Piezomotonics

	PIEZOMOTONIC CERAMIC (Homebrew, Magitech Artifact Component)
Originally discovered in a failed geomantic experiment, piezomotonic materials have two properties that are peculiar to them; they generate minute amounts of Essence when mechanical stress is applied to them, and when that same kind of Essence is fed into them, they produce consistent and predictable vibrations based on the strength of the essence flow. From the study of those materials, a method was deviced to create a ceramic that mimics its effects. While this ceramic is both dense and heavy, they have many uses, primarily in Artifacts that involve the direct conversion between mechanical force and Essence. Larger plates can also see use in suits of armour, as their weight offers plenty of protection, in addition to the Essence they generate as they are struck.


	REACTIVE PIEZOMOTONIC ARMOUR (Homebrew, Magitech Artifact, Rating Variable)
Based on the properties of piezomotonic materials, these suits of armour are made to absorb the force of an impact against it, converting it into usable motes of Essence for its wielder. As the piezomotonic ceramic plates that make up the armour is very heavy, even normal attunement can only do so much to lighten the load of the suit. However, as a consequence of that weight, they are also very effective at preventing damage.
