SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Shock-Hardened Matrix – Kov'dra's crystalline structure compresses under impact instead of fracturing, allowing it to resist shattering even under repeated heavy strikes.
  • Thermal Saturation Resistance – Capable of withstanding extreme heat and cold without becoming brittle or weakened, including sudden thermal shifts (e.g., plasma to cryo exposure).
  • Resonance Dampening – Naturally deadens vibrations, reducing the transfer of concussive force to the wielder and muffling sound when struck, making it effective for stealthier applications.
  • Refraction Layering – Kov'dra disperses directed energy across its surface, creating a visible shimmering effect as blaster fire or plasma weapons lose their focus and burn themselves out.
  • Anti-Spalling Property – When struck by high-velocity impacts (slugthrowers, railguns), Kov'dra does not fracture or shed shards internally, preventing secondary injuries to the wearer.
  • Vacuum-Stable Alloy – Remains stable and structurally perfect when exposed to the vacuum of space for indefinite periods, without requiring protective treatments.
  • Magnetic Inertia – Kov'dra does not magnetize easily, making it resistant to magnetic clamps, attraction-based weapons, or environmental hazards that rely on magnetic force.
  • Forged Grain-Locking – Once hammered and cooled, Kov'dra "locks" into its hardened grain pattern. Attempts to reforge or melt it without specialized methods will fail, preventing recycling by enemies.

STRENGTHS
  • Enhanced Force Resistance: Nearly immune to Force manipulation—telekinesis cannot grip it, Force lightning disperses, and alchemy or imbuement struggles to alter its structure.
  • Lightsaber Durability: Withstands plasma-based weaponry, making it ideal for melee weapons and armor designed to engage lightsaber-wielding opponents.
  • Superior Kinetic Protection: Absorbs and disperses kinetic energy, minimizing the impact of physical attacks, whether from blunt weapons, high-velocity projectiles, or shockwaves.
  • Long-Lasting Craftsmanship: Weapons and armor made from Kov'dra remain effective for centuries, making them heirlooms of great value.
  • Environmental Resilience: Naturally resistant to the harshest conditions, including deep space exposure, extreme cold, and high-energy impacts.
  • Precognition Breaker: Combatants relying on foresight (Battle Precognition, Force visions, combat sensing) suffer disrupted clarity when facing Deep Core Kov'dra wielders.
  • Lightsaber Resilient: Withstands prolonged contact with lightsabers and plasma-based weaponry without melting, warping, or losing integrity.
  • Kinetic Fortress: Absorbs and disperses the force of blunt weapons, projectiles, and concussive blasts with extreme efficiency.
  • Energy Resistant: Highly effective against blasters and directed energy weapons; surface naturally disperses plasma and bolt impacts.
  • Electrical Immunity: Strong resistance to electricity and ionized shocks, allowing reliable performance in hostile environments.
  • Shock-Hardened Alloy: Naturally compresses under repeated impact instead of fracturing, making it extremely difficult to crack or shatter.
  • Thermal Stability: Endures extreme heat, cold, and sudden temperature shifts without becoming brittle or weakened.
  • Longevity: Does not corrode, rust, or degrade; weapons and armor remain pristine for centuries, often becoming heirlooms.
  • Vacuum & Environment Proof: Resistant to deep space exposure, void conditions, and other environmental extremes without protective treatment.
  • Resonance Dampening: Suppresses vibrations and concussive transfer, protecting the wearer from secondary shock damage.

WEAKNESSES
  • Difficult Forging Process: Requires specialized forges and extreme heat to shape. Few smiths possess the knowledge or tools to work it properly.
  • Repair Difficulty: Once forged and grain-locked, Kov'dra is nearly impossible to repair or reforge in the field. Damaged pieces often need full re-smelting in specialized forges.
  • Grain Memory Lock: Once forged, the crystalline pattern is locked permanently. Any imperfection during the original forging process becomes permanent, leaving flaws that can't be corrected later. meaning the entire piece being worked on needs to be reforged to correct the imperfection
  • Non-Adaptive Material: Once shaped, Kov'dra cannot be retooled or modified easily. Each weapon or armor set is "final form" — customization requires starting from scratch.
  • Thermal Conduction: Kov'dra resists damage from heat, but it also conducts and holds temperature longer than most alloys. A Kov'dra surface struck by plasma or fire remains dangerously hot to touch.
  • Limited Alloy Blending: Kov'dra does not combine well with other metals — attempts to alloy it usually ruin its grain-locking structure. This prevents hybridization for specialized properties.

DESCRIPTION
Deep Core Kov'dra is the rarest and most potent form of the ancient Kiev'arian alloy, drawn not from surface veins but from concentrated pockets buried deep within the fractured mantle of Kiev'ara. Where ordinary Kov'dra is formidable, Deep Core is something altogether different—dense beyond reason, unnervingly resonant, and five times stronger in every measure. Its scarcity and difficulty of extraction ensure that only a handful of relics exist, each considered sacred by the Lilaste Order

when all life died on Kiev'ara the cataclysm crushed its Force nexus into the world's core. warping into the dead presense it became today. In these rare seams, the Force residue compressed into the metal itself, permanently altering its nature. Deep Core Kov'dra radiates an oppressive presence to Force-sensitives, its hum and resonance disrupting both concentration and precognition. Jedi who try to foresee its wielder's moves find their visions distorted and unreliable, while Sith sorcery and alchemy struggle to take hold of the alloy at all.

In physical terms, Deep Core Kov'dra is unmatched. It is impervious to lightsabers, disperses blaster fire with minimal effect, and absorbs kinetic impacts that would shatter lesser alloys. The metal is void-hardened and eternal; it does not corrode, warp, or weaken under any natural or artificial condition, enduring even the stresses of deep space and temporal anomalies. Armor and weapons forged from it are virtually indestructible, capable of lasting millennia without degradation.

Thank you! Here, you still mention extreme resistance, I'd like to ask you to edit/reword it:
Extreme Environmental Resilience – Naturally resistant to the harshest conditions, including deep space exposure, extreme cold, and high-energy impacts.
And in the weaknesses you mention it is a rare material, but the Mass production not reflect this. I'd like to ask you (reccomend) to modify the production to Limited. The limited reflects the most what you wrote in the sub about the material (the Force resistance, Etheric Residue, Disrupts Force Precognition, Rare and Hard to Acquire and Limited Production).

MANIAC MANIAC was hoping for minor or mass produced, any segments i can change to reflect that specifically? i mostly did this between breaks at work so i inherently apologise for these blatent mistakes and counter intuitive wordings. i must have changed my mind several times about htis metal in the process of its making lol

It is not a problem :) If you delete the limited weakness, and this part:
Disrupts Force Precognition – Creates an unnatural resistance to Force-users' battle instincts, making it harder for them to predict and react to incoming strikes.
in that case it can be Minor or Mass.

Thank you for that. Please reduce the submission to semi-unique.

Please understand that this submission has been pulled for re-review due to being abused. This is not a conversation as a standard review would be. Either make the changes I've asked for or I will archive the submission.
alright since i have subs at minor and mass production already using this material at minor and mass produced. ill provide the links below so they can get pulled to be fixed.

ill make some changes and change the submission to better fit the semi unique rating and quality


i am most likely going to be remaking this material with the proper fix's and having another variation at mass produced as it suits my purposes that way. as a factory judge is there any suggestions you can give me that can help prevent this i the future?


submissions using this material at minor or mass produced goes as follows.
