The Manaverse Periodic Table is an extension to the "standard" Periodic Table. It catalogues chemical elements that exist beyond the realm of physics, with atoms partially or completely sustained by anomalous or metaphysical means, commonly in the form of stray or exotic metaparticles (such as magitrons or aetherons) assuming or replacing the function of atomic particles. As a result, these elements often possess metaphysical properties that are independent from their chemical properties, but still behave like ordinary matter in most circumstances.

Metals

Adamantium

Adamantium (Chemical Symbol: Ad) is [...]

Laconia

Laconia (Chemical Symbol: Lc) is a magically-inert transition metal. In its purest form, it indiscriminately rejects nearly all Magic Functions directly or indirectly applied to it, and as such, it is often classified as a "metaphysically-noble" substance. It is a highly-valuable asset for magitech constructs and weaponry, as it can be used to conduct Mana or a Spell through a system with absolutely no loss of efficiency, or to create Laconia-alloyed weaponry with high resistance to Magic. The color of Laconia, as well as its degree of "nobleness" towards Magic, depends on the degree of refinement it has been subject to, with clarity increasing proportionally to its quality, or "grade". On an unrefined state, Laconia is an ashen metal with little reflectiveness, while Laconia of the highest grade possesses a uniquely white and lustrous color.

Laconia is very rare in the known Manaverse, but is known to occur prominently in Phantasia. Other terrestrial worlds often contain negligible amounts of the element, if not entirely lacking it.

Mythril

Mythril (Chemical Symbol: My) is a light but strong transition metal, naturally silver with a blue tint. Though it can occur in ore veins, it is also found in the scales of Euthoran dragons. Mythril has particularly high Mana retention, allowing one to "charge" weaponry or armor made from it or use them as an extra Mana pool.

Mythril is malleable and ductile, but still hard enough to form high-grade armor, particularly when alloyed. It is slightly less conductive than copper. It has a melting point of roughly 2200°F and does not tarnish easily.

Though it occurs naturally in the scales of dragons on Euthora, Mythril is a fairly rare metal in terms of mining.

Orichalcum

Orichalcum (Chemical Symbol: Or) is a bronze-colored transition metal. Strong, hard, and difficult to shape, Orichalcum has very low malleability and ductility. It is especially heat-resistant, with a melting point of roughly 3100°F. When tarnished, it gains a dark green hue.

It is fairly common on Euthora, both through ore mines and occurring naturally in the scales of some dragons, particularly Firedrakes and Pyrespines. The presence of Orichalcum in these dragons' scales allows them to withstand the heat of lava.

It is possible to chemically recreate Orichalcum with certain alloys of bronze, however these imitations do not have the same level of heat resistance that Orichalcum does.

Vibranium

Vibranium (Chemical Symbol: Vi) is [...]

Zeraphium

Zeraphium (Chemical Symbol: Ze) is a hypermetal. It is a highly-condensed substance due to its compressed atomic structure, giving it an exceptionally high density. [...]

Metalloids

Tephralite

Tephralite (Chemical Symbol: Tp) is a metalloid that naturally occurs on some sea creatures and is most commonly found on Euthora. It cuts through water without resistance as if it was air, but decays quickly and seems to burn when out of the water. It is naturally a deep, glassy blue, but turns bright orange and dark brown when it begins to decay.

Though the most reliable sources of Tephralite are creatures that produce it naturally, it can sometimes be found forming in coral-like growths in oceanic trenches.

Nonmetals

Gyakunite

Gyakunite (Chemical Symbol: Gy) is [...]

Saezerite

Saezerite (Chemical Symbol: Sz) is [...]
