{{DISPLAYTITLE:Magneto-skates}}
'''Magneto-skates''' are personal-scale magneto-gravitic footwear produced by the [[Magneto-Gravitic Vehicles Industry]] ([[MGVI]]) under the broader [[Tho'ra Tech]] portfolio. They are the smallest production-class member of the [[Magneto Speeder]] family \u2014 the same rotor-stack physics, the same coil-stack profile, the same drive doctrine, scaled to a pair of boots.

== Overview ==

Magneto-skates are not roller skates with magnets. They are a complete personal-mobility platform:

* '''Drive.''' A miniature [[Magneto-coil]] stack in each boot's sole, tuned to the same resonant-\u03c9 family as the [[Magneto Speeder]]. The wearer hovers a few centimetres above any surface that contains sufficient ferromagnetic or magneto-gravitic substrate \u2014 and, with sufficient training, above surfaces that do not.
* '''Coupling.''' Skates couple to the wearer's [[PsiLink]]. Direction, acceleration, and stop are intent-driven; the stance is the steering. There is no throttle, no brake, no joystick.
* '''Profile.''' The coil stack is visible at the boot edge, with the signature ember-orange underglow when active. This is canonical aesthetic for [[Tho'ra Tech]] personal hardware: ''show the work''.

== Wearers ==

{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%"
! Wearer !! Configuration !! Use\n|-\n| '''[[Aurora Tho'ra]]''' || Daily-wear; ember-orange underglow; auroral magenta-green accent at the seam \u2014 her visual fingerprint || Casual transit around [[Tho'ra HQ]] and the production floor; rapid response without spinning up a [[Magneto Speeder]]\n|-\n| '''[[Amber Tho'ra]]''' || Performance variant; tuned for the [[The Amber Tho'ra Show|Show]]; broadcast-friendly underglow; lighter coil-stack, higher dynamic range || Stage mobility on the [[Cosmic Sphere Stadium]] central platform; cockpit-to-set transitions on the [[Star Speeder Mk3]]\n|-\n| '''[[Jane Tho'ra]]''' || Combat variant; reinforced ankle stack; combat-dance compatible || [[Tho'ra Combat Dance]] training; field deployment\n|}\n\nAmber's pair are her '''personal Mk-grade footwear''' \u2014 not a production unit. The performance variant was tuned by [[Aurora Tho'ra]] in the same fab cycle as the [[Star Speeder Mk3]] and uses a software stack from [[Jono Tho'ra]] specific to broadcast-stable hover. They are part of the Show's signature visual: the floating central platform plus the floating performer plus the floating boots is a deliberately layered hover stack that reads, on broadcast, as ''sustained cosmic levity''.\n\n== Operational Notes ==\n\n* Magneto-skates are flagged as '''restricted-export''' from [[MGVI]]. Production volume is small; ownership outside the [[Tho'ra Clan]] and named [[Earth Alliance]] partners is rare.\n* The PsiLink coupling makes the skates '''non-trivial to use without consent''': a stolen pair will not couple to an unfamiliar [[PsiLink]] signature without a substantial pairing window. This is canonical [[MGVI]] anti-theft posture and parallels the parental-control stack on the broader [[Star Speeder]] line.\n* Magneto-skates count as a [[Magneto-Gravitic Vehicles Industry|MGVI]] vehicle for [[Earth Intelligence Network]] inventory purposes, not as apparel.\n\n== See Also ==\n\n* [[Magneto Speeder]] \u2014 the larger sibling, same drive family\n* [[Magneto-Gravitic Vehicles Industry]] \u2014 manufacturer\n* [[Tho'ra Tech]] \u2014 parent technology programme\n* [[PsiLink]] \u2014 the coupling layer\n* [[Aurora Tho'ra]] \u2014 chief engineer; daily wearer\n* [[Amber Tho'ra]] \u2014 performance-variant wearer\n* [[Star Speeder Mk3]] \u2014 same fab cycle as Amber's pair\n* [[Cosmic Sphere Stadium]] \u2014 stage venue for the performance variant\n\n[[Category:Magneto-Gravitic Vehicles Industry]]\n[[Category:Tho'ra Tech]]\n[[Category:Personal Equipment]]\n
