===[[Adamant|Adamantium]]===

Also known as '''Adamantium''' and '''Adamantine'''. Toughest pure metal in Innworld. Appears deep red with fiery orange, may shift color depending on how light hits it,<ref name=":6" /> and is naturally dull unless polished. Heavier than steel.<ref name=":0" /> It does not rust or decay.<ref name=":6" />

Smithing it is a true sign of mastery<ref name=":0" />, and [Smiths] fight over Artifacts that will allow them work it. When being taught how to forge Adamantium, it is traditional for [Smiths] to forge a bit of it, and then toss it into magma. If it is whole when retrieved, that means it was forged correctly.<ref name=":3" />

It is rarer than diamonds, not hard until it has been processed, and easy to miss while mining. Thus, it is sometimes mistaken for a weak mineral or clay even when it is found.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/05/07/6-14-k/ Chapter 6.14 K]</ref>
