Scarce Metal

== Overview ==
Scarce Metal is a material discovered in the late Pulsekaw Era by Couqio. Its name is ironic to the actual state of the metal, which was anything but scarce. As a matter of fact, the Pulsekaw had mined and stored so much of it, there was hardly anything that hadn't seen a touch of the metal in its production within two decades of its discovery. The Pulsekaw were in the midst of a rather sudden cultural revolution due to this discovery, before The Soaring of Akkaz ended the era completely.
Scarce Metal is an incredibly sturdy, malleable, plentiful, and well-researched material. It is likely that a widely-known Pulse was used to more easily mine, or forge the metal in efficient ways only the Pulsekaw knew.
== Notes ==
* Due to the massive amount of Scarce Metal available, it was used in very elementary ways (even some unethical ways as well) just as a means to find use for it.
*A crazed Deid, overloaded with the Scarce Metal, was tasked to use it on living Pulsekaw in an attempt to potentially recreate entire bodies made out of the material, instead of flesh and bone. These experiments and subsequent torture took place on Katharh Island.
*Scarce Metal particles so small that they can be inhaled are generally not dangerous to most living beings. However, when they cling to plantlife, it often wilts them within moments of being exposed. This is likely due to the particles' perfect spread over the integrity of a plant's stem completely breaking down the structure with little resistance. Tests were done on a Human spine to see if the results were similar. While damage to the spine indeed occurred, it wasn't nearly as anathema as it was to plantlife. (Raw chunks or bars of scarce do not wilt plantlife at all.)
