-Energy Technologies are the various systems that help power the world of Aloria. Varied in scope and seniority, some of these technological feats are far more common and have been used for centuries; alternatively, others may be cutting-edge and innovative. These technologies often rely on the natural elements such as wind or water.
+Mechanical Technologies as the word implies involves any technology that makes use of physics and engineering to function. This includes feats that make use of objects such as gears and pulleys but also technologies that make use of the elements such as wind or water. This can range from handheld tools such as crossbows to airships and windmills. This category is comprised of constructions of strictly mundane nature.

-War and Weaponry Technologies have granted Alorians ruthlessly efficient capabilities to wage war over the centuries. They began as crude creations and have been refined over the centuries, exponentially increasing in their ability to exact destruction. These technologies tend to be state secrets or remain localized within certain regional powers.
+Arcane Technologies are artefacts that are either entirely arcane in nature or hybrids of mundane mechanisms and magic. These may range from ancient enigmatic workings found in ancient ruins of the Allorn Empire to cutting edge contraptions that are found across gifted cultures such as Qadir Mechanisms.

-Crafting Technologies have helped Alorians for centuries by assisting as a tool to breathe life into creative ambition. They combine aspects of the other technologies but also the ideas of the six simple machines. The most commonly seen are the different forging techniques blacksmiths use across the world.
+Technological Developments categorise what doesn’t fall under a single object, but rather a concept and a field of their own. These technologies are studies of their own and transcend borders and even races. This category includes techniques and ideas that commonly manifest across the world.
