Tech Cabal for the Dark Imperials

Tech Cabal for the Dark Imperials.

Techno Mages of the Cabal did not invent or improve, but protect what was there. They did so by codifying technical manuals. The codes were copied, altered or lost and each generation more tech was non reproduceable. Engineers became servants to the Techno Mages and were forbidden to understand the code languages. Only allowed to work of decoded maintenance instructions. Instructions that in itself became more and more ritualistic and less and less practical. The Tech Cabal broke into factions and faded just as their society. Several factions developed. Most of them lording over bits and pieces of old Imperial Tech. There are two exceptions, the Cripple-Techs and the Tech Savants.
