College Cult Graviticus

High Fabricator Davos Phar established this sect within the
Lathe Worlds in an attempt to re-create some of the wondrous
technologies found on Mars. The College Cult Graviticus
operate and maintain grav-plate technology, ranging from
the relatively small plates found in Space Marine Land
Speeders up to the massive decks of the Imperial Navy,
and the even larger Suspensor Forges of Lathe-Hadd. The
unique gravitational properties of the Lathe System provides
a particular importance for the College Cult Graviticus, and
it is from their ranks that many Suspensor Magos have been
raised since the Calixis Sector’s founding.
It is common for the College Cult Graviticus of the Lathe
Worlds to work with Explorator fleets, as many devices and
conveyances suitable for surveying worlds contain grav-plate
technology, such as the rare and agile Lathe-pattern speeders.
Many of the re-discoveries of the Explorator fleets have assisted
the College Cult Graviticus in making grav-plates more widely
available, and the Lathe Worlds are one of the premier locations
for the manufacture and refurbishment of this rare technology.
==The Litanies of Levitation==
The College Cult Graviticus in the Calixis Sector have
developed their own variations of the tech-rituals
needed to properly prepare and activate grav-plates. An
incomplete translation from the original techna-lingua
is kept on record in the Tricorn Palace on Scintilla:
//Strike the rune of activation to rouse the machine-spirit//
It is by the will of the Omnissiah that the plate acquires energy
It is by the energy of the plate that the machine acquires activation
It is by the activation of the machine that the Omnissiah speaks
That the plate acquires function
That the function acquires velocity and altitude
That the grav-plate then rises
Oh, arise, arise!
It is by the will of the Omnissiah that the grav-plate now functions.
//All praise the machine-spirit!//
