Felforr

Felforr is a fictional mineral and alloy commonly used in fantasy fiction, role-playing games, and worldbuilding. In most depictions, felforr appears as a dense, glassy metal with a faint ember-red sheen that glows softly in darkness. It is typically associated with volcanic regions or hydrothermal vents and is said to crystallize in geode-like formations beneath the earth’s crust. Its fictional properties include a very high melting point, extreme hardness, and an ability to conduct magical energy when tempered under specific conditions.

Etymology and naming conventions for felforr are not standardized across settings. The term is generally considered a constructed word rather than a term with a single canonical origin, and some works spell it differently to suit regional linguistic styles.

In-world uses and mechanics: Felforr is prized for equipment that resists corrosion and holds a sharp edge, making it popular for swords, axes, and armor. When forged and tempered with precise rituals or spellwork, felforr is believed to fuse with enchantments or runes, granting weapons or armor properties such as enhanced durability, heat resistance, or light emission. In gaming contexts, felforr items often confer bonuses to mining, smithing, or magic-related abilities, or unlock unique effects.

Occurrence and value: In fictional economies, felforr is rare and valuable, harvested from deep basalt chambers or geothermal deposits. It may be guarded by factions, sought after by smiths and mages, and used as a plot device to motivate quests or conflicts.
