Personnel file

An element of the database, the personnel file is a running tally of everything a character does in the game, and is accompanied by a current snapshot. The personnel file can be viewed by anyone, with some restrictions (see below). Information included in the personnel file will be (chronologically, with appropriate star dates): Only a character's history with a particular faction will be visible to members of that faction. For instance, a civilian brought aboard a starship of the Blue faction might have a long, impressive history of working for the Red faction, but this will be unknown to the Blue ship's crew (unless they learn of it by other means). A citizen of the Red faction, however, would be able to see that character's full service record with his own faction, but none from the Blue.
