Editing Ourworld:Keltoi (section)

== Keltoi Nimhelioc (Alchemy) ==

The Keltoi have a certain aptitude with magic and the harnessing of it for mechanical purposes. They traditionally utilised flame lances (later developed into alchemical guns) in war, and have great elemental turbines that power their industrial machines. Their alchemical guns are feared and renowned. The three principal cities of the Republic are joined by a train network. Cities are filled with glowlamps and the rich and powerful are protected by guardian constructs. Even the poorest dockworker has glimpsed the mighty and terrifying iron juggernauts that lurk deep beneath the sea. Because their machines are powered by magic, not fossil fuels, Keltoi cities are surprisingly clean and hygienic and if the air is sometimes filled with static, then nobody complains. This wondrous magitech is restricted to the main cities on the east coast, and many a poor or provincial man has never glimpsed such things.

'''Sample Magitech Devices & Contrivances'''

'''Flame Lance''' 

These unusual contrivances, originally used by the Teleri, are traditionally utilised by Keltoi soldiers to harass enemy formations. They are 10’long rods made of a glimmering silvery metal. When gripped, they are suffused with a soft ruby light. They can shoot a concentrated beam of light up to 150, dealing 2D6 damage. They have effectively limitless charges and can be fired as many times as the wielder has attacks. 

'''Alchemical Musket'''

The Keltoi developed these from the flame lances of the Teleri. A long-ranged weapon that utilises percussion caps, the alchemical musket is used in support of the Keltoi frontline warriors. 

'''Iron Juggernaut'''

Monstrous machines of war, Juggernauts are essentially alchemically created submersible ships. They can fit a crew of 30 comfortably, 60 maximum. Internal wards ensure sea pressure doesn’t crush the hull, and runes also ensure breathing is possible. (It also makes the submariners immune to poisonous gases as a side effect)
