Ruacuprum
An awakened metal: ruacuprum, a.k.a. "true copper" or "flaming metal" is copper that has been enhanced by alchemy.
Properties
Material Characteristics
In appearance it resembles pure copper, but with an iridescent reflectivity that slightly intensifies the magnitude of any light shined upon it. Its properties are otherwise similar to copper
Physical & Chemical Properties
Absorbs and reflects all heat and electricity. It cannot melt or sublimate, though it can be modified by force. It is sufficiently strong to be sometimes used as a base for weapons or armor or construction features which are not load bearing, but is also frequently used as a decorative inset.
Geology & Geography
Is mined in great quantities within the Crowning Ranges, and is put to considerable use within the region as a way of compounding heat.
Life & Expiration
Like mundane copper, can oxidize to verdigris, which, if allowed to encase a piece of the material, will cause it to revert to its mundane form.
