- | Technology, with a few exceptions, is treated as the exact opposite of Magic. | + | Alaraes is set in the post-post apocalypse. While society has somewhat recovered from the Collapse, and technology is abundant in the world, much of it is poorly understood at best. A prime example are Foundries; large black-box production centers that are relics from before the collapse. Each Foundry produces one or two specialized items given the appropriate materials are provided to the input. The peoples of Alaraes may be able to perform simple maintenance and repair, but should one of these relics be badly damaged or broken, they would have no idea how to fix it. The same can be said for auto-docs or augmentation centers. Some technological concepts have simply been lost to the sands as time. However, technology is still an everyday occurance. Farmers may have grav-carts and electric razors. Hostels and Bread-and-breakfasts may have access to electricity. Adventurers may have firearms, tanks, or radios. Just because something is poorly understood, does not mean it is not used. |
