Belequel /bɛliː'kwɛl/ (norte /'nɔːrtɛ/, noarte /'nwɑrtɛ/ in bukk) is a rare metal, known for its extraordinary density and mass. It is the heaviest element on Ahldorae, and its extreme hardness and robustness makes it difficult to work and shape. It's melting point is the highest of all the elements discovered, melting at 3,512 °C. It is usually toxic to mammals and humans in particular, especially when its hot, although individual tolerance varies.

Belequel is mainly found in mineral form and occurs in several places around the world, most notably in northern Tarnaria, where it was first discovered, near Lake Grajoon and in the Bahria volcano.

Its application was extremely limited, until the discovery of superhero warriors with the ability to lift up and wield belequel easily.

“Belequel” is derived from Mandae and means “immovable”. It is a translation of the original name “norte” used to refer to the metal in northern Tarnaria in bukk, which also means immovable. The word also takes the form of “noarte” in the beginning of the second revolution, specifically in regions south of Mantar. Belequel becomes a common term by the beginning of the third revolution, although it is frequently used by scholars and more educated people in as early as 16th century. New Dawn has also contributed to using the mandaean version of the word.

First documented records of belequel go back to the end of the first revolution. Described as “immovable rocks”, it was discovered in mineral form in norther Tarnaria. Belequel was a source of constant challenges, frequently blocking the construction of mines and requiring an inordinate amount of manpower to dislodge and move out of the way.

Trace amounts of belequel began to be used as parts of weaponry, with even minuscule amounts increasing the durability and sharpness of weapons, albeit making them much heavier. Adding small amounts of belequel to bronze creates an alloy known as royal bronze. Royal bronze began to be used in armor and shields in royal armies in the beginning of the second revolution in northern Tarnaria.

Gened was the first documented superhero warrior capable of wielding belequel and this led to the creation of several belequel weapons, including Featherwing and Proiol.
