Divine metals are special, procedurally generated metals that can be found in vaults. Divine metals are used as material for items, weapons and armor used by angels, who ruthlessly protect the vault's priceless treasures.

Traits

Divine metals appear to have identical material properties and list of items craftable from them; the only difference between them are the name and deity association. All divine metals have yield values of 1000000, fracture values of 2000000, and strain-at-yield values of 0. They are extremely light, at only a [SOLID_DENSITY] of 1000, and have a superior [MAX_EDGE] of 12000. They are granted spheres matching the associated deity that has created the metal (and the angels who wield it), and a descriptive name with the formula of "(adjective) metal" — examples of such are "multicoloured metal" and "twisting metal".

Overall, their material properties are much better than the corresponding values of steel, but worse than those of adamantine. They are terrifyingly potent when used for edged weapons, due to their ultra-sharpness, but despite their light weight, even blunt weapons tend to be highly effective. Any adventurer that is godly enough (or reckless) to take on a page of angels highly advised that he get proper equipment before engaging these divine creatures. The easiest way to do so is with the help of your own dwarf fortress — once you obtain access to adamantine and have made some equipment out of it, retire your fort temporarily, then let your adventurer visit that fort.
