Technology
Technology within the universe is very extensive and central to the plot, going through many different advancements.
Elven Technology
Elven Technology goes through a drastic change, from simpler, rural times, to sprawling urban warfare.
It typically utilizes various metals (typically grey), precursor artifacts, and rudimentary eco harnessing; used for all kinds of every day needs, research and arts. After the metal head invasion, a sharp upturn in militaristic technologies occurs. Each major settlement has its own unique aesthetics.

Precursor Technology
Precursorian culture is incredibly technologically dependent, their inventions spanning from the grandiose to the small, helpful to incredibly convoluted and unclear in purpose.
It typically relies on Precursor metal (unknown if this is a made alloy of some kind, or from a different planet), and highly advanced eco manipulation. Tubing, wires, and siphons generally accompany the metal components to power eco throughout the machines, however technology powered with powercells don't seem to need this. There is also a plethora of rings, spheres and other levitating metal pieces, but it's unclear if this is aesthetic or functional. The same goes for the common snout face iconography found on various artifacts.
Their technology seems to be more for scientific research, and militaristic purposes than every day items, however the daily, every day life of the Precursors has been long lost to time. Some of the artifacts may also be religious, especially with regards to the numerous temples scattered through out.

Despite being an offshoot of Precursors, the Dark Makers have their own very specific technology, both in use, innovation, invention and aesthetics.
