Orichalcum

Orichalcum is a forest-green- to jade-colored metal near equivalent in durability to iron yet lighter, but known most for its magic repeling properties. It it used extensively to armor soldiers meant to attack magi on the battlefield and for guards that are guarding magi. Mage prisons are lined with orichalcum bars to make them more secure against their occupants. Orichalcum is highly reactant with magic, causing a burning sensation to magicent flesh. A mixture of orichalcum powder, saltpeter, and mage's blood is used to make a magically incendiary device.
It is the only hard metal that has an affinity with water. It does not rust.
