Green-Steel

"Poor lad got his sword stuck in my armor. Got so scared trying to pull it out that he ran away." - Ridgis to Foster

Appearence/Characteristics
Green steel is a very light metal, but it is also very weak, a paper thin sheet of green steel could be broken with a pencil. It's strength comes with its moldability. It chunks off and forms much like very strong clay. Green steel equipment is made of Solid Green steel, sometimes six or seven inches thick. In this quantity it is very heavy and bulky.

In combat it doesnt block swords or arrow but rather the weapons stick into them. Green steel shields are attatched to the soldier's arm with a swivle, disigned so that enemies cn be disarmed when they lose their swords in the shield. It is said that Avagur's armor was littered with twenty swords at the end of the battle for Fan'gayun. after the battles, the green steel is reformed by simply forcing the splits closed.

Weopons cannot be made out of green-steel as they would fall apart.

Green-steel is also a building material, as half of Fan'gayun is built out of the metal, it is melted down and used as a sort of mortar for stone.
