The most common '''Magitek Armor''' is the '''Reaper''' class. Reapers are multi-utility units that are sent on a wide variety of missions and tasks, ranging from recon to large-scale assaults. They are equipped with rapid fire turrets and homing missiles, and can also fire a massive beam of energy from the maw of the unit. They are highly coordinated and built for all terrain, with some even able to fly. As a last act of desperation, the core of the machine can be overloaded to fire a last-ditch attack that has massive destructive capabilities at the cost of the Reaper being destroyed. | The most common '''Magitek Armor''' is the '''Reaper''' class.

Magitek Armor is the brainchild of Solus zos Galvus, created during his rise through the ranks of the military. Though initially met with skepticism, the advent of Magitek and its use in the military helped raise the Garlean Empire from a small dying settlement to the brutal conquesting nation it is today.
History
In 1513 of the Sixth Astral Era, Solus Galvus had attained the rank of Legatus. At this time, the Ceruleum engine had only recently been invented, but he saw great promise in using it for more than warming homes or powering vehicles. He persuaded the military to fund the discovery that Ceruleum could be used as more than a burnable fuel, and set about creating prototypes. With his tactical prowess, he devised plans for Warmachina and weapons for soldiers. Upon realizing their destructive capabilities, he dubbed the machines Magitek, in recognition of the supposed "defeat" of magic through technology. He saw them integrated into the military, giving their forces a massive edge over the settlements and villages that would regularly attempt to raid them. With the advent of Magitek Armor and weapons, Garlemald soon began conquering the nations surrounding them, adding the people from these nations to their military force. With each nation on the continent taken under the Garlean banner, he proclaimed himself "Emperor", and the Garlean Empire was born.
The most common Magitek Armor is the Reaper class. Reapers are multi-utility units that are sent on a wide variety of missions and tasks, ranging from recon to large-scale assaults. They are equipped with rapid fire turrets and homing missiles, and can also fire a massive beam of energy from the maw of the unit. They are highly coordinated and built for all terrain, with some even able to fly. As a last act of desperation, the core of the machine can be overloaded to fire a last-ditch attack that has massive destructive capabilities at the cost of the Reaper being destroyed.
There are other varieties of Magitek Armor, such as the Magitek Colossi, that are unmanned empty suits of armor that are controlled remotely, or the massive Weapon Magitek Armor that are piloted and connected to the very essence of the pilot, such as The Diamond Weapon. There are also smaller varieties that act as suits of armor that enhance the wearer's combat abilities, like those worn by Julia quo Soranus and Annia quo Soranus in the battle at the Ghimlyt Dark. There have also been advancements made in making the Magitek Armor suits smaller and more mobile, such as the Gabriel prototype, used in the battles at the Bozjan Southern Front and Zadnor.
