- Model: Phrik A
- Modularity: It's an element, so no, you can use it to make alloys, but otherwise no.
- Production: Minor
- Material: It's an artificially generated element
- Classification: Metal
- Weight: Light
- Color: Silver
- Resistances:
- Energy (And other Blaster type weapons): Extreme
- Kinetic: Extreme
- Lightsabers: Extreme
- Corrosion/Acid: Extreme
- Thermal (Heat/Cold): None - The material will survive, you won't
- EMP/Ion: None
- Radiation: None - Again, material will survive, you won't
- Sonic: None - See Radiation and Thermal
- Other: Average
- Metal is extremely hard and durable like naturally forming phrik.
- Once the metal is shaped into its form for whatever it's being used for it takes a ridiculous amount of force or energy, or heat to actually bend the metal or get it to break the shape of the metal.
- Is more available than naturally occurring phrik, however is also 15% heavier.
- Extremely hard and durable - You will not, without a significant amount of effort and energy and time, break this metal. Once it is shaped into what it's intended to be, it is extremely hard to break, period. It doesn't matter if you hit it with a blaster, a disruptor, a ballistic weapon, acid or even a bloody lightsaber this material will not break, at all. This metal is so utterly absurd in the level of energy you need to actually break it that you need to oversize whatever it is that you are trying to use to break said metal to several orders of magnitude higher than what you are aiming at.
- This metal doesn't absorb or dissipate any energy - So note one thing about this metal in its strength is its hardness and extreme difficulty in breaking the bonds of this metal even on a molecular level. While that is true it gives this metal its one massive weakness, in that it doesn't absorb, dissipate or otherwise mitigate attacks where radiation, Ion/EMP, protection against heat and cold, or even sound waves pass right through this metal. Which means that even though the metal will survive these attacks, you as the person behind the metal where these attacks are coming from, will not. At all. Best to pair it with materials that better mitigate these problems.
One of the many products produced by The Forge of Gods particle accelerator station, this material takes something that is naturally a scarcity throughout the galaxy, and creates something that's almost as good, a little bit heavier, but is also much more plentiful especially in the CIS. This material once made, especially when forged into it's determined shape, is almost physically unbreakable. This material is able to be smashed, blasted, hit with acid or other corrosive effects, even lightsabers and it just goes "meh,". The amount of energy and force you need to generate to actually break this material in relation to how much material is used is utterly absurd. However this comes at a cost. Much like real phrik, while this material is physically nigh unbreakable, it offers no protection against thermal based weapons, Ion/EMP weaponry, radiation, or even attacks based on sonic weaponry. To put it simply, this material will survive whatever you hit it with, but as for the person behind it, that's up for debate. Can you use it to block a lightsaber with a vambrace? Yes. Do you want to hold that block? Frak no, unless you want to cook your arm. This material is hardness incarnate, and while it doesn't stop radiation or other field based attacks, if you need something that will physically stop whatever you throw at it dead in its tracks, this is what you want.
