crystalline.

Physical & Chemical Properties

Antimetals namesake comes from its unique properties. When smelted, a chemical reaction occurs within the metal, altering its composition. This new composition radiates a field similar to a magnetic field. When metals come within range of this field, the bonds between their molecular structure weakens, giving most metals the consistency of butter.
A rare purple crystalline form acts similar to this, in that it constantly gives off a field that strongly disorients and disrupts manipulation of universal energy, effectively dispelling all effects of such manipulation, called “magic” as a slang term by most.

Life & Expiration

Over long periods of time, the fields given off by the materials can weaken or shrink in size, but almost never disappear completely.
