Scandra - Scandium Trading Cards

The wizard, Scandra represents Scandium in The Magical Elements of the Periodic Table. Scandra can touch things and change them into something else. She can turn solid things into liquids or gases, reshape objects, or make things stronger using Scandium. This makes her really good at alchemy, so she can make potions and elixirs that can heal people or give them temporary powers. Russian chemist Dmitry Ivanovich Mendeleyev in 1871 predicted Scandium’s existence. He tentatively called it Ekaboron. W. Walker Smith, a chemist and musician, saw a gorgeous and complex visual representation of Scandium and became inspired by the discrete wavelengths of light released by the element to convert the natural vibrations of molecules from it and other elements into a musical composition called “element music”. The blue colour of the mineral beryl and its gem variety aquamarine is said to be due to concentrations of Scandium. During combustion, Scandium makes an interesting raspy sound. When Scandium is added to mercury gas inside a light bulb it gives it a nice daylight colour.
