SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Isinglass is a clearer, prettier alternative to transparisteel for use in starship viewport windows.
STRENGTHS
  • You (Won't) Pay the Price For Your Lack of Vision: Because isinglass provides a much clearer view compared to transparisteel.
  • Spaceproof: Isinglass is primarily designed to be able to withstand the vacuum of space. It also doubles as a resistance to extremes of pressure in general.
  • Insular: Isinglass is quite resistant to heat and radiation.
  • Gothic Aesthetic: Isinglass can be stained to add color and artfully arranged.
WEAKNESSES
  • Alas, I Am Undone: It is very easy for a sorcerer type to undo the alchemization applied to isinglass, causing it to revert back to regular glass... which is not good. Especially not in space.
DESCRIPTION
Isinglass (pronounced "eye zin glass") is an archaic catch-all term used to refer to transparent glass used in windows, which at the time was typically made from mica. It sounds so cool, I just couldn't resist subbing a material with the name.
