Amarnium
This is a very rare metal created from a silver-like ore. It is light but strong, and after being forged can rarely be destroyed. It takes a master smith to even begin to make the most basic items with this metal, and very few can forge it into weapons and armor. Elves and Dwarves, having learned smithing long ago from the gods, are more adept with this metal. It is a satin silver color, but can be polished to a super high gloss.
* Amarnium does not affect spellcasting as iron or steel does. A spellcaster can be touching or carrying amarnium and not be damaged during magic use. Normal armor restrictions do apply.
