-Every worker of Space Station 13 is issued an identification card. Your ID has your name, occupation, and a device that broadcasts your access to the station's autonomous systems, which is used both to identify the holder and open up airlocks the worker has access to. For example, the [[Quartermaster]] has access to the Cargo Bay and Quartermaster's Office, while Assistants, for example, do not. ID cards can have their access modified by the [[Captain]] or [[Head of Personnel]]. When your face is covered your ID is the only way of identifying you.
+==What is an Identification Card?==
+An identification card, or ID card, is an item used for identification on board the station, as the name implies. Every worker of Space Station 13 is issued an identification card. Your ID has your name, occupation, and a device that broadcasts your access to the station's autonomous systems, which is used both to identify the holder and open up airlocks the worker has access to. For example, the [[Quartermaster]] has access to the [[Cargo Bay]] and [[Quartermaster's Office]], while [[Assistant|Assistants]] do not. ID cards can have their access modified by the [[Captain]] or [[Head of Personnel]] using an [[Computers#Identification_Console|Identification Console]]. When your face is covered, your ID card is the only way of identifying you.
-===Types of ID cards===
+Examination will show you the name, job, age and bank balance of the person it is registered to. This is useful in determining whether an ID card is stolen, whether the person has gained access illicitly, whether the person is old enough to drink, and whether the person is who they say they are.

+<pre>That's John Doe's ID Card (Assistant).
+A card used to provide ID and determine access across the station.
+It is a tiny item.
+John Doe's ID Card (Assistant) looks pretty robust! It'd probably be able to withstand acid!
+John Doe's ID Card (Assistant) is made of fire-retardant materials.
+The card indicates that the holder is 23 years old.
+The account linked to the ID belongs to 'John Doe' and reports a balance of $30.</pre>

+==Types of ID Cards==
