Perderot

Perderot is a metallic substance with the scientific formula of Os14Fe12Ni4. It is unique in it's conductivity, acting as a room-temperature superconductor. It can conduct electricity almost perfectly for 18.5 kilometers before power starts to be lost. Perderot is liquid at room temperature, solidifying at temperatures of -2.3 degrees Celsius or or colder. Perderot can form an alloy with Dragonrock, creating a very hard and dense alloy which conducts electricity very well, although not as well as pure Perderot.

Perderot is formed when an asteroid composed of Iron, Nickel and Osmium passes through the atmosphere of a Gas Giant. The intense pressures and heat fuse the metals together, causing changes at the molecular level, rearranging the atoms into an ideal for conducing electricity. The reason Perderot is so rare is the fact that many asteroids that stray into Gas Giants are either to high in the atmosphere to form into Perderot, or low enough that their orbit decays and the asteroid fall down into the Gas Giant. A perfect amount of momentum is required for Perderot to be formed without it being lost. Due to it's rarity and technological uses, 1 kilogram of Perderot is worth 150,000 Ver.
