Maestro Affairs Offices

The Maestro Affairs Office (or MA for short) are standardized buildings found all over Riterra. They are funded and run by the central Riterran government. The facilities are quite large and host a variety of services for Maestros and their assigned resonators. Stray resonators, Naturals, and non-maestro humans are barred from utilizing the services below.

Administrative Office

• Processing local payments of Scherzando hunts   
  • This is done automatically; the local office is just responsible for processing payments to the tuners on the back end
  • Large Scherzando hunts take longer to process (typically 4-7 days)
    • This is usually to allow for competing claims to be filed, though this is extraordinarily rare
• Registering Maestros and Resonators in the government database
• Linking Resonators to tuners
  • In the event of a lost resonator, a local office can scan chips to locate the maestro
• Installing chips to facilitate Tuner-Resonator communication
• Raid registration   
  • Note:  Registrations can happen on-site at the raid location in question
    • Hunters usually don't pre-register 
    • Vendors will pre-register at the office itself, so they have less to do when arriving onsite.

Medical Wing

• Resonator health and wellness checkups
• Resonator Intensive care unit
  • Viva Units (Sometimes abbreviated to VUs
    • Can heal resonators from near death
      
    • Expensive to use, last resort emergency usage only
      
    • Ineffective on Maestros or Naturals
      
  • Can take Maestros in extreme emergencies or remote locations
    

Living Quarters

• Small hotel like area
  • Room count is variable (the smallest MA Offices have ten bedrooms. Larger facilities can have upwards of a hundred rooms)
    • Large cities will have multiple MA offices to serve all of the maestros traveling about
  • Only available for active raiders and battlers with registered tournament records.
    • Registration is required, usually done upon obtaining one's first resonator.
