PrismCom

PrismCom perfect for adventurers, spies, or anyone who wants to stay connected. These short range devices are nothing short of magnificent, letting you send quick messages to one another to share updates, coordinate plans, or even pass along love notes and the latest gossip around town.

So… how many are in your group? Let’s get everyone linked up and ready to talk.

Mechanics & Inner Workings

PrismCom devices can communicate with any other PrismCom they’re linked to within a range of 150 feet. To send a message, simply press the button for the device or devices you wish to reach. You can send to one, several, or all linked units at once. On most standard models the maximum number of linked models you can have is 8. Speak your message (up to 35 words) and it will appear on your own PrismCom screen so you can review it before sending. If it looks good, send it. If not, start over.   When delivered, the recipient’s PrismCom will either emit a glowing or grow faintly warm to the touch, depending on the model. Each device can store up to five messages before needing to be cleared. Newer models can hold more.

Interference & Range Notes

PrismComs can receive messages from anywhere within range, but dense barriers between sender and recipient can delay or break the signal. High-mana zones or areas saturated with active spellwork create arcane static that makes sending and receiving difficult. In these conditions, messages may queue, arrive out of order, or fail entirely until the interference clears.
