Like [[krodera]], '''kroderine''' is anti-magical in nature. Unlike krodera, kroderine absorbs magic rather than reflects it. As such, a weapon that is crafted of kroderine randomly dispels those that it is used on. At its base, kroderine handheld items (weapons/shields) dispel 1 spell, and worn items dispel (up to?) 7.

Kroderine appears fairly similar to [[steel]] in its natural state. It has a tendency to blacken over time as a side effect of its special magic-consuming properties, though this can be concealed with dye.

Items made of kroderine cannot be used by anyone that "cannot survive an attack by a [[dhu goleras]]," which is about [[level]] 80. 

Holding a kroderine shield reduces the wearer's maximum mana by 50%. Wearing kroderine armor reduces maximum mana to 0.

==Items==
Kroderine was released during [[Ebon Gate 2006|Ebon Gate]], in the year 5106; one longsword was released (a blackened kroderine longsword with a heavily enruned hilt). The only kroderine known to be in adventurer's hands was used to disable a complex series of magical wards created by the [[Hall of Mages]] to protect the [[Paidreg Venquinor|Venquinor]] household in [[Solhaven]] in 5108.

At the Ebon Gate auction in the year 5109, a blackened kroderine full plate and a pitch-black kroderine aegis were available on the auction block. A few kroderine items have been made available via raffle or prizes in subsequent Ebon Gate festivals, as well as [[Droughtman's Challenge]]. Base kroderine items were available at the high end scrip shop at [[Duskruin Arena]] in [[Duskruin Arena/April 2017 prize list|April 2017]].

==Enhancements==
Kroderine items cannot be enchanted or otherwise magically enhanced at all, as the material simply absorbs the magic instantly. Kroderine cannot even be enchanted by the [[premium point]]s system, merchant services, [[Duskruin]] enchant certs, etc. Literally the material cannot have it's enchantment increased by ANY means, period.

Kroderine items cannot be [[Loresong|loresung]] by [[bard]]s. If a bard does attempt to sing to it, the item [[Stunned|stun]]s them and drains all of their [[mana]]. The bard will not be able to regain mana for approximately ten minutes.

==Messaging==

Absorbing [[spell]]s cast on kroderine (such as [[Weapon Fire]]):
<pre{{log2}}>
Wizard gestures at you.
CS: +XXX - TD: +XXX + CvA: +25 + d100: +7 - -5 == +104
Warding failed!
Your kroderine longsword is struck with Wizard's cast. The magic of the spell is instantly devoured by the longsword!
</pre>

Dispel flares:
<pre{{log2}}>
You swing a murky black kroderine short sword at a triton radical!
AS: +578 vs DS: +370 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +76 = +308
... and hit for 82 points of damage!
Awesome slash severs the triton radical's right arm!
A jagged stump is all that remains!
The radical's bronze scaling fork falls to the ground.

** Your kroderine short sword glows brightly for a moment, consuming the magical energies around the triton radical! **

A triton radical seems slightly different.
A hazy film coats a triton radical.
You swing a thin-bladed kroderine short sword at a triton radical!
AS: +564 vs DS: +307 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +37 = +318
... and hit for 74 points of damage!
Left leg ripped from socket at the knee!
A triton radical falls to the ground grasping her mangled left leg!

** Your kroderine short sword glows brightly for a moment, consuming the magical energies around the triton radical! **

The guiding force leaves a triton radical.
The hazy film around a triton radical fluxes chaotically!
... 30 points of damage!
Sizzling arc of plasma blows the triton radical's kneecap off!
The hazy film fades from a triton radical.
</pre>

Absorbing loresinging:
<pre{{log2}}>
The magic of your song begins to penetrate the kroderine full plate when something goes horribly wrong! The normally faint resonating vibration is instead a cacophonous roar that not only readily consumes the magic of your song, but also begins to work its way into your very being. Your [[mana]] is ripped away from you in an instant as you collapse to the ground, drained and feeling a horrible emptiness inside you!

Roundtime: 30 sec.
</pre>

==Automated Games==
For a list of non-jackpot prize items, please see here: '''[[/mini-games prize list|Ebon Gate 2018 mini-games prize list]]'''.
===Digging, Mini-Games, Deep Sea Diving===
Every year at Ebon Gate gives you the chance to play and experience multiple games and other adventures. At this year's Ebon Gate we have digging on the beach, various games of luck, and Deep Sea Diving. From said adventures you have the chance to pull great prizes. These prizes range from junk to one of a kind unique items.

* Deep Sea Diving, Games, & Digging - All pull from the same shared feeder. Deep Sea Diving is the main source for quest items, but a number of quest items have been placed in the regular games hoppers. Quest items will not be found in fishing.
* All automated games (Mini-Games, Digging, Deep Sea Diving, and Fishing) share the unique/jackpot feeders.

Dig along the black sands of the beach, and unbury long lost treasures! NPCs available along the shore's edge will sell shovels in convenient 1-use and 20-use sizes, which cost 2,000 and 40,000 silvers, respectively.

A few Mini-Games can be found in the sea caverns, and will require that your pockets jingle with silvers in order to play. Mini-Games are not compatible with notes, so fill your pockets will silvers!

Both Digging and Mini-Games participation will require a Games Pass, available in the SimuCoin store. Passes are account-wide and are good for one week's play time.

See the '''[[Deep Sea Diving]]''' article for additional information specific to that activity.

===Fishing===
It will cost 50 [[Ebon Gate seashell]]s to enter the fishing area (a games pass is not required), and top tier unique/jackpot rewards pull from the same shared feeder as the activities above. Once inside, (make sure you take your fishing gear with you!), you will remain until you catch a fish. After a successful catch, you will be removed from the room. Caught fish will need to be CUT to receive your prize (and maybe a filet). Fishing will yield items that are not found in other games, but can produce both Unique and Jackpot items.

Fishing does not require any specific skill, though a bit of survival may help you cut out a filet. General knowledge of the [[fishing]] system will help, as fishing can be a bit time-consuming, especially when unfamiliar with this activity.

You will need a fishing pole, fishing line, and bait, all of which can be found in the Fishing Shack down on the pier in Caligos Isle, though you're not required to purchase items from this shop - [[:Category:Fishing Shops|ANY fishing pole/wire/bait]] will function the same.

Fishing is the exclusive place to obtain the required item for conversion to Ghezresh. Those who do not want to convert will have an alternate path if this item is found. This item is also tradeable.

===Diving Competition===
Have you ever wanted to jump off a cliff and perform the most perfect and beautiful swan dive? Or would you rather curl up your body and crash into the water like a cannonball? Now you can! And, you'll be scored on your efforts. The top five divers at the end of the festival will be known forever as a Caligos Diving Champion (a post-name unique title). This activity costs 50 seashells. It does not tie into the prize feeders, but it does offer some unique gems that are not available in other games.

=== Jackpot Teasers ===
Here's a small list of some things you might find as a jackpot win while playing mini-games, digging on the beach, diving in the Abandoned Waters, or fishing in the sea caverns.
