METAPHAZE, World of Magic

Theory of Mechanical Advantage

Ulysius Asimov

Reading this text, you find the following information interesting.

Inspired by his travels to far away lands and adventures abroad, Ulysius Asimov brought that knowledge of devices and apparati to life. He created a magical device whose sole purpose is to provide "power" to devices that make use of that power.

The devices utilize his magical power module to do work. Depending on the size of work to be done, the power devices required would be combined to provide that power.

Depending on the number of devices combined, various amounts of time could be expected for the duration of power provided. The dynamic advantage to these power devices is their ability to recharge themselves after being used for a period of time.

Metaphaze does not allow mechanical technology devices to function. It has something to do with the magic prevalent in the land.

(Like lazers, pistols, and the like, you the reader of course do not recognize any of these strange devices listed in the text)
