'''Warp Cores''' are core-tier devices that enable small-scale space-time manipulations for tactical advantages. They are very much like Star Trek Warp Cores — but available at ''any'' size, from handheld units to backpack-mounted personal systems to starship-scale installations.

== Function ==
Warp Cores can:
* Generate '''micro warp fields''' — localized spacetime distortions for tactical advantage
* '''Modulate''' existing [[Warp Zones]] — adjusting natural interdimensional fields
* '''Manipulate''' Warp Zones — redirecting or reshaping dimensional passages
* '''Close or open''' Warp Zones — sealing dangerous rifts or creating new passages
* '''Manifest or generate''' new Warp Zones — creating artificial dimensional transit points

[[Warp Zones]] are best depicted as they appear in the ''Sonic OVA Movie'' — natural interdimensional travel fields that the Warp Core can interact with and control.

== Warp vs. Hyperspace ==
Warp and [[Hyper Fusion|Hyperspace]] are '''different''' phenomena:
* '''Warp''' — bending spacetime itself; moving space around you
* '''Hyperspace''' — entering a parallel dimensional layer where distances are compressed
* '''HyperWarp''' — entering Hyperspace ''and then'' Warping within it (combining both for maximum capability)

== Warp vs. Phasic Drive ==
Warp Cores handle spacetime curvature and dimensional transit. '''[[Phasic Drive]]s''' are what enable '''phasing through walls''' and similar matter-phase manipulation — a related but distinct technology.

== Warp Cores & Fusion Wings ==
Warp Cores are '''separate''' from the [[Fusion Wings]]' dimensional projection capability. The wings achieve dimensional projection through charging the plasma pocket's architecture density via sustained runaway fusion reactions — that's an energy-density approach. Warp Cores achieve similar effects through direct spacetime manipulation — a field-geometry approach.

However, when excess energy builds up in the [[Fusion Wings]] beyond what can be safely dissipated, the suit's [[AI]] may ''accidentally'' generate a [[Warp Zone]] — effectively performing a Warp Core function using raw energy overflow. More advanced technology eventually enables '''subspace and pocket universe generation''' to store excess energy long-term.

== Scale ==
