Ahem.

I have a question: how are core-based technologies, such as carriages, powered? Do they run solely on the internal energy of the core? Or do they run on other forms of energy (electricity, internal combustion, etc.)? If the cores provide the power, and the cores have finite power, then are the cores like disposable batteries or rechargeable fuel cells?
Additionally, how accessible are core-based technologies? Are they used in common household appliances? Or are core technologies more expensive and are thus generally not found in residential use?

Oh my bad, yo.

•Cores are like gems, made out of a unique substance that houses a spiritual energy inside (this will be explained IC). This spiritual energy is what makes the core what it is - fire, lightning, etc. Without that energy, a core just looks like a clear, crystal sphere or the sort. Core slots are made out of a unique metal that can react with the physical crystallized material the core is made of, and as a result of the reaction, let the energy lose. So it isn't electrical, heat powered, etc. It's a chemical reaction between the metal and gem that lets the core's hidden energy loose. I won't go in depth as our Channeler (GrandDM) will be the character we learn about them from. I'll PM him info.

•Cores are like disposable batteries 99% of the time. As the inner energy is used, the core obviously has less and less energy within it, eventually "burning out". The 1% is for people like channelers who can fuse and preserve certain cores.

•Core technologies are everywhere, but are a bit costly. I mean only low class and some low-middle class people live without powering up their life with cores. Fire cores can heat up a fire place better than coal (which exists), lightning cores can power a generator better than a motor (which exists), water cores can be used to efficiently water crops instead of waiting for the rain or wasting time getting freshwater from rivers (which exist). See what I mean? We have basic earth technology, but ALSO cores to make it better. However, most, if not all firearms have cores, which make them much more expensive than regular Earth rifles. Swords are about half and half. Also so far, I'm strictly speaking of elemental cores. Cores like kinetic cores are WAYYYY more expensive than elementals. A kinetic core the size of an egg would probably cost $1000 dollars on Earth and could fuel a single armor's shields for about a month, maybe less. So you see, it also varies core to core. If you ever have a specific core tech you want me to I've you the costs/feasibility of, let me know.

(And yes, lots of house hold appliances use them. Light cores are better than filament light bulbs, for example)

ello thought ah may as well throw mah hat into the ring, gonna go ahead and start working on a cs now but i was wondering something about the weapons and cores, and that was if it was possible for a weapon to make use of two core types at once, and if not could you have a weapon that at least holds two different core types

Just a heads up. I start school this week and I've had administrative matters to attend to throughout the weekend which explains my general absence.

Yes a weapon can use multiple cores, but it makes it much more expensive for each additional core slot. If you mean fusing the abilities of two cores by using them together, that would be really rare, as mixing the energies would cause a very unstable situation for someone that's not a Channeler. But weapons can have multiple cores that can be triggered separately - that's more plausible.

Yes they can force the shit out of people. Basically, when the void gate opens, the kage will escape and quickly begin scouting out a suitable host to survive within. The kages will most likely be in a simple form at that time - a ball of energy that can move and resembles a meteor in the sky. If it so much as touches you, BAM! Bonding time. You have no choice as the Kage's spirit is much stronger than a human's, but at the same time, know that the kages will be seeking individuals that they feel most comfortable binding too, for whatever the reason

It's cool, yo. As long as that doesn't mean you'll be inactive and disappear for long periods of time without warning, it shouldn't be a problem. Besides, it hasn't been that long, really haha

Yes, and he's making sure we are affected as little as possible by his random disappearance.

Not to be a party-pooper, but not everyone might enjoy the meme war. I personally don't mind but I'd hate to alienate anyone.
