Industrician

Exhausted, Zever let his head fall back into his neck. His body felt almost completely burned out. Every single cell seemed to be numb with fatigue, and even his eyelids struggled to fight off the approaching sleep. For a split second, his hand slipped from the inlet on the metal pipe before he startled and pressed it against it with renewed pressure.
"Zever, you want to switch? My shift doesn't start for another five minutes, but you look completely wasted!" a voice called from the side. He caught sight of a young woman. She was wearing dark blue dungarees with a white loose top underneath. The warm air on the factory floor brought sweat to her forehead and made her long hair, tied in a ponytail, shine.
"Thank you, Lina, but I'm fine. Just a few more minutes." he replied between clenched teeth. In fact, he would have loved to accept her offer, but he was depending on the extra overtime pay. The mere thought of the mountain of debt drove a lump down his throat.
"Are you sure?" she pushed her way into his field of vision and leaned against the metal pipe he was working on. She did it unobtrusively, though she had to know he would notice. He felt the pull on his own energy lessen a bit as she fed her own inside the machinery. With her second hand, she handed him a bottle of water, which he gratefully accepted and took a generous sip from. What really refreshed him, however, was the friendly smile on her pretty face.
"But don't overdo it. Especially at your age, you shouldn't be as short-tempered as the young people who think they can work for twelve hours without taking any time off," she accompanied the little side blow at his age with such a charming smile across her round face that it was impossible for him to return it with anything other than a short laugh.

In retrospect, he didn't know if it had been that laughter or his exhaustion or the butterflies in his stomach, he just remembered the feeling. In a tiny moment, the remaining energy drained from his body, a good half hour before he expected it. He still remembered thinking about his debt, causing him to hold onto the power instead of letting it go. By this time, Lina had fallen to her knees, laughter giving way to a pained scream as she was pulled against the metal pipe. The moment seemed to last forever. A hiss, a deep crack between their two hands on the screeching metal, then a flash of light. The last impression that burned into his eyes before a second flash sealed them forever was her picture-perfect face, with its narrow nose and brown eyes as she was pierced by the green light. Briefly, he thought it was like lines running under her skin before it abruptly became covered in calluses and shattered.

An industrician is described as a profession on Uras that holds the task of supplying most of the modern industrial processes with the necessary energy. In doing so, they consciously undergo acquisition and thus receive energetic powers, but learn only their most basic applications.

training

The training of industricians is in itself relatively simple and does not place very many expectations on the trainee. Basically, the first thing to mention is the acquisition of a supernatural ability, whether it be Energeticists, Combat Alchemists or Aurarians of life energy or learning magic is completely irrelevant. Theoretically, any energy can be used, however, life energy enjoys the most popularity.

The next step is to learn how to control and regulate the energy in question. Here, no advanced forces, such as the conscious change of form are rehearsed, but only the regulation of one's own energy is attuned. The goal of the entire training is to achieve perfection within this regulation. The training often takes place in large, private factories and trades, although in most cases the acquisition takes place through a state-sponsored process.

In most cases, training to become an industrician by human standards begins at age 14 and continues for up to two years. The better the apprentice's regulatory ability after this time, the better his or her chances of ending up with large, well-paying companies.

work

The work of industricians is often described as simple and mindless, however it requires an unimagined level of sensitivity. The employees have to pay attention to the change of their shifts, because most of the machines need a constant supply. Thus, the failure of a colleague or their uncontrolled discharges can present abrupt challenges to their colleagues. The shifts of most industricians last between 8 and 12 hours, depending on their own capacity. Generally, the longer a shift, the higher the pay per hour increases.

The activity of most industricians takes place standing or lying down. If their own ability to concentrate and manipulate allows, individual members of this profession may even pursue parallel personal interests, such as knitting or reading. However, this depends on personal arrangements with the employer.

spread and prospects

In the face of rapid industrialization on Uras, the prevalence of the profession of industrial driver is also increasing significantly. In 910, less than 0.1% of workers in the state of Asorat were working as industricians, estimates put this figure at 0.5% in 911. Optimistic estimates suggest that in ten years, more than 10% of all employees would be directly employed in the energy supply sector.

The profession of industricians can definitely be described as promising for the future. With each passing day, the need for energy is growing and it is hard to imagine everyday life in most metropolitan areas without it. Especially in Asorat, where the production of large quantities of goods before their quality, modern industry enjoys tremendous popularity.

risks

Most industricians will not be exposed to any great risk even in the course of decades of activity, however, a constant degeneration of one's own physical energy is to be assumed, since this is actually not designed for such a long-term release. This can lead over several years of activity to a physical restriction of the motoric function, as well as an impairment of the senses, which are linked to one's own energetic control.

In extremely few cases, so-called feedbacks can occur, where energy flows back into the user's body unchecked. However, these only come to light in the event of a combination of production errors and failure on the part of the industrician. In such cases, there can be ulcer-like buildups of energy in the body, as well as severe burns, though in most cases these can heal. However, there is a not inconsiderable risk of death for the person responsible.
