[semi-silly] Fenspace versions of X-Mas gifts for 'danes
12-24-2011, 11:53 PM
So, I got this thought in my head. What gifts that 'Danes wouldn't blink an eyelid at could be created by the Fen or Fen Tech?
(appologies for the relative mundanity of the suggestions.)
Cutlery and Knife sets made of stainless Battlesteel?
Glasses made of Transparent Aluminium, or for crystal glasses, transparent carbon?
Martian Red Porcelain?
Furniture made out of space-adapted wood?

Actually, I think they would blink at first at gifts like those, because their first thoughts when it comes to Fen is spaceships and technology.
Therefore... A GPS Navigator that you never have to update (because it does it all on its own), a computer with a low class AI to act as a digital assistant, etc...

Most likely, things that can only come from Fenspace.
Moonrocks.
Marsrocks.
Genuine Martian 'Life'
Model spacecraft that actually fly.

I've always had in mind creating a fun series of autonomous drones modeled after popular (and rare) BAT ships... they'd have low-class AIs and be armed as well. They'd be made primarily as expensive toys/pets... and are perfectly capable of defending themselves as well as hearth-and-home.
