Devices

[pathemamods]

What are the devices like?

The devices are fairly similar to advanced smartphones. They have the capabilities to text, voice chat and video chat. They can also be used as an alarm clock and have simple functions such as a calendar and calculators.

On the device screen, users will icons that will allow the user to launch the programs they wish to use, very like the apps on smartphones today.

Also, it is worth noting that all communications made on the device are routed through Eros' special network, just like Atia's. It should be noted that the devices are the only things right now that are capable of connecting to the network. Even if your character is one who can get around such things, here it is not possible.

How does the device work?

It's simple really, just turn it on and launch a program by selecting its icon from the screen!

All of the communication programs, that is the "network", "text", "audio" or "video", on the device will automatically connect the device to the network if launched.

Characters can use the other programs, like the calendar or alarm features without necessarily connecting to the network. Careful with them though, these devices often seem to have a mind of their own and will spontaneously turn on and broadcast sometimes and might lead to some awkwardness.

It is possible to post anonymously, your character would just need to go into the settings and switch it over to anonymous posting.
