Solafite
Solafite is an ore found underground throughout various cave systems on the island. Once the player obtains the Pickaxe, they can collect and use solafite to upgrade various weapons and tools.
Description[edit | edit source]
Solafite takes the appearance of an amber-golden material, found naturally as large, cluttered veins around the Island, either in caves or in the snowy heights of the mountains. It is purpoted to possess exceptional properties that could lead it to be the foundation of a major technological breakthrough. Not only does solafite possesses an exceptional material resilience and conductivity, but it also seems to possess other properties that could be qualified as nothing short of supernatural.
It was initially found that solafite could alter biological organisms akin to radiation, a property which could theorically be used in the medical and pharamceutical world. PuffCorp, holding at the current time the most extensive research on the material, wished to exploits its properties as a powerful rejuvinating agent, and set its sights on securing the largest known deposit of Solafite at the time, located beneath the Island. Despite its relatively novel discovery, the finding of strange artefacts and structures made from solafite in the depths of the Island added another layer of mystery over the origin and true nature of this material. One artefact in peculiar, the Cube, was rumored to possess marvelous powers, namely trans-dimensional travel. Preliminary researches suggested that the Cube would activate in the near future, and in the process amplify the solafite's claimed rejuvinating powers. PuffCorp then hurried to establish a resort on the Island, capitalizing on the event by allowing a privileged few to witness the activation of the Cube and have a first-hand access to the miraculous solafite.
However, the hasty research left many blind spots regarding the solafite's nature, which would eventually lead to tragic, unforseen consequences on the day of the activation of the Cube.
In the wake of the tragedy, PhD in transdimentional physics Tim Leblanc would make his way to the Island to find the Cube and research about its nature further. Suffering from malignant mutations caused by another artefact of similar nature, Timmy found promise in solafite to cure his condition. Timmy would return from the Island with a sample of solafite to be researched to create a possible treatement for his condition. The material's powers would prove to be nothing short of a miracle, being able to completely cure Timmy. This new breakthrough took the pharmaceutical industry by storm, being seemingly able to treat diseases which were previously incurable. The immense potential of solafite was such that it eventually acquired its own stock market rate, alongside gold and oil. Extensive prospection operations were led around the world, leading to the finding of several new deposits.
