The Soul Urn is an advanced material central to the Age of Steel. A Soul Urn, as its name suggests, is a collection of souls confined to torment inside a simple piece of pottery. Their suffering may thus be conveniently harnessed to create various devices and tools to make Steve's life easier.
A Soul Urn may be thrown, if one is feeling particularly cantankerous, though violently releasing ghastly forces might create some problems.
Creation
The process of creating a Soul Urn is not trivial, and begins with the mining of large volumes of Netherrack. The Netherrack is ground in a Mill Stone (preferably some distance away from one's location), and eight such Ground Netherrack are passed through a Soul Sand-filtered, mechanically powered Hopper with an Urn placed directly underneath. That the Hopper be powered is critical, lest too much evil coagulate inside it...
An important by-product of Soul Urn manufacture is Hellfire Dust.
Automation
The process of Soul Urn creation is amenable to automation in its entirety, save the harvesting of Netherrack and Clay. Such automation, however, poses many engineering challenges.
