Ristotine

Ristotine is the basic mineral used in the creation of the Peda, the coin used through the universe. The material Ristotine has some strange properties, with always having a weak point. It gets very hard when alloyed, but even then it retains the weak point. Due to this property, not many items are made out of Ristotine, because people do not want items that break if a weak point is hit. What many fail to realize, is that every other area except for the weakpoint is extremely hardy, even stronger than Flex Rodexon when tempered into proper armor.

History
Ristotine was discovered by the Origin Species on a digging site near the inner crust of Hollowariez. The material was a mystery to them at first, but after working with it for a few months, they found it to be a very powerful material, and harvested it for anything from armors to building supports. After the first building was constructed, some punks whent inside and struck the supports just for kicks, and they discovered the weakpoint by a mistake. They all died by the resulting collapse of the building. This taught the people using it that it had a grueling flaw.

Working with the Metal, Uses and Weaknesses
The metal is highly unused because of it's weakpoint, but when someone works with it they need to smelt it down into a fluid mass. There, it needs to be applied to a mold, since hammering it with regular blacksmith methods does not do much. When in the mold it must be frozen quickly, since if it just slowly rehardens, it has a possibility of spawning more weakpoints. It is used for armor, usually with the weakpoint pointed out, or working with a spacamancer to turn the weakpoint to a spot one would not usually attack.
