Tech Review Paradalium Alloy

[Jocelyn]

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To create Paradalium, a highly exclusive, patented alloy with unique energy-reflective properties.
• Image Source: N/A (fictional material)
• Canon Link:
  • Dallorian Alloy
  • Agrinium
• Permissions: Open Market
  • Parabrite
• Primary Source:
  • Dallorian Alloy
  • Agrinium
  • Parabrite

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Star Bazaar: Emporium of Everything
• Affiliation: Star Bazaar: Emporium of Everything. Available to specific individuals, factions, and companies with explicit permission.
• Market Status: Closed-Market (Access restricted to authorized entities with patent licensing).
• Model: N/A (alloy material)
• Modularity: Yes (adaptable for armor, hull plating, protective shielding, etc.)
• Production: Mass Produced
• Material: Paradalium (composite alloy of Parabrite, Dallorian Alloy, and Agrinium, fused in a patented process)

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Energy Reflective: Parabrite mitigates damage from EMPs, electricity, and radiation by reflecting portions of incoming energy, with the direction of deflection depending on the angle of impact, similar to light on a reflective surface. While effective in reducing damage, it doesn't fully negate it, allowing some energy to penetrate under sustained or intense exposure.
• Thermal Resistance: Dallorian Alloy provides good resistance to heat, reducing the impact of high temperatures and thermal attacks. However, it does not entirely block heat, meaning prolonged exposure to intense heat may still cause damage over time.
• Radiation-Resistant Shielding: Agrinium provides reliable protection against ionizing radiation, reducing exposure to underlying components. However, intense or prolonged radiation can still gradually penetrate this shielding.
• Patented Synthesis Process: The method for creating Paradalium is a proprietary process, strictly confidential and available only to authorized manufacturers with exclusive licensing.
• Non-Magnetic: Parabrite's unique properties render Paradalium unresponsive to magnetic fields, providing stable protection against electromagnetic interference.

STRENGTHS

WEAKNESSES

• Heavy Material: The dense composition of Paradalium can reduce mobility in personal armor and add significant weight to ship hulls, impacting maneuverability.
• High Energy Absorption Limit: While Paradalium reflects energy, it can only handle a finite amount before degrading. Repeated energy attacks gradually weaken its reflective properties, diminishing effectiveness over time.
• Incompatible with Certain Alloys: Paradalium doesn't bond well with some common alloys, restricting its use in reinforced hybrid materials or applications that require alloy combinations.
• Energy Retention Hazard: Paradalium can retain residual energy after exposure to high-intensity attacks, which may result in accidental discharges, posing risks to users and nearby systems.
• Vulnerability to Sonic Attacks: Paradalium structure poorly absorbs sonic energy, and certain frequencies can even amplify within it, making it particularly susceptible to sound-based attacks that disrupt and compromise its structural integrity.

DESCRIPTION
Paradalium is a patented alloy from Star Bazaar, blending Parabrite, Dallorian Alloy, and Agrinium for high durability. It reflects EMPs, electricity, and radiation, provides thermal and radiation resistance, and remains stable in electromagnetic fields. However, it's dense, adding weight to armor and ship hulls, and has a limit on repeated energy exposure, which can degrade its effectiveness. Paradalium may retain energy after intense attacks, posing a discharge risk, and is vulnerable to sonic disruptions. Access is restricted to licensed entities only.

Jocelyn I'll be reviewing this.

First off, Integrum has been denied by the factory staff, and thus cannot be used.

It is, sadly, not possible for any solid material to be disruptorproof. As such I'm going to retroactively deny this.

As such, it's disruptor resistance is void, as would it be in this sub. I'd like to ask you to remove it.

Secondly.

Energy Reflection: Reflects EMPs, electricity, and radiation.

True reflection is impossible based on factory rules. Anything can get through with enough force, as is the rules of the factory. I'll ask you reword this to make it clear it's not true reflection.

Third:

Thermal and Disruptor Resistance: Offers extreme heat resistance and blocks disruptor attacks, thanks to Dallorian and Integrum components.

If it has true extreme resistance, this sub should be semi-unique, as per factory rules. Either reword that, or bump it down to semi-unique.

Finally, I'll ask you to add another weakness. As is, this sub is very powerful, and 'heavy' is not a sufficient weakness.

Does that mean any other subs using Integrumare no longer viable?

Correct. The sub has been denied, meaning you'll need to redo any sub using it. Apologies for any inconvenience.
