Ixanian blacksteel is the name given to a type of steel produced in the Honorable Union of Ixania. Unique for its black hue, Ixanian blacksteel is light but extremely durable, currently considered by far the most durable type of steel known to man. While it is widely used throughout Ixania for constructing buildings, military vehicles, and airplanes, it is best known for its use in making the famous Ixanian armors and weapons still worn by Ixanian warriors today thanks to its lightweight and remarkable bulletproofing, one of the reasons Ixania has been and continues to manufacture its ancient armor and weapons for military usage.
