Darksteel

Darksteel is silvery in hue when polished or

cut, but its exposed surfaces have a deep, gleaming purple

luster. The process for making this type of steel was once

lost, but has been recently rediscovered thanks to some ancient

dwarven texts. The alloy is made from meteoric iron

tempered with a variety of special oils.

Armor made from darksteel grants acid resistance 2.

Weapons forged of darksteel inflict +1 point of electricity

damage each time they hit (this is cumulative with other

abilities, such as shock or shocking burst). Items not primarily

of metal are not meaningfully affected. (A longsword

or a suit of chainmail is affected, while a spear or a

suit of studded leather is not.)

Darksteel weighs the same as steel, has hardness 10, and

has 30 hit points per inch of thickness.
