A metal in the Team Fortress universe, it is very similar to gold but it also has some mutagenic properties. People exposed to Australium will gain very high strength and intelect. It can be made into 2 forms liquid and solid, solid Australium has the effect I talked about earlier, liquid Australium on the other hand can be used as fuel for machines and can be used to extend the life of an individual. Australium was found under Australia (hence the name) which caused Australia to be the most advanced civilization on Earth. (hell they're living on top of it so the effects are basically never ending for them) It's also a weapon type in Team Fortress 2 mainly used by people who A. have the money to buy one or B. someone who has a mann up ticket and got one as a reward. Australium wepons ingame usually are just reskins of the default weapons but will display a golden glow behind the player after killing somebody with one. Australium also has a paint bucket color but it doesn't have a chrome finish.
