Trivia

• Darksteel is a fictional metal in a number of fantasy story settings. It is sometimes described as a metal alloy with great durability to the point of being nearly indestructible, but difficult to forge armor and weapons with due to said durable nature.
• Primordium is, in real life, a medical term defined as an organ, structure, or tissue in the earliest stage of development. As an ingredient in crafting Darksteel, this implies a magical or living quality that makes platinum useful for the forging of armor and weapons.
