Re: New Racial Tech Traits Ideas

Actually, I prefer that technology not be allocated as a rigid racial 'trait' that no one else can possibly understand. It's completely illogical and unrealistic.

That depends on what the "technology" represents. If it is strictly technology, then what you say is correct. But if it is not necessarily a "technology", but more like a cultural trait, or something that represents an evolutionary step, it really would not be useable by other races. Races that have no aptitude what-so-ever for Psychic abilities would not be able to develop Psychic "technologies". Races that are not very spiritual would not be able to develop Religious "technologies". The same goes for Temporal. Crystalline and Organic are harder to justify, but it can be done. Think of those "technologies" more as features of the race, not actual "technologies".
