Biography
Quote:
maf·ic
/ˈmafik/
adjective, Geology
Mafic is an adjective describing a silicate mineral or igneous rock that is rich in magnesium and iron, and is thus a portmanteau of magnesium and ferric. Most mafic minerals are dark in color, and common rock-forming mafic minerals include olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Common mafic rocks include basalt, diabase and gabbro. Mafic rocks often also contain calcium-rich varieties of plagioclase feldspar.
Chemically, mafic rocks are enriched in iron, magnesium and calcium and typically dark in color, in contrast, felsic rocks are typically light in color and enriched in aluminum and silicon along with potassium and sodium.
Mafic lava, before cooling, has a low viscosity, in comparison with felsic lava, due to the lower silica content in mafic magma. Water and other volatiles can more easily and gradually escape from mafic lava. As a result, eruptions of volcanoes made of mafic lavas are less explosively violent than felsic-lava eruptions. Most mafic-lava volcanoes are shield volcanoes, like those in Hawaii.

Called the Lava Twins by their clan, Mafic and Felsic have a relationship as hard and steady as the rocks they are named after.
Mafic, in addition to being a darker, ruddy color, has a more down-to-earth nature than his sister. He likes metallurgy and digging, and is less about combat and more about crafting. Whenever something needs fixing, his friends and family come to him first.
