Lumyr
Lumyr is one of the known kyrant types — exotic super-heavy elements with unusual properties found in the Lukyr system. It is a crystal-like material with vast light-amplification potential, making it the primary material used in energy weapons throughout Lukyr civilization.
Properties
- Crystal-like in structure
- Vast light-amplification potential — the basis of energy weapon technology
- Quantum entanglement with Alumyr — a Lumyr crystal is entangled with a corresponding Alumyr crystal; energy absorbed by the Alumyr is transmitted to the entangled Lumyr crystal at arbitrary distance via an "enigmatic" process
Uses
Lumyr's light-amplification property underpins energy weapon technology across the Lukyr system. The Lumyr Rifle — the precision weapon used to assassinate Lucas Taldo — demonstrates Lumyr in a combat application, firing a light-speed charge at its target.
The quantum entanglement with Alumyr means Lumyr crystals can receive energy redirected by their paired counterparts, which has implications for both weapon design and shielding technology.
