Remote Identification Card Kit
Head of Personnel Exclusive
8 Telecrystals
The RIC Kit comes with 1 RIC and 1 RIC PDA Control Disc. Unlike Agent Cards or regular ID cards, RICs can be changed at any time through a PDA. The name can be changed, the color, the occupation, even the access. This makes it useful for a traitor HOP who doesn't want to get caught with an all access ID. It can also be used to disguise yourself as another person on the station right down to the last detail, letting everyone know it couldn't have been you. It also has an offensive purpose as well. The PDA can track like a pinpointer giving the exact location of the card holder, as well as take away all their access, or give them all access and then take it away when they finally get caught snooping. Or, be way less creative than that and just set off the charge hidden inside of it and blow them up like a PDA bomb. The RIC also has a special electromagnetic hacking ability: you can open -any- door, no matter if you have access or not, if you want to. Including blast shields. Hint hint.

So this was just an idea I had for a HOP exclusive item. We discussed this elsewhere and I did a quick writeup of what I thought it should do. Thoughts? Comments? Changes? Questions?

Kick it down to 5 or 6 crystals and leave only the pinpointer/explosion elements and you have a very solid traitor choice for Heads of Personnel.
