- Animii Addition - Automaton ‘Nervous Systems’ — An Ingot of Photite, ready to be worked! — Lore Treating Cat’s Eye, Heat Sight, & Arcana Flow to certain metals allows the heightening of touch for Animii-based Prosthetics & Automatons. Due to the limitations on what metals are able to take on properties from the potions below, it’s often worked into a thin mesh to wrap the plates of the automaton or construct- though making an automaton’s plating out of these metals entirely is possible. These materials will work so long as it’s somehow connected to a Gearheart or Intelligence Module, often in the form of wiring in a manner that crudely mimics the nervous system. — General Usage These metals must be implemented in an Automaton/Animii machine or prosthetic to serve their function by being wired to the Gearheart/Intelligence Module in some manner. While implementing them on smaller automaton devices is possible, they require an external means of communicating their state in order to be useful like an automaton's voicebox alongside being linked to a Gearheart or Intelligence Module. The potency of the Intelligence Module may also limit how much the device can communicate, following the official Animii post's Tier system. They also must be exposed in some manner to work, meaning clothing or armor will impede a construct’s or prosthetic’s ability to feel much like a regular person nor can they be placed on the interior of a construct’s plating to feel things outside. It may be necessary to run a wire along the interior of the craft, however, to link up with the Gearheart or Intelligence Module. They also share their parent metal’s weight and durability, making Neuroum the weakest given it’s magegold base, & Photite Metal the toughest of the three being mainly composed of nickel. — Creation The creation of these metals is a simple process- simply heat up the metal once you have made it into a part that is suitable and quench it in its corresponding potion- letting it sit there for a narrative day. Reforging is possible, but will follow standard reforging rules found in the Official Material Compendium. Colorstone may also be added to dye it, though must be applied prior to quenching. A single potion’s worth of Cat’s Eye/Heat Sight/Arcana Flow will be enough to make a single limb’s worth of metal. If worked into a mesh, one potion’s worth can be used to cover an entire automaton. If used on T1-T2 Automatons, it can be used on up to 4 separate creations. Redlines - 1 potion’s worth of Cat’s Eye, Heat Sight, or Arcana Flow will be enough to make 1 automaton limb’s worth of plating/wiring. If worked purely into a mesh, it may be used to cover a full automaton. If used on T1-T2 Automatons, 1 potion can be enough to be used in 4 separate constructs EXCLUDING prosthetics. - Are all considered COMMON recipes, requiring both an active Alchemy FA & Automaton/Animii Smithing FA to be made. - NOT required to be used in an automaton, but must be implemented in one in order to be useful. Otherwise they are just expensive variants of their base materials. - If any potions used in the creation process are shelved, the corresponding metal will no longer be able to be forged. — Photite - Photosensitive Metal Nickel quenched in Cat’s Eye Potion - (Light-Dependant Touch) — Thermaldite - Thermosensitive Alloy Bronze quenched in Heat Sight Potion (Temperature, Heat-Dependant Touch) — Neuroum - Neuro-sensitive Composite Magegold quenched in Arcana Flow Potion (Magic-Dependant Touch) — OOC Reasoning References Credits PrimaQuorum - Gave valuable input on Neuorum, suggested that it should test not the category of a magical item but rather the potency of the magic in it (tiers). -
Anyone interested in playing automatons within my guild is welcome to message me. The design, the role, and the gadgets are all somewhat up to you. Additionally, the Brotherhood of the Hidden Blade will accept you into its membership. as well as other weapons like swords, daggers, and so on. (My Discord is vintagegermanium)
