The Ejes Virein Tasu (EVT), is the Interstellar Kingdom Of Kuvexia's equivalent to SYNC and PANTHEON. The network is a highly monitored quantum computing network and communications platform. Access to network functions on the civilian level are pay-per-use, pay-per-access-level and profits are collected by the Monarchy. Nodes are installed for free, which forces the patron to purchase services or be left disconnected. The Kuvexian Military uses a secured tiered network but since most of the fleets are owned by rich patrons there are still fees involved. The Monarchy currently has awarded the contract for the development and management of the EVT to Unau Wibla Auhali.

Disconnection from the Ejes Virein Tasu (EVT) is a sign of poverty. The more connected a patron's home or ships are the more their wealth is displayed. High-end access packages are regarded as great conveniences and lower-end packages often result in guests complaining about the lack of services. There are several references in Kuvexian media to jokes regarding mercenaries who go broke and end up on stranded or malfunctioning ships unable to return home because their network access was cut and services like navigation in their unit were blocked.

Disconnections are also often used as a form of criminal justice, where punishment is handed out in the form of limited services, lowering access levels and/or bans from the network which results in function blackouts in the patron's nodes.

Civilian EVT Nodes, (Kuvo-Ejes Virein Tasu aka K-EVT) consist of quantum computers generally installed in satellites, residences or vessels and smaller devices and computers are linked via networking. Different pay-per-use and pay-per-access-level programs are available. An extensive advertising network broadcasts continually offering new packages and link options for regularly used devices and products to get the patron to pay for more service. Standard packages include things like news, calendar services, job postings, and communications programs. More advanced programs include services for privately owned starships and other luxuries.

Corporate Nodes are just like the civilian nodes except they work on a larger scale often providing the computing and networking solutions for office spaces, factories, facilities, and other work sites or equipment.

The Military Tiered EVT (Oroppo-Ejes Virein Tasu aka O-EVT) are the computing, communications and integrated electronics packages for starships, small craft, power armors, and other units and devices. Additional systems and packages are added depending on the class or model of the unit being outfitted.

O-EVT Systems, or O-EVT Integrated Electronics Systems are the Kuvexian Military nodes of the Ejes Virein Tasu (EVT) Network. They are comparable to the PANTHEON used by the Star Army of Yamatai.

The Kuvexian Military often features fleets owned by rich patrons. The patrons pay for the use of Ejes Virein Tasu, which is controlled by the Monarchy. If payment has defaulted, system disconnections and inference which in some cases can include sabotage or execution usually follow. These methods are sometimes used to punish officers and soldiers under suspicion or kill off traitors. Having a system go offline suddenly or an obscure malfunction often causes patrons to rush and make sure their payments are up to date.

“Doola didn't pay the payments for the Jabobi-Class Dropship, if he had he might have heard about the recall on those faulty airlocks!”

To make more profit the Interstellar Kingdom Of Kuvexia often will release patches or suggest updates and refits that patrons have to pay for. Sometimes these produced improved or updated systems, on occasion though it is just a money grab. Similarly, corporations often use this same practice to share recalls and refit sales on their products.

The O-EVT is a tier system:

Just like PANTHEON, the O-EVT systems are capable of defending themselves against attack. In addition to the self-destruct and the usual systems, in some cases, tampering might result in system re-writes, AI manipulation, and other pranks. For example, if a Rixxikor attempts to hijack a Kuvexian ship, the AI might reformat the system to leave the ship stranded and show obscure pornography or play annoying music over the internal communications systems.
