Dragonbone

Dragonbone is, as the name implies, bone from a dragon. Dragonbone is incredibly rare because of the fact that the dragon hunters of Neverra hunted the dragons of Thedas to near extinction long ago. Dragonbone is just as strong if not stronger than steel and much lighter, making a weapon made of it quite desireable. Furthermore, it is the material that holds magical runes better than any others. For these reasons, Dragonbone has always been highly sought and valuable.
