# Overview Mithral is notoriously difficult for traditional smiths to manipulate, as it defies conventional forging. It does not respond to the crude force of the hammer or the blunt intensity of typical fires. Instead, it must be "shaped" through harmonic resonance—utilizing precise, rhythmic tonal vibrations or prolonged exposure to arcane light—o coax the metal into form. Because of its nature as a living alloy, Mithral gear is often grown or grafted rather than hammered, resulting in impossibly thin, graceful designs that seamlessly adapt to the wearer. <br> # Properties - **Magical Conductance:** Mithral acts as a bridge between the physical and the metaphysical. It does not merely resist magic; it channels and enhances it, making it the preferred material for items of high precision and arcane focus. - **Structural Translucence:** Despite its strength, Mithral is effectively weightless. It is renowned for its ability to phase slightly between states of existence, allowing for armor that feels like silk or blades that strike with the speed of thought.
