### **Helius** -

An airship used as inexpensive public transportation from city to city. Can hold up to 100-200 passengers depending on the model

#### **Prices**

* **100 amas** - Short Distance
* **300 amas** - Long Distance

### **Amoras** -

Flying boat-like vehicles that are used for transportation. They are solar-powered and can go fairly quickly. They are used frequently by upper- and middle-class elves and demi-humans. They have two propellers that help it move similar to helicopters. They are very high-tech and costly to make, but no gas necessary. Though there are landing sites for them in most well-developed areas even in fairy kingdoms, full out transportation centers are not a huge thing in fairy kingdoms. Amoras are twice as fast as Heliuses.

#### **Prices**

* **300 amas** - Short Distance
* **400-600 amas** - Long Distance

### **Hover-boards:**

Skateboards without wheels essentially, that hover over the ground using solar technologies and allow for fun for younger beings. They do not go very fast though. They are 500 amas each.

### **Jumping Shoes:**

Shoes that can be purchased that are similar to jumping on a trampoline with every step. These are 200 amas.

### **Zoomies:**

Shoes that make you run slightly faster. 300 amas.

## Cooking

### **Fira:**

Similar to the oven with a stovetop, a solar-powered heating machine that cooks meat or produces within five minutes. There are also portable, smaller cookers called portable firas for more expensive.

### **Ice Box:**

A white cube that can be opened from the top that is electronically powered by solar energy that keeps food fresh.

## Hygiene

Plumbing exists similar to on Earth except waste is sent down a separate tube to be used as fertilizer for crops. Showers and baths function as normal but they are only in certain areas such as with demi-humans. Many fairies and elves prefer to bathe in waterfalls and springs.

Shampoo and toothpaste also exist except under the names: **Hair Cleanser** and **Teeth Cleanser. Armpit fragrance** is deodorant and comes in a large pack. It lasts for 12 hours.

**Shower Tube** - A shower head with a long tube that can be placed into any body of water. The water will be filtered and rain down on you as long as there's enough water.

**Clothes Washing Station -** There is at least one clothes washing + drying duo outdoor station in every town. In bigger cities, there are multiple. It works so quickly that you can just dump all your clothes in and they come out clean and dry within 5 minutes. A line forms behind it but never takes too long.

## Enrichment

Computers exist under the name of **Solar Box** and programming is simply called creating. There are games available on solar boxes and research sources but there are no videos or television shows invented.

Phones are not a thing, but people can message each other over Solar Boxes. They are not affordable to lower classes people. It is **700 amas** for a solar box and 900 amas for a **portable solar box** that is similar to the size of a psp.

## Virtuosa

This is a device with crystals from the Sun Elf Kingdom that uses the flow of the arcane energy to go through different sections of the box, causing different types of noises to combine these notes into new notes. Thus, the device can also be used to lower & heighten pitch and volume. Essentially, this is a magical dj set that is used in many dance clubs in Avalia, notably in Roshmi's upper class clubs.

## Location Senders

This comes with a board that has a map of Avalia on it. It has a tracker built into it. If you find someone else with a location sender, you can sync up your boards by putting them together until you hear a ping sound. Then you both must hold down a red button on the button until another ping sound confirms that you both consent to sharing locations. Now wherever you are, you can press a button and see the other person's location in Avalia for as long as you hold the button down.

## Transmission Bracelet

This is a gold bracelet with small red gem on the front. It is used for communication. Along the side of it are five buttons. The first is blue and this is the link-in button. When you are with someone who also has a transmission bracelet, you can sync them by putting the gems together and holding down the button for at least five seconds. One of the other buttons will light up, letting you know that this color is tied to the person you just synced with. The other buttons are purple, green, pink and orange. You can use each of these to link up to four other people. To call someone, just hold down the button that was designated to them until the gem glows dimly. The other person receiving the call will see their gem glow and the bracelet will vibrate their wrist. To accept, push down on the gem. A small hologram of each caller will appear to each other so that they can see each other's faces as they speak. To end the transmission, hold the gem down.

## Transmission Stand

(All leaders of the races have these in their castles/meeting rooms except orcs.)

This is a large stand for communication with a large purple gem on top of it. Along the side of it are 31 buttons. The first is blue and this is the link-in button. When you are with someone who has a transmission bracelet, you can sync the bracelet to the stand by putting the gems together and holding down the button for at least five seconds. One of the other buttons will light up, letting you know that this color is tied to the person you just synced with. The other buttons are various colors. You can use each of these to link up to 30 other people with transmission bracelets to the stand. To call someone, just hold down the button that was designated to them until the gem glows dimly. The person receiving the call will see their gem glow and the bracelet will vibrate their wrist and the stand will make a noise if being contacted. To accept, push down on the gem. A large hologram will appear to the person with the stand and a small one to the bracelet. To end the transmission, hold the gem down.

## Obedience Gems

These gems allow one to tame another living being by causing the target to feel mild to excruciating pain. These gems are separated by function. Master Gems and the Slave Gems. A master gem can be linked to more than one slave gem. Once embedded the slave gem will cause excruciating pain if tampered with. Master gems do not need to be embedded but must be within reach (some may hide their master gems within jewelry or embed them to prevent them from being stolen). Upon purchase, both gems will be charged with magic and linked together. Only the master gem's charge will deplete over time and when pain is exerted to the target from the gem. The master gem will begin to blink three days prior to depletion (though depletion could happen before the three days are up). Master gems can only be charged by black market vendors.

## Cast Spheres

***only in the most developed cities***

**Black:** The black sphere acts as a transceiver that captures the activity within an area where it is stationed. Usually placed high and centered in order to capture as much as possible. The black orb sends the live capture to the white spheres stationed in other locations within a city.

**White:** Once the white spheres receive an image from a black sphere, the white spheres project a large holographic image of the events captured by a black sphere. The spheres allow locals to witness events they are unable to attend themselves within their city. It's kind of like watching tv for the public, but you only have one channel with one program during certain times of the year. White spheres will also focus in on the most eventful things captured by the black sphere such as important announcements and funny moment

## Memory Glass

Enchanted glass with the ability to capture a moment (like a camera). The glass is held in a personalized frame and resembles a mirror. The user faces the Memory Glass at the image they'd like to capture and say "snap". Many people use the phrase "Say snap!" Before using the glass to when getting the image of a person. The memory glass is able to store multiple moments within it and can appear on the surface of the glass if the user thinks of the moment they've captured while holding it. Images can be printed onto paper or other surfaces professionally by a Memory Glass vendor without losing the image in the process. Once an image is captured in the glass, it cannot be removed, so just try not to remember a bad picture you snapped if you don't want it to surface. Memory glass can also be sold as 3D shapes. These are much more expensive but can capture an image and display more than one at a time like a prismatic collage.
