    You have to be careful if you say things liek carbonadium that implies some relationship to carbon yet it doesn't share many properties with carbon and if carbon is so common does that make carbonadium easy to manufacture what about kryponite is it related to the element krypton is the planet krypton full of the element krypton what does that mean is could you make nukes out of every ounce of dirt or is it all a noble gas well it's not a gaseous planet why would it be named after an element and have none of its properties I am started to believe these people have not thought of this all the way through

      the name carbonadium implies it has things in common with both carbon and vanadium, anon.

    a necessary evil (for people who hate technobabble) to explain wondrous properties of materials that could never exist in real life

    you could make a "realistic" captain america shield out of steel alloys, but unless you invoke artistic liscense, it will never get to the point it can stop a tank shell while also only being a quarter-inch thick at most and also not causing the users arms to turn to jelly from the impact

    The MCU's take on Vibranium overstretched its usages.

    All I can't remember about Nth metal is it is anti-gravity and anti-magic.

      Also gives you some strength.

      And heals you
      and protects you while in space
      and captures souls and causes people to reincarnate
      and works on ghosts
      and opens portals
      and negates teleporting
      and obeys mental commands

      Writers kept making stupid shit up that Nth metal could do throughout the 00s until it did just any fricking thing

    Fictional metals in comics tend to be a bit lame. Too often the writers are either scientifically illiterate, so the already bad physics of the comic is made even weirder by a fictional material, even when they don't make something like nth metal, where it does pretty much whatever the writer feels like at a given time.

    And alloys or composite materias almost ever seem to be a thing, it's almost always an entirely new periodic element.

      >And alloys or composite materias almost ever seem to be a thing
      thats mostly the domain of sci-fi, which at least tries to pretend to be caught up to the science of the times
      resulting in spaceships made of resin bound titanium honeycomb or armor made of shear-thickening liquid crystal sandwiched between ceramic

      though that still ends up unrealistic anyways, just couched in more professional sounding language

        The point is really that the act of creating an entirely new periodic element is supposed to be a far more impressive scientific feat. That, and a new element that otherwise hasn't been found in nature makes it inherently more rare and valuable.

        Making a material an alloy of ordinary elements instead of an entirely new one means it'd be far easier to make more of than whatever scifi/fantasy bullshit was used to create a whole new element.

    But are they as hard as Dragonforce, the hardest metal known to man?

      Dragonforce is for pussies. Manowar would kick their asses.

        I stopped being able to enjoy Dragonforce when I realized that Through the Fire and Flame is the same song as Hotel California.

    What's the most creative use for a fictional metal? Just turning it into a sword and going 'Sword but better' is pretty boring, and that's like the majority of what they're used for.
