Thirandiocium

Thirandiocium is a fairly rare metal. It is considered to be very valuable by the people of Ethelria, because it has the unique property of burning the skin of frost giants upon contact. The discovery, about four-hundred years ago, of this property changed Thirandiocium from a curios metal of little value to a highly-sought after commodity. It also turned the tide in the struggle of the nations of Ethelria against the frost titans.

Thirandiocium is named after Thirand the Great, who first used it in battle against the frost titans.
