Athin is a blue algae that grows in freezing waters. Its location however can make it particularly difficult to harvest requiring aid. First one would have to find a spot where snow and ice do not block vision into the waters below. Should athin be located then the real dangers come into play. If the ice is too thin it could break beneath the harvester’s feet causing them to fall into the freezing water. Those who manage to find a hole with which to enter the water might then lose their way down in the darkness, unable to find their way out. Or perhaps the harvester fails to taking precautions with heating before entering the water and then freezes in the cold winds once they’re out.

The reward for gathering the plant is worth the risk, as athin is one of the best materials out there that is fireproof. Many who carry around or make alchemist fire will keep some athin on them for safety precautions. It even makes a great cooling lotion. It'll cool the skin that it touches but if too much is applied this can result in a light frostbite. It also tends to leave behind a blue hue where it touches.

Athin is found beneath ice, such as growing within frozen lakes or clinging to the bottom of icebergs, and can only be harvested by scraping it off of the surface it is on. As a result, Athin requires the harvester to enter the frozen water or pull the ice out. Athin can not be farmed, making it a dangerous to collect but valuable plant.

Athin is a light blue algae. Found under frozen ponds, lakes, and rivers and beneath glaciers and icebergs, Athin is inflammable and cold to the touch. It is generally used to create flame-resistant materials.

Description

As an algae, Athin resembles kelp, with small, leaf-like structures (blades) that are light blue in color. On land, the blades clump together, forming a mass resembling moss.

Athin is cold to the touch. While it is less cold than Frost Vine and does not produce a numbing effect, prolonged contact with Athin can induce hypothermia.

Athin is also distinguished by its inflammability. It is resistant up to temperatures around metals' melting points, when it spontaneously combusts.

Habitat and distribution

Athin is found beneath ice, such as growing within frozen lakes or clinging to the bottom of icebergs, and can only be harvested by scraping it off of the surface it is on. As a result, Athin requires the harvester to enter the frozen water or pull the ice out. Athin can not be farmed, making it a dangerous to collect but valuable plant.

Uses

Athin is primarily used to produce fire-resistant material. It is dried, ground, and either boiled with fabrics or mixed with lard and waxed onto metal objects. The resulting materials are inflammable and are not damaged by fire, but do not prevent the user from experiencing heat and cause hypothermia when worn in cold environments for more than an hour.

Alchemical

Athin is a common ingredient in potions related to coldness, ice, and related effects, such as paralysis.
