No it can be demon too.  I think they can share most of the FB traits, as I once met a demon that chanted ceaselessly, so they can probably have other similar flavor traits.

If adamantine is perfectly rigid, as shown by having 0 strain at fracture in the raw files, then the speed of sound in the metal approaches the speed of light. Adamantine musical instruments would produce ultrasonic vibrations, and cut off the fingers of the musician.

Sigged, if only this worked i could make some adamantine flutes for the nobles

All adamantine guitars are played with adamantine picks.

Too bad that adamantine is not heavy metal.

Is there such a thing as Feather-Light Metal?

I can see it as being a bunch of soft spoken dwarves standing around playing mandolins and such things while somebody gently says metal lyrics.

Also, how long would it take a dwarf to smash a guitar made out of Adamantine?

With [SLOW_LEARNER], dwarves probably don't sit around and talk anymore. They just stand in the same corner altogether, staring at each other, sticking their bearded lips out trying to make sounds. And giggling when someone actually says a whole word.

- If it did melt, its density would increase 13x from 0.2 g/cm3 to 2.6 g/cm3. Most normal substances decrease in density slightly when they melt. This means that a melting adamantine bar would shrink.
- Adamantine is only ~10x stronger than steel, more or less, but it is perfectly rigid. How adamantine thread works is beyond me.

Perhaps these two are related, when Addy thread is heated in clumps, it becomes more rigid and thus can be forged into weapons.

It would take about the same time as a normal tantrum takes to settle down.  Amirite?

"she" meant that the dwarf will swing the guitar during a tantrum, and then calm down.

Any thoughts on how this can be abused?
Around these parts It's called weaponized.

You want to know why adamantine has almost impossible characteristics? It's MAGIC. Also probably a defect-free covalently-bonded metal with an unusually negative nucleus and a large amount of the strong nuclear force, along with a polar electron distribution similar to that of water.

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.
