Is orichalcum a radical material? I was just reading MITS's Enchanting Section when the idea hit me. If it is a radical, could using three (3) units create a -7 karma cost modifier when enchanting? Given enough time, it could lead to power foci that are cheap to bond. Modifiers applied are -4 for three materials used in enchantment, and -3 for the three units of orichalcum.
