Black ora is an extremely rare metal and has very unique properties. It comes into the game via special merchants (usually at pay events) and is most effective as a weapon-making material, and only weapons made of black ora have its special properties. |

'''Black ora''' is the most rare form of [[ora]], and when found in a natural black state the metal's magical properties are a direct opposite of the [[white ora|white variant]]. Though its basic properties are the same as common ora, it holds a magical curse within it when black. It is usually used by dark [[sorcerer]]s, [[cleric]]s, or [[wizard|mage]]s because of its nature. Other than that small bit of information, not much else is known due to the extreme rarity of pure black ora. |

Black ora weapons are permanently cursed, give a bonus to [[mana regeneration]] and [[wisdom]]. They give a penalty to [[spirit regeneration]]. |
|||
There are two varieties of black ora: black ora found in the [[treasure system]] and the [[scripted]] black ora used in specialty [[black ora weapon|weapons]] and [[black ora jewelry|jewelry]]. Black ora from the treasure system is found cursed, but once uncursed will remain uncursed. |
|||
The permanent cursing means that upon holding the weapon (retrieving it from a scabbard, another player, etc) the user has just a few seconds to deal with the weapon before the shadows surrounding it wrap around their hand and need to have the curse neutralized before stowing or dropping the weapon. The curse may be neutralized by pouring a dose of a [[pure potion]] or other potion (usually from special events) that contain the spell [[Neutralize Curse (309)]], or by having the spell Neutralize Curse (309) cast on them in some way. |

Black ora weapons come in two varieties, major and minor. Minor weapons are more readily available and have all the features as described. Major black ora weapons have all the same features but additionally can be attended once per day to teleport the user to a preset location. Major weapons are distributed with a +30 or above bonus, while minor weapons are normally distributed with a +20 or +25 bonus. |

As you wave the twohanded sword in the air, the shadows swirl off the twohanded sword obscuring you from view momentarily. A sibilant hiss is heard from within the gloom. |

The shadows surrounding your twohanded sword swirl around and a low murmuring can be faintly heard from within the gloom. |

Bolts of greenish-black lightning spark from the shadow twisting around your twohanded sword. |

For no apparent reason, you dive forward and hit the ground, covering the twohanded sword with your body. |

Black ora is the most rare form of ora, and when found in a natural black state the metal's magical properties are a direct opposite of the white variant. Though its basic properties are the same as common ora, it holds a magical curse within it when black. It is usually used by dark sorcerers, clerics, or mages because of its nature.

There are two varieties of black ora: black ora found in the treasure system and the scripted black ora used in specialty weapons and jewelry. Black ora from the treasure system is found cursed, but once uncursed will remain uncursed.
Pawn Broker Messaging
Trying to get a pawnshop to appraise the value of a black ora item is quite amusing:
You ask the pawnbroker to appraise a bone-handled black ora scythe. The pawnbroker's eyes grow dark as he speaks to you in a hushed tone, "Take yourself and your evil scythe away from my sight!"
If the curse is neutralized with either a cleric spell or pure potion, this type of black ora may be appraised and sold as normal to the pawnshop.
