Nanotechne
Nanotechne (pronounced 'tek-nee') is metal infused with symbiotic nanomachines that allow the wielder to shape it into a variety of useful forms, from the humble metal plate to complex machinery. It is used for transcendence programs where the users make tablets, which they then use as a base material for something else, or to be directly used to some benefit. Nanotechne can be found throughout the megastructure in varying densities, so most civilizations will mine out a small amount to start, then begin feeding their stock with other metals to "breed" more Nanotechne. The deeper down into the megastructure one burrows, the greater the density with which Nanotechne will appear, although so too will the horrors that guard it.
In addition to mining Nanotechne or "breeding" it, the material can also be acquired by butchering any creature with metal parts.
