Varkest is a Celestial Element native to Lethurîa, often described as star-forged iron. It is an impossibly durable, hyper-adaptable metal with properties far beyond those of mundane metallurgy.

Physical Characteristics

  • Lighter than lithium
  • Ten times harder than diamond
  • Impervious to stellar-core heat
  • Capable of shifting between rigid, flexible, plastic, or elastic phases
  • Immune to corrosion, decay, and material fatigue

Varkest can be forged or reshaped through dream-based technologies or high-tier alchemy. It retains a form of “memory,” allowing it to return to previous configurations when activated.

Location

Varkest is buried in the deepest terrestrial planetary cores of Lethurîa, intentionally hidden by the First-Flames.

Uses

  • Indestructible armor
  • Celestial weaponry
  • High-stress architecture
  • Dream-reactive machinery
