  • Technomancy is a type of 'magic' used by synthetic witches.
  • The term technomancy refers to an imaginary or fictional category of magical abilities that affect technology, or to magical powers that are gained through the use of technology. It is a portmanteau of technology and -mancy, an etymologically dubious suffix that is used in magical sciences to refer to specific types of fortune telling known as divination (-mancy is derived from the Greek manteia meaning divination). An early appearance of the term can be found in Steve Martindale's 1990 short story "Technomancy" in the magazine Aboriginal Science Fiction.
  • Technokinesis is the recurring skillset of Slicers. * Tier I: Mental interfacing; "talking to computers" * Tier II: Controlling non-computer machinery * Tier III: Controlling technological matter itself
