Zarovan Capacity (ZC)
The Zarovan Capacity (ZC), discovered by the Zavechech family, is the standard unit of measurement used to determine the maximum amount of Bleed energy an item can safely contain and channel. It quantifies the potential of an item to be enchanted, taking into account both the material composition and the design intricacies.
Calculation: The ZC value of an item is determined by its material properties, size, and the complexity of the rune network it can support. Items made from materials with higher Bleed affinity, like certain rare metals or mystical crystals, have higher ZC values.
Where: ZC is the Zarovan Capacity. MA stands for Material Affinity, a numerical value representing the material's inherent ability to hold magical energy. CE represents Complexity of Enchantment, quantifying the complexity and power of the intended enchantment. V is the Volume of the item, considering that larger items might have a higher capacity for holding enchantments.
This formula suggests that the Zavechech Capacity of an item depends on the material's affinity for magic and the complexity of the enchantment, inversely proportional to the item's size. Higher material affinity and more complex enchantments increase the ZC, while larger items might have a diluted effect due to their size.
Limitations: Every item has a maximum ZC rating. Exceeding this capacity can lead to unstable enchantments, potential backfires, destruction of the item, or even death of the user.
Customization: The ZC system allows customers to understand and choose the extent of enchantments an item can safely hold, facilitating a degree of personalization in the enchantment process.
Professional Assessment: Determining an item's ZC requires expertise in both the Bleed and material sciences, a service that Zavechech Industries provides as part of their process.
Resonant Universal Nexus Enchantment
AKA RUNE
Functioning of RUNEs
Each rune functions similarly to a transistor in electronics, but instead of electricity, it channels and modulates the Bleed. When an item embedded with a rune is used, the rune activates, manipulating the Bleed to produce a specific effect based on its design and the motion of the Bleed. As the Bleed flows through the rune, it carries with it two things; information and energy. This flow is intricately controlled by the rune's design, determining how the Bleed's energy is utilized – whether for offensive, defensive, or utility purposes. Runes can be activated either passively, by the mere presence of the Bleed (ala a Lense attuned to the Rune), or actively, requiring specific actions or conditions (like a command or gesture).
Creation of RUNEs
RuneSmiths: The creation of runes is the domain of highly skilled technomancers, known as RuneSmiths. These individuals possess deep knowledge of both Bleed theory and technological principles, allowing them to craft runes that effectively integrate the two. The process begins with the design of the rune, which is a complex task requiring knowledge of the Bleed, and the intended function of the rune. This design dictates how the Bleed will flow and thus, be modulated.
Choosing the right material for inscribing the rune is crucial. The material must be conducive to both Bleed and technological integration, often involving rare or specially treated metals that are commonly suffused in the Bleed. RuneSmiths then enchant these materials, embedding them with specific properties. This step often involves intricate rituals and the use of advanced technological and technomagical tools to ensure precision.
Once created, runes undergo rigorous testing to ensure they function as intended. Calibration may involve adjusting the Bleed flow, refining the design, or even re-encoding certain aspects of the rune. The final step involves integrating the rune into the desired product. This step requires careful consideration of how the rune will interact with the product's other components and functionalities.
