Template:FEATURE Resources of Loathing
In the Kingdom, smithing isn't done with copper or iron. The most basic natural resource is Meat, the Kingdom's currency. Meat stacks are a base component of many weapon and armor smithing recipes. With the proper gear, miners can dig up asbestos, linoleum and chrome ores from the living rock. More adventurous miners who brave the spooky - and phallic - Knob Shaft may find styrofoam, cardboard, or bubblewrap ores. If you can breathe like the fishes and swing a pick at the same time, you can find teflon, velcro, and even vinyl ores from the bubbling depths. If you were around for White Wednesday, you may have received some precious petrified time with which to craft a temporal suit. Rarer resources include the Pork Elf gems Baconstone, Porquoise and Hamethyst. Although not smithable, the rarest of resources are the Hardcore reward items that are made out of stainless steel, plexiglass, and Brimstone.
