Mechs are the main method through which the various characters in TTG utilize Favor

Meditation[edit | edit source]

When originally created as a martial art in Pride, Mech Combat was fought using mechs created by meditating. This was an extremely difficult task, and required a great deal of concentration to craft anything more complex than a melee weapon and some armor. But given time, experts could form mechs that actually lived up to the name. Sleeping Bear is considered a genius for his extremely complex mech design, which he crafted entirely through meditation.

Divination System[edit | edit source]

To make mechs more accessible, the Diviner and his wife, created a system to allow for more precise control over mech design. By taking a small bit of Favor from a person, it can be programmed directly in the Divination System. Once a mech design is finalized, the programmed Favor is injected back into the person it came from, with the new design rapidly spreading throughout their dream space and overwriting the previous one. This system also comes with some failsafes and safety features to reduce the risk of injury to the pilot. Most notable among these is what's know as the acceleration glitch. When rapidly accelerating, a Divination-based mech will momentarily phase into the space between space, careful execution of this technique can allow a skilled pilot to effectively teleport short distances.
