'''Orichalcum''' is a material type introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. Orichalcum materials contain the rarest of metals. As of ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', the Orichalcum was redubbed as the "Orichalcum+", while the new material {{nihongo|'''Orichal'''|オリハル|Oriharu}} took the name "Orichalcum".


==Design==
==''Kingdom Hearts''==
A basic Orichalcum is represented by a star-shaped, aqua-colored jewel. Its upper half is lined by five triangular spikes that alternate from large to small. Its lower half has two slanted spikes on either side and one diamond-shaped spike on its bottom. The center of the jewel is adorned by white sparkles.
Orichalcum are most frequently found as prizes for mini-games or rewards for completing tasks:
An Orichalcum+ is represented by a large, aqua-colored jewel. It is more snowflake-like in design that a basic Orichalcum. Its top half is lined by five triangular spikes that alternate from large to small in size. The two smaller spikes fork into three points at their tips, and all five spikes are connected by four thin bars. Its lower half is lined by four slanted spikes, two on each side of the jewel. One large, diamond-shaped spike is placed on its bottom, and there are white sparkles decorating the center of the jewel.


In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', Orichalcum is colored light pink, and consists of a large, cube-shaped crystal flanked by two smaller crystals.  
*[[Traverse Town]] - Find and turn in eight [[Traverse Town#Mini-Games|postcards]]; return 72 [[101 Dalmatians|dalmatian]] puppies to Pongo and Perdita.
*[[100 Acre Wood]] - Complete the Pooh's Muddy Path mini-game, find five Rare Nuts for [[Owl]] in the Tigger's Giant Pot area.

{{w|Orichalcum}} is a metal mentioned in numerous ancient writings, and was supposedly second-only to gold in value.
It is also dropped by two Heartless in ''Kingdom Hearts'', both of which are fought in the [[End of the World]].  [[Behemoth]]s have a 20% chance of dropping one, but are fairly rare and hard to find.  [[Invisible]]s are also known to drop Orichalcum, but while they are more common, they have a mere 1% drop rate.
