Standard Equipment Pack - The standard equipment pack contains many useful items, but does not include any weapons other than a single doze grenade. Cost: 150Cr
Items included in the standard equipment pack are explained below:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chronograph/Communicator. This device looks like a large wristwatch, but it can do many things. It is a watch with a lighted face that can be used as a stopwatch; it is a mini-calculator; it is a radio/video communicator that can be used to talk with other characters up to 5 kilometers away. It can be used to summon the police or a rental skimmer, as well.
Coveralls. This is a highly durable, waterproof suit. It will keep the character warm in cool weather and cool in hot weather. It has large pockets on the hips, legs and chest, as well as several smaller pockets on the sleeves.
Doze Grenade. This is the only weapon in the standard equipment pack. See Damage: Doze Grenades for more information.
First Aid Pak. This kit contains a spray bandage, an antiseptic spray and a spray hypodermic. The spray hypo does not use a needle, and is painless. It contains one dose of each of these two survival drugs: STIMDOSE: A Stimdose injection gives a character 10 extra Stamina pointsforthree hours. After three hours, the character losesthe 10 Stamina points and must rest without moving for 24 hours. A Stimdose injection will not raise a character's current number of Stamina points above his original Stamina score. A Stimdose will not revive a character whose Stamina has been reduced to 0 or less. It wail revive a character who was knocked unconscious by a doze grenade, but will not restore 10 Stamina points to the character. STAYDOSE: Staydose puts a character to sleep for 24 hours, slows down his heartbeat and breathing, and helps stop bleeding. If a character's Stamina has been reduced to O or less, a Staydose injection must be given in 10 turns and will keep the character alive until he is taken to a hospital.
ID Card. All characters should carry an ID card. An ID card can be used only by its owner, because the computers which read ID cards also scan the character's thumbprint. ID cards are commonly used as credit cards. When a character buys something, his ID card must be inserted into a computer. He places his thumb (or paw, or digit, or pseudopod) on a screen so the character can verify his identity, and then the money is deducted automatically from the character's bank account. This same process is used to pay for monorail rides and rented skimmers. Money can be deposited into an account without the card, but the card is needed to get money out.
Pocket Tool. This device is similar to a pocket knife, but it includes many small tools besides a pen-knife blade; a universal screwdriver, a small adjustable wrench, vice pliers, a hole puncher, an electromagnet, and a small flashlight that will shine up to 25 meters.
Survival Rations. This small package contains enough concentrated food and water purification tablets for one person for five days.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Survival Rations - A box of survival rations contains four airtight foil-wrapped packets. Each packet holds a food concentrate that looks like crumbly dust. When water is added, the dust quickly becomes a delicious(?) meal of protein and vitamin-packed mush. One packet will feed one character for one day. Cost: 2Cr
Vitasalt pills - Vitasalt pills are special pills containing vitamins and minerals, including salt. They help reduce a character's need for water in dry areas. Cost: 1Cr
Water Pack - A water pack contains eight one-liter plastic bags of water. Each bag has a re closable seal. The water bags come packed in a lightweight plastic frame. The frame can be converted into a simple backpack in 5 minutes. Cost: 4Cr
