Delten Technocracy
Back Story
The Myth of Delten Telepathy
- Following the outbreak of the Magnate War, the League was faced with a troubling realization, they could not break the encryption codes used by the Magnate Fleet. To be more precise, it was not so much that they could not break the encryption codes as they could not actually discover the particular frequences that were being used to coordinate the fleet movements. This led to the general belief among the basic ranks that Delten fleets were telepathic and capable of coordination with a thought.
- Between captured prisoners and recovered bodies, it was learned that this wasn't necessarily the case, but during the peace talks mediated by Solomon, there was a resurgence as the Delten delegation rarely spoke save to make an ending statement that sounded like it had been discussed many times over. In an effort to help heal the schism fueled by years of warfare, the Delten Technocracy decided to provide detailed schematics of their genetic modifications to make them seem more Human. Whether this worked or not is up to each individual to decide.
The Truth of Delten Mental Communication
- Delten Mental Communication could be simply called telepathy; however, that is an inaccurate and incomplete understanding of what it is actually going on. Delten Mental Communication, henceforth refered to as DMC, is actually much more than telepathy. Not only does DMC allow contact between two individuals, it is easily scalable to allow for multiple interactions between multiple individuals. This can also be scaled even further using Central Nodes - to be discussed at a later point - to regulate the DMC network in such a way that an entire population connected to the node can communicate with each other. This scales up even further to communication between the Nodes with the Central Processing Hub - also to be discussed later.
- This ability to communicate with technological devices is the biggest benefit of the DMC. This was also the original intention by the designer, Richard Delten. This communication has allowed for advancement in interface technology. For a person augmented with the DMC modification, accessing any technological device is as easy as slightly concentrating on the task, like lifting up an arm. Further more, the only limit to how fast information can be accessed is the constraints of how fast the user is able to interpret the data and inquire for more.
