'''Obsidian''' is a dark [[stone]] with greater value than any other type of stone: obsidian items are worth three times as much as those made from normal rock. Obsidian can be found in abundance in a narrow strip on either side of the [[magma flow]] and in smaller clusters strewn throughout the mountain.

If the magma flow floods when it is first discovered, any magma that is released will cool into obsidian which can then be mined out again. However, deliberate flooding of magma (using [[floodgate]]s) will not leave behind any obsidian.

At a [[craftsdwarf's workshop]], "dark stone [[short sword]]s" can be made out of obsidian (this also requires one piece of [[wood]] for the hilt). These obsidian swords are as effective as [[steel]], doing 133% damage (relative to [[iron]]). [[Main:Toady|Toady]] had stated that he intended for these swords to wear away much faster than those made of metal, though this had not yet been implemented.
