Soarium
From House of Hozz
Soarium is a metal prized by the Zarth. It allows the creation of large flying structures. Flying fortresses!
The idea
I wanted some way for the Zarth to have unique flying structures. The Fay mostly use Sky Vines and Solid-clouds, but I wanted something a bit different for the Zarth. Ziggy 23:57, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
How does it work?
- It is anti-gravity, so it works like a helium balloon in cartoons. Would be easy to refine, but perhaps hard to find.
- It converts torque into force, so it's like a totally mechanical rocket engine. This would also allow interesting rocket-pack like creations, as well as thrusters for vehichles, boring machines, and submarines. This might be a little too useful though.
- Like 1, but the effect is controlled by temperature. The hotter it is, the more lift it provides. Like a hot air balloon.
- Like 2, but it requires angular velocity. The faster you spin it, the more thrust it provides. Like a fan, but it wouldn't need anything to blow.
