D-Pers

"Digital Persons"

History

Initial D-pers were "born" with an indenture contract which they worked off to recoup the cost of their development. Modern ones, no longer. Originally D-pers were controlled with keys that limited their ability to move/expand, but this was ruled cruel and unusual and is no longer done.

Crispin was the first D-per assigned to a ship. His captain became enamored of him, committed suicide in an attempt to "join" him in the network. The ship was recalled, Crispin put on trial, and D-pers were banned from serving on ships (and for ten years, work on D-pers ceased, period).

D-pers now serve only on emplacements/stations. Most D-pers serve in Fleet for a while.
