The world Arklain operates as a world
that is mixed in its technological and magical advances, it is
also dimensionally unstable and will warp or shift as a result
to another time, space, dimension or a combination of the three.
Technology
- Skyrail: A railway in
the sky going from city to city. The route of connection is
dependent on the weather. Most of the time it will access
any of the cities around the Temple District. (See Maps).
The railway is a flying carriage (Train-like) linked to a
cable to keep it stable. It is marked with ancient runes and
a motor churning fuel of Dragon fat combined with a magical
Seal on the end of the carriage which regulates its release
keeps this vehicle aloft.
- Com-Links: Com-Links is
equivalent to Earth's Radios and PCs. A Com-Link1 is similar
to a transistor radio or mobile phone, a Com-Link2 is a Palm
V, a Com-Link3 a personal computer and a Com-Link4 is a
public telephone (Also a street directory). Upper Com-Links
(5+) are only available to Immortals.
- Com-Link1: Com-Link1 is
a standard mobile phone. Some Cyborgs have the Tech to have
them embedded in their skull, thus able to make 'calls'
without using their hands. A simple thought is all that is
needed to activate the link.
- Com-Link2: A Palm V Com
stores information you see on quests, such as Fiend
Appearance and Combat details, maps, routes you've taken
etc. It also allows you to check your Global Position (Works
only if you're not in the Wastelands)
- Com-Link3: Your personal
PC is a flat, glass desk, it is voice activated and can be
password, iris and voice protected. The display is
holographic, it can be used to make phone calls or access
the LinkNet, a place rather like the Internet, you can share
information but your access to information is limited by
your rank in society.
- Screens: Liquid Crystal
screens are the most basic and are most often used on
Com-Link4s to make talking easier. Most screens these days
however are 2D and holographic with 'buttons' that can be
'touched' in midair.
- Panes: Panes are like
the modern TV but its size varies from your palm to the
entire wall of a building. They are thin and usually appears
and functions like a mirror.
- Vending Machines: They
sell soda pops and smokes as well as an assortment of ices.
- Libraries: Store tomes
and books as well as information on Com-Links
- Cars: Automobiles don't
exist, carriages drawn by dinosaur like creatures are aided
by motors to help them turn.
Biotechnology
- Cyborgs: People can now
be modified into Cyborgs. Only humans, Imae and Ti can be
modified (Special cases are allowed, please ask a DM for
details). Cyborgs are part man part machine or other
synthetic material. They usually receive enhancements which
give them Extraordinary Abilities.
- Genetics: Arklain's
technology is so advanced that gene splicing and the like is
made very simple. It is however, still very expensive, and
it's usually done with a coupling of magic to make the
process easier and less hazardous for the subject.
