SysTome

The Epitome of Portable Knowledge

Systomes as designed by Hepburn and Luncaster Group are a series of customizable and expandable electronic devices that can store massive amounts of data on a subject to assist the user with any menial and complicated tasks on a subject matter.

Systomes are expensive to purchase, but come loaded with the most current knowledge of the users preferred subjects. They can be updated real-time as long as there is an Æthernet connection. The knowledge contained can be expanded to include more sections of knowledge by purchasing expansion chips. The Systome itself is a physical cover with holographic technology inside. Searching can be done in an instant using communication implants.

I was sure as shit shitting myself when I saw that the Ka was the only one of our group strong enough to try and pull the Vampire Vines from my leg.

I was damned sure the brute would wind up just ripping of my entire damned leg so I just screamed for a punch to the face instead. Thank whatever fuckin' Sovereign was watching that the GearHeart had a medical Systome.

Big brute learned where to grab the vine and how to burn that blasted vine right out. I owe my life to Systome, and if it could teach a Ka to do surgery then I'm pretty sure if can do anything.

History

Systomes came from a desire to have more connectivity to the ever expanding wealth of knowledge flowing from every corner of the universe. The founders of the Systome originally created their product as a stylized compendium of different topics pulled by algorithms from all the search engines in existence.

Over time, as their product gained more popularity, they created their own ever growing and curated knowledge databanks, these topics could be licensed out and guaranteed only the best information could make it into the hands of its billions of users.

Usage

Many Systomes are purchased to assist with those needing references for intelligence. Doctors, technicians, lawyers, engineers, and many more use Systomes to ensure they are up to date and can find any information they need to run their day to day job.

A doctor can learn and read up on any new found disease by setting the Systome down and opening its holographic pages. Entire figures and animations of common surgeries can be whipped up alongside the doctor, guiding even the most novice surgeon through some of the most complicated medical procedures to date.
