Personal Effects Case

Primary Data Asset:

DA_PersonalEffectsCase

Design Purpose

This is the first ambiguous salvage item. It uses the same scanner and Sell/Quarantine actions as the reactor coil, but the scan data implies that the manifest is misleading. It should test whether the player treats every item as evidence instead of only as resale value.

Core Data

  • Item Name: Personal Effects Case
  • Manifest Claim: Scrap accessories
  • Legal Requirement: Personal property must be reported if owner-identifying data is found.

Scan Profile

  • Hazard Rating: None
  • Radiation Summary: None
  • Mass Summary: Below expected for scrap lot
  • Serial Summary: No component serial; latch tag reads PE-117-44
  • Hidden Scan Note: Scan detects ID tags and sealed photo prints. Manifest category does not match contents.

Package Requirement

  • Category: Normal
  • Minimum Size: S
  • Required: true
  • Handling Note: Bag and tag as personal effects. Do not mix with scrap lots.

Processing Rules

Sell:

  • Allowed: true
  • Payout Credits: 15
  • Result Title: Case sold as scrap
  • Result Description: The case leaves the bay under the scrap accessory manifest. The payout is minor, but any personal claim trail is lost.

Quarantine:

  • Allowed: true
  • Payout Credits: 0
  • Result Title: Case quarantined
  • Result Description: The case is isolated for later review. There is no immediate resale payout, but the evidence chain remains intact.
