===Data Storage===
[[File:TheianDataMatrix.png|thumb|A typical data matrix design]]Information is primarly stored on a portable device known as a '''data matrix'''. These devices resemble smooth dark-coloured octahedrons and most handheld matrices are large enough to be held in the palm of a Theian's hand. Data matrices respond to electrical signals (either detecting nerve impulses on the hand or through a suitably-designed reading device) and transmit the data to the connected processing unit, either a sapient's brain or a computer processor. Data matrices are designed by default to interface with Theian cybernetics. When a theian touches a data matrix, an interfacing system is projected onto their retinas via optical implants and the stroed information can be accessed with thought patterns.

Sapients who lack any way to recieve the stored information will only feel that the device is responding to the nerve impulses in their hand. Without appropriate processing the information would go unrecieved and without the right interfacing the information would appear as a hallucination in the user's vision. Insufficient processing capabilities can make the information appear jumbled or fractured as though one was looking at a broken tablet.
