ESPIONAGE
EQUIPMENT
Bio-Hound: ( 1 .lb ) This is a
hand-held sensor, app. 6" x 4" x 2", usually worn
on a shoulder strap. The Bio-Hound detects characteristic
molecules of a specific lifeform and tracks them. It can be set
for a target as general as a species, or as specific as a single
individual. The dedicated computer has files on the
characteristics of all Alliance races, and can accommodate up to
200 more files. Tracking a specific target requires a detailed
genetic analysis of the target ( usually obtained from medical
files ). Using a Bio-Hound is a Level 4 difficulty Computer
Operations task.
The hound has a base 90% ability to determine if a target has
been within 5 meters. This is reduced by -15% per one-half hour
of the trail's age. The hound can track only one target at a
time. Cost: 45,000
