A motivator is a device that replicates abilities from an Epic's power set.
Function
Motivators are created by harvesting the cells of dead Epics.[1] These cells are stored in the motivator, which releases various powers when exposed to different electrical currents.[2] Motivators are responsible for keeping the cells of Epics alive, which includes feeding them, regulating their temperature, and dealing with any produced waste.[2]
Examples
In Firefight, David Charleston uses a motivator called a Spyril to move quickly between the rooftops of Babilar.[3]
Trivia
- Epic mitochondrial DNA, the key ingredient in all motivators, is used as high-level currency between the Reckoners and arms dealers.[1]
- Any given piece of Epic-based technology requires a motivator to function.[3]
