The most prevalent of the artificial dweomermetals is glassteel. Glassteel is glass which has been ensorceled to retain the lightness and energy-absorbing properties of glass, but also have the durability of steel. Needless to say, this makes a pretty decent suit of armor, but can also make for interesting weapons and particularly ammunition, such as arrows. A very famous fairy-tale about Ascallarre Rift-Sealer tells of his shattering glassteel arrows, inflicting ten-thousand wounds with every shot. Surprisingly, glassteel can be used with fabric, hide, padded, and similar "soft” armors, as glass-smiths can magically spin glass so thin that it is flexible, and then the entire spool can be converted to glassteel.

Ancient lore also tells of magically altered wood, such as Stonewood, Ironwood and Steelwood, which altered natural wood to take on greater durability and magical affinity, but these methods have been lost to time.
