Maroonan Metals

## Overview

The Precious and very rare (for Earth) metals from the far off planet of Maroona. These are extremely versatile and useful material for use of any sort.

Earth has knowledge of three of these metal types,

Maroonan Steel (with an aluminium subset, MnA), MnS

Maroonan Gold, MnG

Maroonan Midnight Iron, MnI

## Biography

Due to Maroona's harsh climate, and even harsher conditions under the surface, the metals of the planet have been pushed to their furthest limits, causing pure, and strong Metalloids of all sorts to reward those committed enough to find them.

The finding of Maroonan Iron was simple, with it being harvested from cave systems like honey from a beehive. It's abundant and easy to manipulate, causing it's lightweight and malleable little brother, dubbed "Maroonan Aluminium".

Maroonan Gold is a bit different from the other metals, but not too different from Earth's. It is much stronger than Earthly gold, and its shimmer is much more noticeable. This is the rarest Maroonan material, as the only pieces of it came from the mostly destroyed accents of The Red Head.

Maroonan Midnight Iron is the rarest of all metals from the planet, even Maroona itself. It is found near the core of the planet, about 1900 miles under, where the hollow points are reached. It was kept a large secret for most of its history, until the most recent Ruler of Maroona shut down any and all secrets from his people (safe for his Son of course). It is THE most durable, destructive, and difficult to obtain metal in the entire planet, but that didn't stop the Father from using it in his new, black-as-night suit of terrifying armor.

## Uses

Regular Maroonan steels are often used for the construction of many things needed in order to stay technologically and physically advanced in Maroona. Its balanced properties make it great for weaponry, armor, spacecraft & other artillery, and many other quality-of-life items/objects. It's "subspecies", Maroonan Aluminium, is used more sparingly, as it's a bit more difficult to create. This is no cost however, as it is put to good use, also usually being found on spacecraft & armor most often.

Some special cases of its uses are:

* The Red Head is almost entirely made of a variation of the two metals.
* The Phoenix's suit (at least the metallic parts) is a mix of Steel and Aluminium, combining to make a sturdy, but light jetpack and wing combo, perfect for flying away quickly from traumatized teenagers.
* Maroonan Soldier Gear is 100% Maroonan Steel, and has been since they began space exploration. The metal is so reliable in fact, that there has only been one redesing of the armor in the several century timespan of their combat gear.
* Deadlox's genetics call for the keratin he would normally grow to be replaced by Maroonan Steel, making him even deadlier.

Maroonan Gold is not used for much other than decoration. It's fantastic glow is like no other on Earth, apart from a certain shine-savvy mayor.

Some special cases of its uses are:

* A golden Crucifix made by Spiral as a gift to Gabriel for Christmas
* A big chunk of it is framed in Arcaedo's office
* The Red Head once again uses it in its accents, specifically the horns and teeth on the outside.

Maroonan Midnight Iron hasn't been used in anything but the Father's armor, seeing as it is too dangerous to get and supposedly too scarce to supply to an Army the size of a planet.
