I'm very new to this site. I found it the other day when I was looking for a forum where I could ask questions about a name for a substance in my story. A certain [awesome] member gave me some advice, which led me to the name Prometheum, and perhaps even a derivative substance, Prometheocite. I chose this name because of the Prometheus myth, in which he accidentally created human kind from clay. My intent is for Prometheum to have been this clay, and more besides. It is life force, magick, everything. It's in everything. It is everything. But it of course has a raw, physical form, as well. Which is what directly enables the conflict in my story, really. There is already an element called Promethium, which is why I replaced the 'i' with an 'e'. However... I'm kinda stumped again. I need it to have different forms, such as a solid, a liquid, and even a crystallized form (which, I suppose, is also a solid, but still...). I need to know what sort of processes it would have to endure in order for this to happen, or how to go about finding out, at least. I would also like to define it chemically, as to how it is related to other elements, such as which groups it would be relative to in the periodic table, etc. I suppose it obviously needs to differ, from form to form, as in some it would be a metal, others a liquid... I don't know. I'm confused. I'm not even sure if this is the right place to ask this kind of question, but I figured I'd give it a shot, seeing as I had so much success last time. I hope this makes sense.
Thank-you for you time!
