Korè

Korè is a continent in the world of Amalgamaria.

Officially a monarchy, the land is actually ruled by the many Corporations and Trade groups established in Koré. The leaders of the nine largest Corporation, along with the king of Koré, or “Kaiser”, are the De facto rulers of the land. They are known as “The Ten Traders”.

It's undeniably the most technologically and Magically advanced continent in Amalgamaria.

## Geography

A large island, at the center of Amalgamaria. Huge mountain in the center of the island called Merxes, which can be viewed from other continents if the weather conditions are right. Mainly forested, everything north of Merxes is covered in snow. Towards the east, there is an area partially in the forest and partially on the mountain that always rains due to a magical experiment gone awry. There are ports all around the island, and there is a huge trade city on top of the mountain.

## Palladium

Palladium is an enchanted metal only found in the Mountain City, Merxes, on Kore. In addition to being very light, Palladium has two states: Magik'd and dry. In it's Magik'd state, it resembles glass with a strong prismatic sheen and glow. It can be used as a fuel source and to power spells and arcane devices. due to its metallic nature it can also be forged into powerful weapons . Dry palladium still retains a slight prismatic quality, but with no glow. It can still be forged and it can absorb and be infused with magik easily. All weapons forged with Palladium are strikingly beautiful, resembling glass, and all naturally have a +1 enhancement bonus. Also, they can be enchanted more easily, allowing a -5 DC to enchant them.

What must be remembered is that Palladium is extremely rare, and can only be acquired in Kore by either the Corporations at an exorbitant cost, or from the Kaiser himself (the main supplier of all Palladium to the world). Palladium can be used in place of a material spell component when Magik'd.

Weapons fashioned from Palladium have a natural ability to bypass hardness when sundering weapons or attacking objects, ignoring hardness less than 20.

Unfortunately, Palladium is currently impossible to obtain on Reloria.
