Uses of Arnium

"I have been researching a new power source for some time now. It has been difficult to get something that has constant, self-sustainable, energy. But... seeing as I am so brilliant, I figured it out." -- Daarken speaking about Arnium to his followers

Arnium is a metal found by Drake Englen that can give off more energy than is put into it. (Essentially breaking the first law of thermodynamics.) It is used as a self-sustainable energy source for most of his projects. It is quite a rare metal and is very easy to track because there is so little of it and it gives off a strong energy pulse.

There have so far been many uses found for Arnium.

1.

Daarken uses it to power his robots. He has figured out a way to put small chunks of Arnium into a core and then put a small amount of electricity into the core to have the Arnium continually put out energy for the robots to use. The Arnium will then continue emmiting enrgyy waves until it is either destroyed or the core is shut off.

2.

Since Arnium is constantly creating it's own energy source, it came be very volitile to explosion and combustion if too much energy is put into a small amount. Therefore, if you keep a chunk of Arnium that is 2 cubic cm in a flame for at least 5 seconds, it will explode. 2 cubic cm of Arnium has a blast radius of roughly 3-5 meters. If you pack enough of this into some sort of bomb, it could theoretically destroy entire planets.

3.

Chunks Arnium can explode and have large blast radii. However, when these chunks explode, they send out millions upon millions of tiny little particles of Arnium. You may think that this is not useful. But... it most certainly is. The reason why, is that Arnium can be tracked very easily. If you are trying to hide from someone and you have a chunk of Arnium, they can very easily track you. But, if you are surrounded by tons and tons of little particles of Arnium, the tracker will be able to find you general location. But, they will not know exactly where you are because their scanners will be picking up all of the tiny little pieces in the air.
