See why everyone is caught up in the new WAIV!"
WAIV, or "World Arcane Interweb Vibration" is a special macro-wave connected to the Source and flows throughout the physical world. When it touches matter, it passes through it and resonates, collecting and receiving "Data". These small parcels of information become a part of the larger collective WAIV, and can be transmitted or interpreted by specialized devices.
From the earliest COMMs units to the highly advanced WAIV/ CON, the technology that connects the world has pioneered the communications industry since its invention. Social media platforms, "Cloud" storage, and powerful user-defined MODDs have all improved the quality of the WAIV experience.
Join along as we take a look at WAIV Technology- from PADs to Consoles, we'll get an in-depth look at why WAIV devices are the most coveted in communications science and home entertainment products!

Discovery & Invention
The history of WAIV technology began when Meta-Scientists and Enchanters formed a small developer group, formerly known as Magi/COMMs. The technology for early COMMs involved messages sent on macro-waves to transmitters, which would decode the information in real time. While this often produced scratchy quality audio recordings, the Basic COMMs units were significant in the communication efforts of several War fronts at the time. With built-in transceivers and transmitters, these devices became useful in spreading messages quickly across accessible transponder channels.
COMMs were initially prone to wear and tear, losing signal range and lifespan over time. A new product was necessary to improve the quality of calls and messages. MagiCOMMs, forerunner of communications products, was tasked to solve the riddle of the better communications device. Inspired by a special group dedicated to the research and innovation of the newest devices, the company produced it's first ambitious project- the WAIV/NET.
The macro-waves used by COMMs were decidedly influenced by the subtle vibrations of a phenomenon known as the "World Arcane Interweb Vibration" as it interacts with matter; particularly, through means of electromagnetic radiation or the Aura. The waves bounce around and through, collecting "data" as it roams, which then joins the collective WAIV and can be interpreted by COMMs devices. WAIV/NET is the network of WAIV transponders and transmitters that are networked around the world and connected to vast towers, where they can collect and distribute information.
"Data" are the small parcels of information that collects together and forms the WAIV. By reading and decoding the data, it can be transmitted and received, or stored into a memory bank known as the "cloud core processor" (CCP) or simply "Cloud".
This effective device had an improved quality of calls and messages, now with storing systems for keeping important COMMs transponders, and an inbox to retain messages the user might have missed.. While there was still some static, the noise was reduced immensely. In addition, minor video and photo capture capabilities were discovered. Unfortunately, an issue that plagues all WAIV products still affects the manufacturing of WAIV I COMMs units, causing stalls and a slow initial reception of the product.
On top of that, minor user issues continued to accrue, until MagiCOMMs began looking at ways to increase the proficiency of its new mainline devices. PADs and Tablets were initial options, and are still popular for their economy. Eventually, once WAIV/ II hit the market, solving many of the minor bugs and issues with WAIV/ I, reception for the product improved. As the WAIV expanded to include new WAIV/ Sites and user created MODDs, MagiCOMMs saw a new future in their products.
To reflect the company's new standard, they finished their research and development projects with other nations and changed their name to reflect their new line of products. WAIV/CORP is the pilgrim on the frontier of the communications industry, leading the way towards a brighter future with WAIV technology!

Organization & Production
The discovery of WAIV as an energy can be found within the spells of various Cultures within the Epochs. From spells derived from Auramancers to the secrets held by Macromancers and the formulas of the Metamancers throughout the Eras, the patterns and spell lattices for WAIV technology existed at numerous points throughout Time. WAIV as a technology came much later; once MAGI-COMMs became WAIV/CORP, and developed the patents for the WAIV module products and other variants, the technology was integrated with the magic and became much more advanced.
Attuned to the subtle vibration of the world, WAIV/NET was the a pinnacle of success, as not only were devices produced at a factory standard, but it was easier to transmit Data straight into the devices of modern homes. The components required to make COMMs depends on areas of rich, volcanic activity, where the onxy and obsidian are formed by Geomancers and Verdemancers. This special quality to transmute the physical Source into raw components makes all Casters highly valued employees of WAIV/CORP and other such corporate entities.
Typically, Casters are well-known to maintain rights as Corporate Entity Owners (CEOs) of any given organizational structure. They understand the complex rituals involved with crafting these devices. While WAIV/CORP is the most popular and recognizable, other companies, such as WAIV/TECH, have also risen in popularity. Managed by powerful Corporate Agents, these entities create powerful devices that lead the world into a new industry of magical technology. Alchemists and Artificiers are also prized employees, as they are able to quickly construct and modify existing software.These companies are kept alive by aggressive promotional and marketing strategies.

"Time Crisis"
Deemed a catastrophic event that globally impacted nations, the "Time Crisis" is also known universally as the "WAIV Crisis" and has recently given many customers of these products pause. While few out right blame the companies of these products, customers and clients, stock holders, and millions of others all watched a dramatic change in the industry in the aftermath of this event. While many lost their lives, others were lost in Time, never to be heard from by their loved ones again; thus, these companies have had to withstand public ridicule despite their great advancements and the devices they have created.
In response, research & development into an advanced effort across Time to reclaim those lost souls has been considered and is currently underway. Known as Project: WAIV/ FINDERS, the corporations involved look forward to returning to a relative state of normalcy despite the event.
Until then, portals across Time have appeared, resulting in confusion and chaos. Visitors from out of Time, entities from other Worlds, and Doppelgangers are all known to use these means to travel between the realities of the Past and Present. It has been determined that Travelers can't proceed into the Future; there are currently no means.

WAIV Products
Standard COMMs, PADS & Tablets
These basic devices performs a single function rather well. COMMs are able to send and receive voice calls and mesages. PADs are able to access the WAIV and send or receive text messages or video, but not audio. Tablets blend the basic features but are notorious for incredibly long charge times (4 hours, 2 hour charge time).

WAIV/COMMs
The WAIV/ COMM is the most common form of WAIV device, as it is ergonomical as well as economical compared to other devices. It can call and send text or video, includes user-defined features and advanced predictive systems. The Ultra Deluxe models are the most expensive, but they give the user a wide variety of options.

WAIV/ Casters & Consoles
The WAIV/ Caster was once a rare model, as the film-quality of the video capture technology in its process made exceptional movies and clips. Now, it has been made into a handheld device, much more common and practical. The WAIV/ Consoles were also enhanced, turning what were old receivers into fully integrated WAIV devices, capable of similar functions as earlier WAIV devices with added improvements on the core design. People tend to either have a reception model, for home viewing, or a performance model, for WAIV interaction.

Nice article. I love the CEO = Corporate Entity Owner.
THANK YOU! : D That was actually a fun little detail! I looked it up because I had forgotten what it had meant, and it reads, "Cheif Executive Officer". Corporations will look slightly different in Arc Sagas and I thought the name could reflect that! TYSVM! Great day!
