Durum

Durum is a metal found deep underground, a metal known for its durability in particular. The metal is said to have the property to be able to turn those to stone who manage to be harmed by its surface, though not encasing them in it. It is said that bones fuse within the body depending on the severity of the hit and that natural healing from these injuries will further inhibit movement from this who are struck by it. This metal is found deep within the Deep Run and is incredibly difficult to find as it often resembles the stone around it.

Special

• The metal when striking the surface of an opponent's flesh, is known to lock up the joint if blood contact is made with the metal. This metal also inhibits natural healing to be done on the area.
• The metal's wounds can be cured through divine, magical, or other means, however when the area is healed, it causes the extremity to fall off permanently with no recourse. This stops the pain, but prevents the use of this healing. Alchemical healing however may still be used. For example, if the forearm is struck and broken with the metal, it will cause great pain and the wound will not heal. If it is attempted to be healed through super natural means, the forearm will merely fall off and become a stub.
