Just found it in the inventory of one of my alts (a low level I almost never played with at all):


Item: ID Card (image like access key)
 
Details: "This is an identification card from your bluepill life. There must be some reason you still have it..."


I might've missed some announcement or update, but what is this item? Does anyone know?

You trade it to the first collector you see when you come out of the first Uriah hardline.

I know noone was dying to know this, but:

I actually held on to my Bluepill I.D card with a few of my alternate characters. I felt it symbolised a token, a symbol... something to hold on to from that character's bluepill life. One which reminded me and them that being a redpill did not mean cutting off all ties to the life before. That choosing the red did not negate any association with the blue.

XElite, that's very elegant and thought-out.

Agreed: I'm not exactly working on an endgame for my characters, but before MxO ends, I'm hoping to RP or write a bit involving Sieges or her brother Merrill crossing paths with their father and explaining what happened as best as they can. This would be a bit of a brain-breaker in Merrill's case, since he was "killed" by Unlimits and their dad has been mourning his son's "death" ever since, not quite as much as he's mourning Sieges's disappearance, since he had some closure on what happened, but he still doesn't know what happened to Sieges.

Not only that but I keep a lvl 1 alt that I've grown quite fond of.  I've used him for dual clienting / mission scaling.  Plus, you can go back into the tutorial if you want to.  You know to maintain a lvl 1 character you just /suicide out of the tutorial.  Just dont kill any choppers or tag any hardline.  Oh and another fun fact...if you run an "Easy" mission at lvl 1 your NPC's will all be level zero SMILEY
