Organizations in
The Web have always maintained strained relations since The Web was initially founded, but as of the early 90s, a tradition emerged surrounding libraries all over the world. These organizations may be divided in purpose but their goals are the same.
Obtaining a library card is an essential part of joining The Web. Individuals often find themselves towering over dusty old books in their investigations, but this is no ordinary library card.
The Alexandrian University issues library cards that allow access to private libraries across the world. These libraries hold books far more relevant to the work of those in The Web.
These cards also allow access to restricted areas of public libraries. The majority of larger libraries in the world have these sections specifically for the use of those in The Web, courtesy of
The Chiron Group. These cards are also a symbol of peace and neutrality, as violence in library is considered a grave offense, and can be punished by death without fear of consequence.
Other Uses
Library cards from The University can also be used to access safehouses the university and The Chiron Group maintains across the globe. This offers a place to study and rest. It offers a place to learn and prepare.
The Troubleshooters: An Introduction benefited the most from this, but everyone finds themselves in need for a roof over their heads at one time or another.
Other uses include bypassing civilian security systems requireing card readers and the ability to access funds from dummy accounts that appear and disappear from the ether, another lovely gift from The Board of The Chiron Group. These accounts appear only when needed, and no evidence can be found as to how.
Some claim one can requisition resources such as weapons or ammunition from the larger organizations using the cards, but such statements are more complicated in reality. Some organizations offer favors to smaller organizations in exchange for one thing or another. After a quick scan of the library card, that favor can be called in anywhere, at anytime.
I don't have a library card... WE MUST GO ON A QUEST! very interesting video...
Exactly. Getting a library card is like leveling up to the big leagues. I'll develop the idea more later on, but its definitely a great side quest or reputation focused thing.
