《Two dead men for a bloody coin》Story: Metals, alloys and infusion crystals
Advertisement
While different metals can be tempered to be harder, this study is made to understand and spread the knowledge of metals beyond skilled blacksmiths and jewellers.
Iron
The most common metal for building training weapons. It has an average melting point, is semi hard and generally not a desirable metal. The only redeeming factor for this is the fact that it is an excellent catalyst metal and that it's used for creating steel.
Steel
Technically this would be considered earthen steel. This metal is used for almost any weapons such as rifles, swords, halberds, etc and can be hardened or have variations such as being low in carbon or high in carbon. Other metals can be smelted with it to give it different properties.
Titania
This metal is light, monstrously strong and is corrosion proof, however it lacks the burning effects on demons. it is used for high quality weapons but it is extremely rare as It can only be found on giants' backs in small crystals.
Wolfram / tungsten
Iron infused with fire through extreme heat. It can resist much higer temperatures without warping or changing colors.
Blessed steel
This is iron that is infused with the right amount of every element. It is heat resistant, cold proof, flexible but hard, sharp, causes pain to demons and is the humans' version of mithril. It is imperative to balance the elements correctly or it will go horribly wrong. For this reason it's recipe is allowed only to state approved blacksmiths.
Mithril
The metal of the angels, a light purple metal. It possesses all of the benefits of blessed steel, only much greater. It is a great magic conductor and only angels know how to make it, although it is rumored that it is made from clouds. It is usually sold on spools as that is the maximum size for public distribution of mithril to only the highest class of nobles. Part of the reason it can cut through flesh with ease is that it vibrates constantly.

Infusion elements.
These are elements that can be infused into iron to give it different properties.
Carbon
Earth catalyst. Adds durability and strength to the iron, making it earthen steel or just very commonly referred as steel. Carbon and any variations are very common in nature.
Extreme heat
Though it is not known which part of the process of heating makes infernal steel, it is known that it must be incredibly hot. Adds better heat resistance and higher melting point, however other features remain the same.

Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
