[QUOTE="garrowolf, post: 5240151, member: 31900"] Hey they just mentioned Cavorite on Warehouse 13! This is what I have so far: [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2] Exotic Materials are natural materials that only occur in worlds with mana. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2][B]Cavorite[/B] – Cavorite is easy to find in it's natural state in large amounts as it will cause the section of earth it is in to float. These floating islands can be mined for cavorite and used in many technologies. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2] The effects of cavorite depend on how much of cavorite you have versus the weight. A small amount for an object will just lower the weight. A balenced amount will allow it to fly and land given another driving force like propellers. A heavy amount will keep it in the sky forever. In it's natural state you can't use cavorite to go higher then a few miles above the earth. However later tech levels have discovered greater abilities. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2] In settings rich with Cavorite, entire civilizations live amoung the clouds. Usually only small rocks are mined and the larger ones are used as places to live. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2] Airships become an early technology to use cavorite.

[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2]Mithril – Earth magical metal[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2]Ember – Fire based material that can be used to heat a camp or with bellows it could run a steam engine. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2]Naquada – Shift enhancing material [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2][B]Naiads[/B] – Naiads are a creature that floats along the coasts and look similar to sponges wrapped in jelly.

[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2] Hearth Stones can be used by someone with Abjuration as a foci. Several of them can be used to contain a very powerful spirit. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][SIZE=2]Orichalcum – Useful for enchanting objects. [/SIZE][/FONT] Now I need one for Air/Storm (not lightning based - I have another idea for that one), Astral, Necromancy, Shadow, Transfiguration, Transmutation, and Life. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
