In the SAGA-6 setting, Technomagic is a type of magic that harnesses the immense powers produced by the Transentian machines and their energy source, Uranium. Technomagic had been developed by the Alliance's head alchemist Alexej Septimus. Uses include Auto-Mailing, spell-casting machines, energy generators that give of energy that can be used by mages instead of solely relying on their own Mana, soul transfer and, recently, Nanite/Uranium infusion.

Devices and Techniques based on Technomagic

Magichines

Machines tht power magic are commonly called Magichines.

Hex

A steam-powered machine that has three arms and can cast spells. It can do this much faster than any human mage. Spells include Water, Mass Water, Ice, Mass Ice, Fire, Mass Fire, Thunder, Mass Thunder, Earth, Mass Earth, Wind, Mass Wind, Venom, Dazzle and others.

Arch-Hex

Called the "mechanic alternative to an archmage", Arch-Hex's spells are much more powerful. It is powered not by an ordinary, coal-burning steam engine, but Uranium. Spells include all Greater and Mass spells except for Light and Darkness. It can also cast status magic, Burst and Radiate, all of which it can cast much more effective than a human magus.


Octiropus

Octiropuses, named after the octopus and Octirone, the color of magic, are devices that can be strapped on the back by a magus. Six arms protrude from the device, imitating any spell the wearer casts. This gives a total of four spells with each spell that is cast - one from the wearer, the others from the machine.
