The Age of Technology

In the successor Age, the people of the Demiurg were comfortably resided in their homeworld, and they thus went about tinkering into higher pleasures and faculties. Tinkerers they were called, for it all started with experimentations of small and exquisite gears and the making of clockwork toys for the young children of the Demiurg. The Tinkerers went about their business with a strange devotion given the main view of perception of that of a frivolous art by the majority of the Demiurg populace. It turned out they were busy with an idea sparked by the greatest of them, the first Tinkerer himself, Kazador Weldenmar. And that was, in many ways the masterwork of the Tinkerers, the Living Mechanism, a Clockwork toy that ran on its own gears through the sheer delicacy of its interlocking gears, a mechanism that ran on a power all of its own, thus mimicking the motive power of real life. Through his discovery of electricity, the first Living Mechanical Clockwork toy came to be powered, one that didn't run on a limited lifespan as it is with other clockwork wind-up toys. This would later apply to many of the technological inventions of that age, like the Gyrocopter and the Land Train. Thus Kazador is also known as the Soulspark Inventor.

With the advent of electricity and the fulfillment of the masterwork of the Living Mechanism, Kazador Weldenmar founded the "Living Mechanism" Guild of Engineers. The Engineers were the offspring of the Tinkerers, they were the ones to apply the currents of electricity into designed machines of technology, and were responsible for their production. Above that rank, the Mechanicians were senior to the Engineers, and they were more involved in the gears and mechanisms of the inner workings of the electric motors of these machines, thus possessing a level of expertise above the mere construction of the machines. The Tinkerers, became the name for the ultimate rank for the Guild itself, in homage to their roots and legacy as being founded by the tinkering of "mere" Tinkerers. The metal of note during this age was the Alloy, refined and tempered by the Chemists of the "Golden Elixir" Guild, produced for its conducting abilities, which is required in the generation of electricity, the mystical motive power that is responsible for many of the great inventions of that era, by the “Living Mechanism” Guild in their Lightning Factories..
