Pnunillion Weave

This Galatian bionanite technology was in widespread use by the beginning of the Fell War. It was adopted most by the military for several reasons, not the least of which was its ability to regenerate tissue on the battlefield. Pnunillion cells could be programmed to work together and to create biological as well as mundane materials, tools, and energy weapons. All of these features are controlled by the primary processor, which embeds itself next to nerve clusters in its host’s body, using them as a means of highly advanced communication. This connection allows the weave to “read the intentions” of its host. Generally delivered using a specialized transponder, this tool levels the field of combat for human armies, which often had to face otherworldly creatures capable of polymorphism, teleportation, astral projection, energy discharges, and electrical channeling. Pnunillion appears in the host as a colorful tattoo, often taking fractal shapes, patterns, or even letters. The size and depth of these tattoos are usually a measure of the potency of the effects that the weave offered.

Pnunillion’s power source is a carefully guarded secret. Rumors suggest that it is extra-dimensional, and especially advanced versions of this weave are capable of interfacing with what some Fell worlds refer to as the “supernatural” realm. Although both Galatian and Leng’gui cultures have discarded many mythological beliefs regarding the spirit world, they have also adopted others after advances in astral-biosciences proved two things definitively that were at odds with both colloquial views of spirits and limited classical scientific attempts to ignore evidence using purely material explanations.

• First, the living essence of a being is not only very real, but it is arguably more real than some dimensions to which it interfaces. Souls are multidimensional, exotic material patterns that, although they can be altered or reshaped, cannot be reproduced or created by any known technology. Consequently, the creation of a soul is universally considered the exclusive realm of the Creator – known as the One from whom all Souls originate.
• Secondly, the soul is a quantifiable, stable pattern of exotic energy that interfaces with material native to any dimension where it appears in high enough concentrations. Understanding of these facts has enabled advanced biological and technological structures to attach and respond to living intent at speeds and complexities that are simply not possible with traditional chemistry or mechanics alone.

Astral-bioscientists study these patterns that make up souls. Due to their more profound understanding of this form of physics, Pnunillion can operate with remarkable speed and demonstrate profound abilities to seemingly create and dispel material from and to nothing. Still, those who observe soul patterns in dense concentrations, such as those found in beings like the Gonago’lai and Seraphim, find that baffling and often contradictory abilities and features emerge. This observation leads to bizarre conclusions about the nature of the soul and the stigma associated with its study as a “spooky” science, despite any advances that the studies have contributed to technology.
