Hextech is a groundbreaking magic-based technology that utilizes runes to channel the power of magical gemstones known as Hextech Gemstones. These gemstones serve as a conduit for arcane energy, enabling the creation of advanced devices that harness this power. The primary application of Hextech technology is to enhance and amplify the capabilities of those who do not naturally possess arcane abilities, particularly individuals from the cities of Piltover and Zaun.
Developed over time, Hextech has revolutionized both societies, with Piltover using it to advance their technological marvels and economic prosperity, while Zaun often turns to Hextech for practical solutions to their industrial needs. The Hextech Gemstones are often extracted from the Shimmering Depths, where they are carefully crafted and shaped for use in devices ranging from automated machinery to weaponry.
While Hextech is celebrated for its power and versatility, it also comes with potential risks. The manipulation of magical energies can lead to unintended consequences, including dangerous side effects if the gemstones are mishandled or overused. This has led to a bitter rivalry between Piltover and Zaun, as the two cities compete for control over Hextech resources and innovations, with Piltover seeking to maintain strict regulation and Zaun favoring more reckless and unregulated experimentation.
In addition to its functional use, Hextech also holds a more mystical significance for the people of these regions. The gemstones themselves are often considered treasures and symbols of power, and their origins are steeped in the mysticism of the arcane arts. As such, they are closely guarded by those who seek to use their abilities for personal or political gain.
