Mind Memory Chip Mk 1

Hybrid

A mind memory chip resembles a thumb drive or similar data-storage device, albeit with a flesh-like exterior engraved with silvery outlines resembling a brain’s folds. When held against the skin of a helpless or willing living creature for 3 rounds, the chip adheres to the creature, after which you can command the chip to download a specific memory (or memories from an unbroken stretch of time) from the host creature. The host creature can resist the chip in several ways. First, the host can attempt a DC 14 Will save, becoming immune to that chip’s memory extraction for 24 hours if it succeeds. Second, attaching the chip to a sleeping host is noticeable, and you must succeed at a Sleight of Hand check opposed by the host’s Perception check (including only a –5 penalty for the asleep condition) to attach it without alerting the target.

The mind memory chip detaches from the host creature easily and can be plugged into a computer to transfer and display the memories like a video or uploaded into another creature’s memories through a datajack augmentation or similar device. A recipient can easily distinguish uploaded memories from their own, and even if the uploaded memories record educational material, the memories don’t grant the recipient additional skills, languages, or abilities. A mk 1 mind memory chip has a capacity of 10 minutes.
