- Primary Source: Original creation.
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
- Manufacturer: Naturally occurring on Kiev'ara; refined and contained by specialized mining facilities.
- Affiliation: Lilaste Order / Diarchy
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: N/A
- Modularity: No
- Production: Mass produced
- Material: Blackblood Ice
PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Classification: Cryogenic Substance
- Weight: Light (in frozen form), Heavy (in liquid form)
- Color: Glossy black with an iridescent sheen
- Consistency:
- Solid State: Hard, glass-like ice with an unnerving oil-like texture.
- Liquid State: Supercooled viscous fluid that spreads rapidly and flash-freezes upon contact.
- Melting Point: Does not melt under conventional heat; requires specialized destabilization through high-energy impact.
- Boiling Point: Unstable; undergoes rapid expansion when destabilized.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Thermal Resilience: While frozen, Blackblood Ice resists gradual heat exposure and does not melt under normal conditions, making it effective for high-temperature environments.
- Rapid Phase Transition: When subjected to energy surges (plasma, disruptors, concentrated ion bursts), it transitions from solid to liquid in an instantaneous reaction.
- Cryogenic Shockwave: The sudden phase transition releases an enormous cold burst, flash-freezing anything in a 3-5 meter radius upon impact.
- Cold Storage: In its stable frozen state, it maintains temperatures below -300°C, capable of preserving biological specimens and cooling advanced machinery.
- Hazardous Expansion: If improperly contained, even a small amount can rapidly expand, freezing and shattering surrounding materials, making containment critical.
STRENGTHS
- Cryogenic Weaponization: Can be used in grenades, warheads, and melee weapons that release instant freezing effects on impact.
- High-Temperature Resistant: While frozen, it can withstand high temperatures without melting, making it ideal for spacecraft hull coatings and heat-resistant structures.
- Area Denial Capability: A single destabilized sample can freeze entire rooms or create impassable ice barriers in seconds.
- Energy Conductive Properties: Under controlled use, it can be harnessed for experimental energy-based cooling systems.
WEAKNESSES
- Extremely Volatile When Destabilized: If improperly handled, it can cause unintended freezing explosions, making storage and transport highly dangerous.
- Requires Special Containment: Cannot be stored in conventional cryogenic units; needs reinforced energy-dampening fields to prevent accidental destabilization.
- Unpredictable in Combat: Unlike traditional explosives, Blackblood Ice spreads and freezes rather than directly detonating, meaning unintended targets (or even allies) can be affected.
- No Direct Harm from Solid Form: Until destabilized, it is inert and not inherently harmful—a block of Blackblood Ice will not freeze a target unless activated by external force.
DESCRIPTION
Blackblood Ice is the remnant of Kiev'ara's lost oceans, transformed into a unique, oil-like frozen state after the planet was severed from the Force and cast into the void. Unlike normal ice, Blackblood Ice is thermally resistant, remaining frozen even in high-temperature environments. However, when exposed to energy surges—such as plasma strikes, disruptor bolts, or concentrated ion bursts—it undergoes a sudden and violent phase transition, shifting from solid to liquid in a fraction of a second.
This transition is what makes Blackblood Ice one of the most dangerous cryogenic substances in the galaxy. Upon destabilization, it expands outward in a freezing explosion, locking anything in its radius in a layer of unbreakable frost. This effect is so harsh that it has been known to freeze weapons, armor, and even living beings solid within moments, making it highly valuable for area-denial weaponry, cryogenic warheads, and experimental energy absorption systems.
Despite its tactical applications, Blackblood Ice is notoriously difficult to mine and store. It requires specialized containment fields to prevent accidental detonation, and even small samples can cause catastrophic freezing events if mishandled. Its potential for weaponization and industrial cooling applications has made it highly sought after by select factions, yet its instability ensures that only the most skilled engineers and weaponsmiths can harness its full potential.
Due to its unpredictable nature, Blackblood Ice is primarily used in grenades, coolant systems, and prototype energy weaponry, caution is required in its deployment. In the wrong hands, it is as much a hazard as it is a tool—a weapon of cold, destruction, and untamed power.
