|description=Bloodsteel was first developed by followers of [[Sraxaec]], who perfected an exacting smelting process undertaken only beneath clear skies in outdoor crucibles when the planet [[Sidasas]] is visible. The careful timing of each stage, the precise regulation of the furnace, and the introduction of powdered [[truegold]] and specially selected colored gemstones blessed by a Cleric of [[Sraxaec]] give the procedure an almost ritualistic quality. The unusual properties of the finished metal are attributed by non-believers to the faintly glowing powder and gemstone dust incorporated during smelting, though its creators vehemently insist that the true source is the influence of [[Sraxaec]] and [[Sidasas]] in the sky above them while they work.

|type=metals
|stype=steels
|rarity=quest-only
|CTag=grey, silver
|quality=innately magical
|special=kaldar style
|altrules=The steel itself will remain some usual steel shade of silver/grey. Any color references apply to the hue of the effect bleeding across it. The glossy appearance resembles liquid trickling across the surface, yet the material remains completely solid and dry. The verb "bleed" can be used to describe the movement of color, but "bloodsteel" must appear in the same field. The metal may be matte, tarnished, etc., but the color effect is always glossy/glistening in the related atmospheric messaging.
|altsum=Metal remains grey, color only applies to bleeding effect, which resembles liquid bleeding across it. If "bleed" is used in description, "bloodsteel" must be in the same field.
