I got more rust monster outrage about Xor which is ok. A human body has the about ir Iron in it equal to the weight of a paperclip. Poor rust monsters stick their antenna into veins and filter feed for most of the day to get Iron. It is very tiring for them dealing with that stuff they don't need in the way. They also find nodules or iron made by bacteria or other creatures on the ocean like volume of blood. Some things leave iron they don't consume as iron nodules. This quality varies and is about as good as bog iron, require good smelting and is otherwise brittle. Meteoric Iron from the stars is of superior quality and even primitive people use it as it can be enchanted up to +3. The primitive people with poorer quality common form of Xor iron mostly make +1 weapons at best and most are blunt maces with bone handles with sinew to hold in place. Rust monsters go crazy for refined Iron and can smell it a mile away, even following you for days and coming from deep underground. More metal makes the tracking range increase to ten miles. Rust proof processes taste funny to them.
As if you didn't already need a reason to visit Xor here are 100 more to possibly discover Xor for your players. As Im running ASE Anomalous sub surface environment I might use it there for some high level stuff.
A party is selected to find something and the answer is Xor. Some adventurers may get additional missions from their religions or guilds or masters. Use them as ruins and teasers. Perhaps roll a mission per player plus one - select one for official mission and give every player their own missions.
