===[[Mithril]]===

Extremely lightweight and tough metal. Has a gleaming white-silver appearance, and doesn't age like other metals.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/04/26/7-19/ Chapter 7.19]</ref> Alloys gain a green tinge over thousands of years.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/07/30/interlude-mundanity-and-memorials/ Interlude - Mundanity and Memorials]</ref>

Because of its lightness, it's good for lightweight armour but bad for weapons as it will have no weight behind its blows, and a composite metal is preferable. While stronger than steel, it is also more malleable and needs to be cut with a stronger alloy.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/12/4-45/ Chapter 4.45]</ref> It requires less heat to smith than titanium.<ref name=":7">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/06/08/9-44-p/ Chapter 9.44 P]</ref>
