Vitaetech

Includes food production, living architecture, land restoration, and other Vitae-related Aethertech.

Farmbed

Farmbeds are raised garden beds, magically enchanted to support crops in hostile environments. Their composting enchantments help sustain fertile soils by breaking down organic matter nearly ten times faster than natural soil. Crops grow three to four times their normal rate, producing abundant harvests in environments where farmland is scarce or unavailable. Farmbeds serve as a cornerstone of subterranean and underwater agriculture for Dwarven and Merfolk communities.

Growth Totem

Growth Totems are stone or wooden totems that can accelerate plant growth (3-5 times faster) and yield exceptionally bountiful and nutritious crops when exposed to sufficient Earth, Air, and Fire Aether. Driven into the ground, these totems spread vines, establishing a localized area of enhanced Nature about the size of a small garden. They are particularly valuable to communities living in desert environments that often have limited farming options.

Saddlesuit

Saddlesuits are vine-like saddles that instinctively wrap around the mount and rider to form a shared bond. Trained riders can equip Saddlesuits to their battle mounts, enabling them to utilize the full range of the mount's athletic powers. This makes elite battle mounts much more effective in combat, since they are no longer restricted to maneuvers that would throw the rider off balance. Furthermore, Saddlesuits also allow the rider to direct the mount with much greater precision, speed, and control than is possible using mundane methods.

Aethervine

Aethervines are prestigious vine weapons wielded by adventurers known as "Slingers." These artifacts contain versatile, living vines that can be fired at a distance, grow and recoil, bind and grapple, manipulate objects, move with their own strength, and act on their own accord to facilitate swift, spider-like combat maneuvers. Mastery of Aethervines requires high athleticism and a deep proficiency in Nature magic, reflecting the Slingers' rigorous training.

Spider Tank

Spider Tanks are 8-foot or 12-foot tall vehicles, designed with an enchanted wooden frame that moves like a spider. Pilots form a symbiotic Nature link with the tank to be effective in combat. They are fast, precise, quiet, extremely durable, and capable of self-repair in environments with concentrated Nature. Only eight Spider Tanks exist: five 8-foot "mini" models and three 12-foot models. Two are stationed in Sanctum, three in Haven, and another three are stationed together in Riven.

Due to the value and destructive capabilities of the Spider Tanks, they are reserved for highly elite, specialized adventurers known as the Spider Pilots. These pilots work together in teams of four, two per Spider Tank, to hunt down demons within their designated territory. Multiple pilots are assigned to Spider Tank duties to ensure they are operating around the clock.

Underbrusher

Underbrusher, usually worn as bracelets or anklets, causes nearby undergrowth to untwist, unwind, pull back, and brush away. This mitigates many traveling complications in jungles, forests, woods, wetlands, and other areas of highly saturated Nature Aether. Stronger versions allow users and their nearby companions (5 or so meters) to travel with relative ease.
