TechnoMage: Return of Eternity is an Action RPG by German developer Sunflowers Interactive that was released on PC in 2000, and later ported to the PlayStation in 2001.The game takes place in the world of Gothos, a fantasy world that overcame a war against evil many centuries ago, at the cost of the OldOnes, an ancient race of humans, becoming divided between two races, a group of magic users called the Dreamers, and a group who believe in the power of technology known as the Steamers. The two races chose to minimalise interaction with each other, due to a belief that the mixing of magic with technology is dangerous.The game has you take control of Melvin, the son of a Steamer-Dreamer couple, a union that is traditionally prohibited. Melvin grew up in Dreamertown with his mother, taking lessons in herbalism from Rissen, his druid uncle. Due to a disaster, Melvin soon finds himself embarking on a journey across Gothos, and ends up fighting with the forces of evil across the world, meeting Talis, a girl born of a similar union to his own parents, and learning the truth of the past along the way.The gameplay is done from a top-down perspective, not unlike The Legend of Zelda series, with 3D environments mixed with 2D sprites. Weapons and spells are the primary way to combat with enemies, along with tools for utility purposes and defensive equipment to help withstand enemy attacks. Across the eight worlds of Gothos, gameplay features combat with various enemies, meeting various NPCs and helping them out, and solving puzzles scattered throughout. | |

Title Drop: Throughout the latter half of the game, the TechnoMage title is used to refer to Melvin quite a few times, and books explain the process known as the Return of Eternity. Right before the final battle, both parts are dropped in quick succession, as Melvin declares himself to be the TechnoMage and states his intention to complete the Return of Eternity. | |

Magic Is Rare, Health Is Cheap | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_1d46fe35 | comment |
Magic Is Rare, Health Is Cheap: Zigzagged, mana potions are rarer than health potions, and Melvin does have much less mana points than hit points, but once the mysticism stat reaches 7 (something that can be achieved in four level ups minimum, seven maximum), Melvin will gain the power of Regenerating Mana, which makes it a lot easier to rely on spells, especially since the rate of regeneration will increase with each point in the stat. | |

Faux Action Girl | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_40217655 | comment |
Faux Action Girl: Talis ends up being one of these. The manual mentions her being a master of the sling and other weapons, and also having more developed mental faculties than Melvin does. She also does mention her sling in her introductory scene. Despite this, in the game itself, she's never seen using the sling or any other weapons, figuring out anything, or casting a spell, all of which Mel constantly does. While one could argue she did have some off screen action in the Canyon, she spends the majority of the final three worlds as a Damsel in Distress, and after being rescued, stays out of the action regardless. | |

Shut Up, Hannibal!: Dagomar tries to bluff about having already subverted the shield generator to convince Melvin to give up, as well as mentioning his kidnapping of Talis. Mel responds by calling said bluff, and revealing that he had already rescued Talis while Dagomar was waiting in the Ruins, before declaring himself as the TechnoMage who will complete the Return of Eternity, and offering Dagomar one last chance at mercy. | |

Damsel in Distress: Talis falls victim to this twice. At the start of the Tower, a bridge collapses under her, leaving her trapped in a ravine until Melvin frees Ar-Khan and heads to her rescue. Early into the Volcano, Dagomar shows up to kidnap her, planning to use her to activate the shield generator. Melvin is able to rescue her just outside The Very Definitely Final Dungeon. | |

Elemental Powers: Most of the spells learned throughout the game are elemental in nature. Playing with Fire: The first spell is Fireball, which grants Melvin the ability to launch fireballs from his hand. An Ice Person: The second spell, Ice Claw, allows him to freeze his enemies solid. Blow You Away: Viper's Vortex, the third spell, gives Mel the ability to summon a tornado. Shock and Awe: The spell Lightning is used by Mel to shoot lightning from his hand. Dishing Out Dirt: The final spell is Earthquake, and Mel uses it to cause earthquakes. | |

Magic Versus Science | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_511728ae | comment |
Magic Versus Science: The initial premise of the game revolves around the outspoken yet ultimately harmless enmity between the magical Dreamers and the scientific Steamers. This rivalry turns out to be the subconscious segregation resulting from a not-so-harmless implosion of a Precursor civilization, brought about by their tampering with a mixture of magic and technology which eventually spiraled out of control. | |

Plot Coupon: The Crystals of Eternity are collected throughout the game, giving Melvin visions about their purpose, which is to power a shield generator created by the OldOnes, except for the final crystal, which was used to imprison Dagomar in a stasis field. The final battle has Mel put the crystals back in their place to reactivate the shield generator and imprison Dagomar again. | |

The chairman of the council tells Mel that the councillers can assist him with "the operation of the game", and Danny's quest ends with him saying he's rewarding Mel with experience points. Early spells and tools will also be introduced by the character granting them saying to use the "spell button" and "tool button" respectively. | |

Giant Space Flea from Nowhere | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_902fa0b4 | comment |
Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: The boss of the Canyon level is a bizarre, spherical, floating machine with four blue eye-like lenses that blink, along with four arms (three raptor-like claws connected via electrical tethers and one industrial flamethrower on a mechanical appendage). Nothing ever hints at the nature or origins of this thing (just like the Hover Board which even allows Melvin to fight it in the mines) nor is it ever mentioned afterwards. With that being said, its location and looks strongly imply it to be a more active remnant of OldOne machinery. | |

Elves Versus Dwarves | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_9a08517a | comment |
Elves Versus Dwarves: Though arguably short of outright racism, the passive conflict between the pointy-eared, light-skinned, slender-bodied magic-users (Dreamers) and the swarthy, squat, corpulent engineers (Steamers) has noticeable shades of this. Ironically, these two humble cultures used to be a single civilization in the first place, before the aversion to magic-technology fusions resulting from their fall led to a distinguished co-evolution into the two polarised peoples we see in the present day. | |

Giant Spider: At the end of the Hive, Melvin encounters such a specimen, which he needs to kill in order to proceed to the next level. | |

| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_9cb3e22e | comment |
Interface Spoiler: The visions of the shield generator show it's powered by four Crystals of Eternity, and Melvin assumes he has them all once he collects the fourth one. The inventory however shows an empty slot in the area the Crytals are displayed, spoiling the existence of a fifth Crystal. | |

Lizard Folk | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_a04eb363 | comment |
Lizard Folk: The Shach are somewhere between this and Snake People, being generally reptilian humanoids characterized by a hissing drawl at random points in their speech. Contrary to most portrayals of either fantasy species the Shach seem to embody, they are completely pacifistic and invariably engage in professional trade. Their culture seems to be semi-nomadic, as Melvin encounters several Shach going about their commerce business throughout Gothos, but they center around a subterranean town located on a volcano island, aptly called "Shachtown". Their facial features are mostly concealed by bags tied around their heads, which either serve cosmetic purposes in a world of distrustful humans or as respiratory aids away from their home climate. | |

Treacherous Advisor: Dagomar is first introduced as a mentor for Melvin, revealing what Melvin's heritage means and providing helpful items. He eventually turns out to be the traitor from the past and the Big Bad of the game. | |

Interchangeable Antimatter Keys | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_c2dbd1f8 | comment |
Interchangeable Antimatter Keys: There are four types of locks and keys in the game, steel, copper, silver, and gold, with each lock type responding only to a key of the same metal. The game itself is structured so there’s only one relevant lock/key combination of any given type at one time, but Sequence Breaking shows that they are treated as interchangeable for that type. (As one example, the speedrun route collects the gold key in Steamertown, but bypasses the gold lock there in order to use the key in the Fairy Forest, thereby skipping the quest to get that world’s gold key) | |

Half-Breed Discrimination | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_c59d9a4b | comment |
Half-Breed Discrimination: In Dreamertown, some characters will make comments on Melvin's mixed race status, and a book in the library says that Steamer-Dreamer children are believed to become agents of evil. After a messenger from Steamertown discusses the damage the earthquake inflicted there, the Dreamers are quick to turn Mel into their scapegoat, which leads to him leaving town. Talis' parents chose to live in the remote Canyon so that their daughter wouldn't suffer from this sort of treatment. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: Throughout Gothos, silver runes can be seen in the locales. If Melvin falls from a great height or into a Bottomless Pit, he'll respawn at the rune he most recently touched. | |

Our Dragons Are Different | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_d88e125e | comment |
Our Dragons Are Different: The game takes the route of intelligent and speaking quadrupeds with extra wings. Their morality is as divided as that of the human beings in the setting, as portrayed by the benign Ar-Khan and the evil Yor-Khan. A third dragon called Yar-Khan is mentioned in the in-game lore, but since he was killed by the aforementioned evil dragon before the events of the game, he is never seen. There is also the gargantuan yet seemingly non-sapient Lindworm that is fought as the boss of the Volcano. | |

Benevolent Precursors | |
| TechnoMage: Return of Eternity (Video Game) / int_dd7127d1 | comment |
Benevolent Precursors: The OldOnes used to be a proud civilization in the distant past, before their inadvertently self-imposed collapse. Unlike most examples of fallen Precursors, however, they actively used their power to protect the world, by forming a shield around Gothos to ward off the evils from the underworld. Judging by the various remnants of their existence Melvin discovers during his adventure, their only sin can be considered hubris. | |
