Property
A yellow-tinted metal common in the divine realms, where discarded celestial objects are melted into coins and tools. On the Material Plane it is prized because it soaks up and gives off radiance. Used smelted.
Good for: items that deal or resist radiant damage, and items tied to a deity (good fit), e.g. a holy avenger.
Affinity: radiant, divine, metal
In this system
A portion of Palladium is an empty vessel that can hold 1,000 MP (MP). It only becomes magical when a character charges it. Unique parts are what a special slot is for.
