Fauzite

Found in most of Northern Vestya and Ostad, Fauzite is an ore with a touch as cold as ice and a glassy texture. It is considered very valuable by most in Saulis and can be used to make weapons and armor. Many great blacksmiths believe it to be a "special" ore and to be used in only the best of pieces.

Appearance
Fauzite resembles ice with a faint blue glow. It is cold to the touch and large amounts might have steam rising from it. Occasionally, it will be almost completely see-through and the faint glow will be replaced by a bright shine that seems to come out of nowhere.

Weapons
When creating a weapon out of Fauzite, one must remember that the blade mustn't be too thin, or it will crack. Fauzite is considered a metal that only experienced blacksmiths can create. The procedure to create a weapon is long and frustrating, taking much more effort than a normal weapon of steel or iron. First, you would take the amount of Fauzite you would need for the weapon you are crafting and run it through hot water. This will soften the metal for about an hour. Take this time to carve and shape the tool to your content. Remember to keep the blade sturdy, or it will break in combat. After you feel as if the weapon is finished, let it regain it's cold texture and test the weapon. If the weapon doesn't break while testing, it is fit to use in combat. Fauzite arrows are by hard the hardest weapons to craft out of the ore.

Armor
While creating Fauzite armor is expensive and time consuming, it doesn't hurt to have a pair of cold-resistant boots. To craft a set of Fauzite armor, you must first create a small outline to build upon out of iron. Then, run the Fauzite you have under hot water and form it around the iron outline. Once it is completely covered on the outside, wait until the Fauzite has cooled again.
