Imperium-sanctioned Citizenship ID Qualifications Chip or QualChip

About the size of a modern mem-stick and hung around the neck like Dog Tags, the Imperium-sanctioned Citizenship ID Qualifications Chip or QualChip is a 57th Century ID Card and Passport. It uses a storage 'chip' of solid crystal that can hold 1 petabyte of information laser-etched into it. Being a permeant storage medium, it holds everything ever added to the 'chip'. It creates 'Addendums' to the stored information when any change is made.

  1. The problem is that the existence and profusion of such items make it difficult for a lot of adventures. I'd stick with low tech and less organization in my game.
