Meteoric metal carries inherent significance. Anything made out of it will be some combination of magical, good, evil, or just incredibly strong. Crafting meteoric iron is Older Than Dirt: iron from meteorites has been used to make tools and weapons since the Ice Age, when it was the only iron available. The trope that it is special or magical isn't documented from that long ago, but some scholars believe that the Older Than Feudalism story of the forging of Zeus's thunderbolts refers to meteoric iron. Anyone with academic journal access can read more about this here. This trope can also be Truth in Television. Real-life meteoric iron is one of the few natural sources of metallic iron (as opposed to iron ore). Because medieval smelting technology was unable to remove many of the impurities found in iron ore, meteoric iron weapons could be made much stronger than the more common ore-based ones. Meteors also happen to be a main source of iridium, an extremely hard and dense metal usually only found as an impurity of platinum. See the Real Life examples below for more. In the modern day, this trope appears most frequently in literary fantasy. In many works, from The Silmarillion to Avatar: The Last Airbender, meteoric iron is depicted as a black metal (though whether this is the color of the metal or a surface layer is not always specified), causing overlap with Black Swords Are Better. Subtrope of Fantasy Metals. See also Unobtanium, which it often is, and Magic Meteor. May be interchangeable with Cold Iron or a separate kind of Depleted Phlebotinum Shells. See Hihi'irokane for its Japanese counterpart. |

Series set in the Universal Century timeline, such as Zeta Gundam and Gundam 0079, have Luna Titanium, which is a more durable alloy to normal titanium that is refined in the space fortress Luna II (hence the name Luna Titanium). The source titanium is mined both on Earth and in asteroids. Later, the asteroid based faction Axis refined a better variant and renamed Lunar Titanium as Gundarium alpha (after the titular mecha it was famously used for) and the improved variants Gundarium beta and gamma, with the latter used in mass quantity. | |

Ultimate Avengers: Captain America's shield and many of Black Widow's weapons include Vibranium, a metal from Skrull origin. In the sequel, we see the Wakandans have a huge Vibranium meteor with which they craft their weapons. (Vibranium is also a huge part of Wakanda's crafting in the original Avengers comics, though it's usually not alien.) | |

King Arthur (2004): An apparent inversion of the modern tendency for Excalibur/Caliburn/Caledfwlch to be made from a meteorite, as Merlin states that the sword is "made of iron from this earth, forged in the fires of Britain." Seemingly done to emphasize Arthur’s dual heritage (Roman father and Briton mother) and convince him to take up arms for both peoples against the Saxon invaders. | |

In The Belgariad and The Malloreon by David Eddings, the main character's BFS is made of meteoric iron. Granted, having the single most powerful magical artifact in all of existence stuck onto its hilt would have made that sword inconceivably dangerous even if it had been made of a wire frame wrapped in aluminum foil, but a sword made of any other material would have shattered when the orb was placed in the pommel. Also, It Was Meant To Be. (The only reason Garion can wield or even lift it is because said artifact is magically removing most of its weight. At one point, when required to remove the Orb from the pommel, the suddenly-returned real weight of the sword strapped across his back almost drives him to his knees before he can unbuckle it, sending it crashing to the floor.) | |

Starmetal in Fallout: Equestria is essentially this. Originally a meteor that crashed near the Castle of The Royal Sisters, Luna found the meteor and smelted the metallic ore to create the armor used by Nightmare Moon. Zebra superstition said that anything that came from space or related to the Stars was inherently Evil and believed that Luna when she became Nightmare Moon could no longer be trusted so long as she stayed near the throne of Equestria. Luna tried to figure out what exactly caused the Zebras' resentment and fear over the stars and why she was involved but never figured it out even after The Last Day happened...note 200 years later, a Cyborg scientist stumbled across a piece of Nightmare Moons' armor and after running several tests on it for any enchantments or "curses" that Zebra superstition would equate to, found out that aside from the armor having greater durability than other Equestrian armor from 1200 years ago; Starmetal was just like any other ordinary metal found on earth with no other properties or enchantments on it. He posed a theory that the reason behind Lunas' transformation into Nightmare Moon was probably because the meteor that crash-landed possibly had a microorganism inside that had infected Luna, along with spreading into the local ecosystem causing it to transform into the Everfree Forest as its known today. | |

Mobile Suit Gundam 00 has most Mobile Suits built out of E-Carbon, an extremely light-weight but durable type of carbon fiber plating. The Gundams' armor is reinforced even further, using GN Particles somehow. Normally, that's just to be expected, since 00 is newer than the previous shows and made after Carbon Fiber technology became sufficiently advanced to make the idea seem realistic. However, when you consider how almost everything Celestial Being uses is made of E-Carbon, from the Gundams to the Assault Containers, GN-Arms, GN Swords and even the Ptolemaios itself, it gets a little absurd. Now add in that one component in the GN Drives, that even Celestial Being doesn't know how to reproduce, is literally stated in the source material to be made of Metallic Hydrogen. | |

Discworld is the Trope Namer. Discworld's Thunderbolt Iron is strongly magnetized, and even more useful than normal iron for keeping away elves; people put chunks of it in circles around places where the Faerie realm gets too close. Also referenced in Wyrd Sisters. "I have a spell for that. You take some Thunderbolt iron... and make a sword out of it." When Tiffany Aching invades Elfland in one of the young Discworld books, one of her companions mentions that such swords are now considered traditional. It turns out a frying pan and a horde of Pictsies (sic) works pretty well, too. The iron used to shoe Death's horse is never named, but is basically the next level of the same thing. Unlike normal iron it can be taken even into the refuge of the King of the Elves, and Nanny uses it to intimidate him. |

Superman/Batman: A variation of this occurred in a story that had the two of them hopping around unstable timelines, when they landed in a Wild-West themed one, coming across Jonah Hex and a ton of cowboys shooting at them. When Hex heard Superman was an alien, he figured he should maybe load his gun with bullets made from meteorites. Which, of course, are kryptonite. Bonus for him not even knowing it was Superman's weakness. | |

Blue Eye Samurai. The protagonist Mizu meets the swordmaker who raises her when a meteorite falls from the sky (conveniently stopping her from being beaten to death) and she helps the swordmaker load it onto his cart. He's unable to break down the metal in the rock despite years of trying and eventually gives up and puts the rock away, but when Mizu leaves as an adult on her Roaring Rampage of Revenge, she reveals that she's made her own sword, and he realises the meteor has disappeared from where he left it. Subverted when the sword later breaks when Mizu tries Parrying Bullets; she goes to the swordmaker to get it reforged and he points out that she didn't strengthen the metal by blending it with normal steel, so it had become brittle. | |

Green Lantern: The Golden Age Green Lantern had an actual lantern, forged originally in ancient China from a glowing meteorite. A piece of the lantern was made into a ring by Alan Scott, who needed to recharge it every 24 hours by touching it to the lantern. This was retconned in later stories as the magical energy of Earth-1 (home of the Silver Age DCU), thrust into Earth-2 (home of the Golden Age DCU) by Guardian fiat. | |

Roy Greenhilt of The Order of the Stick has a sword that's made out of an alloy of starmetal. Originally, the blade was just an ordinary family heirloom, but early on in the story it was shattered. Misled into believing his sword was made of starmetal and couldn't be reforged without it, Roy led his party on a quest to obtain some and ended up with only a tiny nugget of the stuff. Later, he discovered the truth about his sword when speaking with a swordsmith in Azure City: Not only is it entirely normal steel, but actual starmetal is incredibly rare and heavy, and a blade entirely made of it would weigh 300 pounds and require all the starmetal that has ever fallen out of the sky. Reforging his blade with even the palm-sized amount that he'd found made his sword incredibly strong — in D&D terms, it became a +5 sword with the ability to severely harm undead by emitting a green glow. | |

Wolverine: The Yashida Clan's "honor sword" is also made from meteorite iron, and forged by a demon. Both factors become pivotal when Wolverine is fighting a mystical assassin, the "Iron Monk", who boasts of being impervious to mortal and Earthly weapons. The Iron Monk repeats his boast (which was backed up repeatedly throughout the issue) when Wolverine draws the sword, only to have a brief Oh, Crap! moment when its origins are explained to him. Brief because Wolverine isn't generally known for showing mercy to villains. Especially in his solo adventures. Bloodscream is another notable victim of the blade, although he survived. Bloodscream was turned into a vampire by a voodoo priest. His curse has a condition that only a blade that is not made by a mortal can kill him. |

Exalted has starmetal, one of the five magical materials. The Sidereal Exalted get the most use out of starmetal, but that's because they serve Heaven; the "star" in question is the star that represents a god's station, which falls from the heavens when they die. Seeing as the metal can only be obtained by killing a god, what little there is is used sparingly. It's rather surprising there is not more evil to it, as there is a tendency towards the gods being executed sometimes unjustly for the purpose of getting the metal. A somewhat rarer variation of Starmetal has also been published. This version (prompted by a fan saying he'd like his Daiklave to be forged from the discarded fate of Creation's next Alexander the Great) is a hero's destiny, removed from the Loom before its passage (thus leaving the hero with either an early death or a mundane life) and crystallized. Falling from the sky is therefore optional, but in a more metaphorical sense it is made of stars and sky. | |

In Dragon Age: Origins, if you have the Warden's Keep DLC installed, you can stumble upon a meteor (on whose crater a child was previously found by a woman named Martha and her husband) and have Levi Dryden's brother make a sword from it after the events at Soldier's Peak. The appropriately dubbed "Starfang" is one of the strongest swords in the game. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: In the episode Sokka's Master, Sokka makes himself a sword from a meteorite that fell in the beginning of the episode. It can quite easily slice through metal, even when thrown. He affectionately calls it his "space sword." Decades later in The Legend of Korra, Suyin Bei Fong (Toph Bei Fong's daughter) and her society of metalbenders in Zaofu collect various chunks of meteorite. Said chunks of "Space Earth" are incredibly easy to bend (almost as fluidly as water), even for the most novice of metalbenders. Toph herself actually displayed as such in the aforementioned episode of the original series. |

Dungeons & Dragons: 1st Edition The Dragon magazine article "Gems Galore!" (later re-printed in the 2nd Edition Forgotten Realms Adventures). Star metal is meteoric iron and is worth 10,000 gold pieces per pound. It can be forged (mixed with more common metals) to make weapons of superior durability and strength. The original Dungeon Master's Guide states that +3 magic metallic armor is made from meteoritic iron steel. 3rd Edition Two examples are Adamantine and starmetal. Both have extraordinary hit points and hardness. They also ignore hardness under a certain number so they are good for sundering other objects. In addition, starmetal is a version of adamantine that has the bonus property of causing extra harm to Outsiders (as opposed to the OotS version, which also harms Undead) thanks to its "affinity for the Material Plane". The book that introduces starmetal, Complete Arcane, mainly focuses on a prestige class called the Green Star Adept, where you eat starmetal until you turn into an indestructible person made of starmetal. Kheferu, found in Sandstorm, the truest form of this trope in D&D, is literally made of tempered meteorites. It automatically overcomes the Damage Reduction of all Earth-based creatures, regardless of any other requirements the creature's DR has. |

The Meteoric Bullet tool in Cultist Simulator is a musket ball made of "taenite-iron"; its use in monster-hunting makes it reasonably steeped in Edge. In the Exile DLC, you can acquire the Lionhunter's Rifle, an antique rifle inscribed with the sigil of the Strige that comes with three taenite-iron balls; this translates to gameplay as a weapon with a rapid cooldown capable of wounding your Foe, but which can only be used three times. | |

Gundanium from Gundam Wing is Unobtanium that can only be refined in space, but it does have incredible properties (super strong, super light, electrically neutral, radar-proof), so The Federation treats it this way. Appropriately enough, the Gundams were sent to Earth as part of "Operation Meteor", so... There's some actual hard science behind this; very low or zero gravity does cause noticeable differences in the crystalline structure of refined metal. Gundanium at least is plausible, presumably being an alloy of some sort that requires such an environment to harden into something useful. | |

Gundam: Series set in the Universal Century timeline, such as Zeta Gundam and Gundam 0079, have Luna Titanium, which is a more durable alloy to normal titanium that is refined in the space fortress Luna II (hence the name Luna Titanium). The source titanium is mined both on Earth and in asteroids. Later, the asteroid based faction Axis refined a better variant and renamed Lunar Titanium as Gundarium alpha (after the titular mecha it was famously used for) and the improved variants Gundarium beta and gamma, with the latter used in mass quantity. Gundanium from Gundam Wing is Unobtanium that can only be refined in space, but it does have incredible properties (super strong, super light, electrically neutral, radar-proof), so The Federation treats it this way. Appropriately enough, the Gundams were sent to Earth as part of "Operation Meteor", so... There's some actual hard science behind this; very low or zero gravity does cause noticeable differences in the crystalline structure of refined metal. Gundanium at least is plausible, presumably being an alloy of some sort that requires such an environment to harden into something useful. Gundam SEED Astray follows this trope more closely, with a metallic meteor landing in the ocean and being fought over by The Federation and ZAFT. It ends up in the hands of protagonist Lowe Guele, who crafts it into a 150m-long katana because he lives by Rule of Cool. Mobile Suit Gundam 00 has most Mobile Suits built out of E-Carbon, an extremely light-weight but durable type of carbon fiber plating. The Gundams' armor is reinforced even further, using GN Particles somehow. Normally, that's just to be expected, since 00 is newer than the previous shows and made after Carbon Fiber technology became sufficiently advanced to make the idea seem realistic. However, when you consider how almost everything Celestial Being uses is made of E-Carbon, from the Gundams to the Assault Containers, GN-Arms, GN Swords and even the Ptolemaios itself, it gets a little absurd. Now add in that one component in the GN Drives, that even Celestial Being doesn't know how to reproduce, is literally stated in the source material to be made of Metallic Hydrogen. |

In The Elder Scrolls backstory, the Ayleids (Wild Elves) of Cyrodiil were said to consider star light as the most "sublime" form of magic and venerated anything which fell from the heavens, particularly meteorite iron, which they used to craft their Ayleid Wells. Through an unknown means which no extant race has been able to replicate, the Wells channel magicka from the stars and can transmit it to mages. The Game Mod Beyond Skyrim: Cyrodiil also has it so Ayleid weapons are made of meteoric iron, and require meteoric iron to be improved. |

In A Song of Ice and Fire, the greatsword Dawn is thought to be forged from a fallen star. The blade is handed down to those rare knights of the noble House Dayne deemed worthy of wielding it—with such men always bearing the title "Sword of the Morning". The world of the series also features particularly sharp and strong blades believed to be forged by magic, but Dawn seems to be held in even greater respect. In addition to the wielders of the blade being phenomenal swordsmen, the blade itself is just better than normal swords in every way to a degree that borders on the supernatural. A previous Sword of the Morning once dueled a notorious bandit knight and hacked the bandit's first sword to bits, showing that Dawn is indeed something special. | |

Dungeons of Dredmor: The Embossed Serpentine armor set qualifies, being made of "mysterious star-metal" that fell from the skies one day. Well, parts of it; the rest is apparently just a really good imitation of it. Either way, it's some of the best heavy armor in the game. The game also makes some light fun of the idea, as it takes a special mindset to find the metal of a fallen star and think "those would make some nice pants". | |

In the Bronze Age world of Gods and Warriors, iron is rare and found only in meteorites. Instead of using it to craft weapons, it can be used to ward off for a while the Angry Ones, the spirits of vengeance. Though the antagonistic Crows worship the Angry Ones, their High Chieftain, Koronos, wears an iron ring while sacrificing for them and starts wearing it all the time as the Angry Ones grow more powerful in the last book. Telamon also starts wearing an iron ring after he becomes the Angry Ones' target for letting his aunt Alekto to be killed by crocodiles. | |

In Warhammer: The mutating ore formed from congealed dark magic is called warpstone. Used for a variety of nasty rituals and weapons, it originally fell (and is still falling) from the sky. Gromril is a more traditional version of this, although it only falls from the sky depending on what edition you're on. 8th edition's Gromril is a more mundane style of metal — the Thunderbolt Iron there is Glimril, which is so rare that only one scale of it has been found to date, in the mouth of a Chaos Lord. Grombrindal wears armour made out of the stuff. There's also the Armour of Meteoric Iron, one of the cheaper magic armours. It's basically just really tough, with no real special abilities. A variant in the form of thunderbolt silver exists in Leonardo da Miragliano's Compass of Meteoric Silver, whose arrow is made from silver taken from a meteorite and always points to the highest concentration of magic in a battlefield. |

In Chrono Trigger, one of the three Great Sages crafts a weapon out of the "Red Rock" Crono and his friends find 65 million years in the past; the prehistoric people claim that this strange "Dreamstone" has magical properties, and quite a few of the MacGuffins in the game turn out to be made from it. It is also used to repair the Masamune in preparation for fighting Magus. | |

In Changeling: The Lost, the best way to tear large chunks out of the True Fae is to use hand-forged (that is, not machine-processed) "Cold Iron." The "Rites of Spring" splatbook defines cold iron specifically as iron which has never been heated to the point of malleability by any human agency, but has instead been beaten into shape by pure brute force. Overlooking the general improbability of making anything more refined than a club or a rough mace by this method, the book outright states that your best hope of ever obtaining cold iron is to get your hands on meteoric iron, since melting down normal iron ore is pretty much the only way to get iron out of it in the first place. | |

In QI Steven recounts a story about an Inuit tribe that believed themselves to be the only humans on the surface of the planet, they were shocked when they were "discovered". Something which puzzled the explorers that found them however is that they had metal utensils; this is despite the lack of metals in the environment and having no way to trade for the metal. They, of course, got the metal from meteorites. | |

Decades later in The Legend of Korra, Suyin Bei Fong (Toph Bei Fong's daughter) and her society of metalbenders in Zaofu collect various chunks of meteorite. Said chunks of "Space Earth" are incredibly easy to bend (almost as fluidly as water), even for the most novice of metalbenders. Toph herself actually displayed as such in the aforementioned episode of the original series. |

Mage: The Awakening: The seven classical alchemical metals can be "perfected" by a magical process that consumes 90% of their mass and leaves them as Fantasy Metals.

In the Lupin III, one of several conflicting origins of Ishikawa Goemon XIII's powerful sword is that it was forged from the metal from a meteorite. The manga calls the blade Ryusei or Nagareboshi, which translates as "Shooting Star" or "Falling Star". This gets a callback decades later in the film Lupin III: The First, when the anime version, Zantetsuken, has metoric iron in it as a plot point. | |

The grimacite itself is under the protection of the Penguin Mafia, and the goodies made from it are 1) fantastically expensive (several hundred million Meat) 2) usually only available from winning the lottery. | |
