Metals

Metals are a very important part of the RPG. Everything revolves around metals, especially items. Weapons and Armor are made of these metals and the strength and characteristics of the metal determine what is stronger. All Metals are based on a hardness scale from 1-10. If the metals are only one apart on the scale a fight between the two would not make one stronger then the other. If the Metals are 2 or 3 apart on the scale, long exposer to clashing against each other will eventually break the weaker one. If the Metals are 4 apart then over the course of a battle the weaker one will break. 5 will only take a few hits and much more then that will easily break the weaker weapon. Also, metals can be tempered by smiths and the two hardnesses of the metals will be averaged to find the hardness. Each weapon or armor can be tempered 3 times maximum.
