Editing LoGaS-Infinity's Call:Stair (section)

== Technology and Powers ==
The nature of the Grand Stair limits technology. Signals cannot pass through Doors to Gossamer worlds, and even point-to-point technology like radio ('walkie-talkies') has its range significantly lessened. Powered items lose their charge quickly, and power-producing items are uncharacteristically weakened. In many areas of the Stair, it is worse. Some stretches of the Grand Stair cause technology (including non-mechanical tech such as chemical devices) to fail completely, while in others they work only to a limited degree.

Smaller devices with self-contained usage behave normally within these constraints, but the larger or more advanced the item, the more likely it is to fail. Most Gossamer Lords rely very little on technology while on the Grand Stair. Devices with few moving parts are best - a sword is a sharp piece of metal with a handle even in the most unwelcoming areas of the Stair. Some Gossamer Lords invest a portion of their own power into a signature item, making it resistant (but not immune) to such interference. Those seeking to acquire a similar item should seek out the Agora.

The greater powers tend to function normally within the Grand Stair, though even they cannot destroy it or make significant changes. Only a few beings can change the Grand Stair itself, including the one Gossamer Lord that refers to himself as the Lord of the Grand Stair.
