Mega-Items

• Communicard (Mega-Item •)

Dur: 1, Siz: 0, SL: 1

Effect: This type of next-gen communication- and identity-management systems is produced by Stark Enterprises, Oscom, Fitzengel Electronics, and other providers of top-of-the-line hardware for state, military, or private sector operations, in many variants and rivaling standards, and employed by many famous International Defense Agencies, Superhero Groups, or Terrorist Organizations, such as S.H.I.E.L.D., HYDRA, or The Avengers. A, by biometric and morphogenic security, rightfully identified owner may take up audiovisual communication with other members of its team, or other holders of such cards within a closed system of designated members and the operating company. The card may double as a high-end pass- or keycard with programmable clearances. The card also monitors the location and health condition of its owner, relates these data via satellite to its operator and can be programmed to alert other card members or operating personal, in case the owner becomes lost, or health condition changes to critical. To have a own Communicard System a group of Heroes must either rent the provider services from one of the companies above for a fee of Resources 3 per member and month, or own a shared Base with Computer Network 4+ and buy a franchised system from one of the companies above for Resources 5 without restrictions to members and allocation of cards, which includes appropriate hard- and software for the operating computers, as well as 100 blank cards.
