Roxodium

Roxodium was a type of metal. It could undergo a costly reversed polarity treatment turning it into refined roxodium plating, which gave it the ability to reflect and redirect ionic charges. It was used by the Khepi people in the construction of the Great Tomb in the Sayma Nebula, as well as to build sentry droids to serve as protectors of the tomb. Refined roxodium was used to make or upgrade starship and blasters and was worth 220 credits in 3 ABY. While the Miyuki Trade League was in control of the Hauler's Keep space station in the Khepi system, it required all shipments of roxodium to be cleared by the League.
