All-Terrain Na'Daoine Vehicles
Silentiun are naturally adept in nearly all environments, but since they were created by Maitre Na'Daoine after undergoing apotheosis how could they possibly traverse the world using nothing but their bodies? Even the species she used to belong to (humans) have their maritime fleets, airship fleets, train systems, cars and trucks - much less Immortals who fly upon great beasts, constructs, and flying treasures.
Na'Daoine vehicles come in many designs and varieties based on their size and function, but the most common are the individual vehicles which resemble an elongated capsule or missile with various retractile modes of transportation, the larger ensemble sized vehicle which can hold up to six Silentiun, and logistic vehicles which transport large amounts of materials or personnel. Occasionally vehicles of war show themselves, but only during conflicts of great danger to a Nest.
The main purpose of Na'Daoine vehicles is to act as transportation within any terrain (land, air, sea, or even underground) to compliment the race which can thrive in each of these environments. This is because even though Silentiun are at home almost anywhere, they're still limited by the power of their flesh and still have to rest (not to mention the vehicles are much faster than them to begin with). Even as Silentiun grow more powerful in cultivation (and can thus be much faster with far more stamina) they will either forge new vehicles for themselves or trade in for one from their Nest to keep up with their bodies.
These vehicles automatically connect to the Symbiotech within the Silentiun and can be controlled as if part of their own body. Furthermore they're equipped with powerful sensory amplifiers to detect the terrain and any threats on route as well as the weapons and shielding to handle or escape from powerful opponents. Essentially the vehicles of Na'Daoine have the ability to duplicate and amplify most, if not all, of a Silentiun natural advantages and are the transportation variant of the Power Armor state of Project Automaton.
Like all
Na'Daoine technology the core of their vehicles are created from
Silentiun silk before being refined with the best materials available for the purpose, enchanted with magic, inscribed with formations, and finally bound to their owners. Though this sounds simple, each part of the process is heavily dependent on the cultivation of the creator of the individual vehicle; higher quality materials can only be refined, more powerful enchantments can only be placed, and more profound formations can only be inscribed by more powerful cultivators resulting in several "tiers" of vehicle just like other treasures owned by cultivators. Even the way in which each vehicle is carried and bound to the owner depends on the creator's cultivation level, as normal cultivators can only create an item that can be branded with a mark of spiritual sense and kept within some form of storage treasure but the more powerful treasures can be bound by the soul and be directly stored within the dantians of the owner.
Inventor(s)
The original prototypes were created and improved on over time by Maitre Na'Daoine while she was still human as part of Project Automaton with all modern versions being modeled after Maitre's own vehicle.
Access & Availability
Though the production and use of
Silentiun vehicles are entirely monopolized by
Na'Daoine, nearly every individual within it's ranks owns at the very least a personal vehicle and every ensemble owns a larger vehicle to transport the entire group. Larger variants, though not rare, are usually controlled by each Nest and only used to transport large amounts of personnel or goods.
Complexity
Though primitive prototypes before the apotheosis of
The Progenitor can occasionally be found as collectibles within
Ihmisen Keh'to the modernized versions resemble most
Na'Daoine technology and combine all Na'Conairí in a perfect fusion making them far more complex than any
human technology within
Ihmisen Keh'to - only the Constructs created by cultivators specializing in that dao compare within greater
Maailma.
Discovery
Much like the rest of
Maitre's inventions, the vehicles of
Na'Daoine were originally created by combining different aspects of the
humans Conairí and were steadily improved throughout her time within
Ihmisen Keh'to before finally being modified to match
Silentiun biology and abilities.
