Mithril

Mithril is a rare metal renowned for its lightness. Large mithril deposits are found in the Blackcaps of northern Breland.

Commentary[]

Mithril is used in making Warforged and armor items. It's possible to have a mithril sword, for instance. Because the material is bendable, it's mostly used for armor. Mithril ore appeared as a silver-and-black mineral in its natural form, and became a shining silvery-blue when it was forged.

Mithril was produced through a process similar to that of steel-smelting.

Properties[]

Whenever a magical spell or spell-like ability struck an item forged from mithril the results were somewhat unpredictable. Seemingly half the time this occurred, the individual in possession of the mithril item became partially and temporarily protected from magic's harmful effects.
