Finally read up and through the lore, it seems hematite is fairly common in the frost woods, so we can assume in similar biomes/sub-true mountain ranges is common hematite deposits, with that I can reason out that the only reason steel isnt too common is that its simply too cold to effectively smelt without some form of blast furnace, whereas the quality of bronze is far more consistent and as such no ones ever bothered with steel. That greatly widens up the race range for vro, henceforth placeholder named Soreal. Ive gotten a good chunk into writing a basic backstory and summary, so along with any other ideas or opinions id like to see what kinda weapons the people would be interested in. As of right now ive sketched up a bog standard handheld magic catalyst for the mages, a Falx for the warriors, and im considering some form of light longsword/fencing blade for the rogues, perhaps some kind of scimitar or dual blade for the dancers? And for anyone wondering, im gonna really be bulk messaging in the afternoons as I wont have any way at all to see the forums in the morning and during the day, so forgive me if the posts start seeming back to back
//Also, i have taken a bit of liking to the bratty-esque persona for low corruption pcs, and a genuine dislike, not hatred or lockout mind you, of high corruption pcs. Ill get some more thought put into the build up first though
