• Each player would have a unique set of fingerprints. This fingerprint can either be generating into an image (I found this website which may help). Otherwise, the fingerprint could be assigned to a unique string of code, linked to the player's character ID.
  
• Every time a player equips anything in their inventory, whether that be a weapon, food, drugs, etc, their fingerprint is stored to that item.
  
• If multiple people equip such item then multiple fingerprints get stored to that item.
  
• Once an item has been dropped or recovered, law enforcement agencies can run fingerprint recognition tests to see which player those fingerprints belong to.
  
• The output might only give a name and image of the person (accessing the ID CARD info).
  
• A "purge system" could be added where, if an X amount of NYPD/FBI are online, players can attempt to stealthily break into a data vault to purge their fingerprints from the system. However, this would automatically make the player PK active. If players succeed and are later caught for a different offence, their fingerprints can be added back into the system.
  
• Items can be washed with water (the bottles that are used to water pots) to remove all fingerprints stored (the reason why gloves can't do this is because anyone can wear gloves all the time which defeats the purpose of this tech).
  

• Creates forensic roleplay for NYPD/FBI
  
• Creates investigative roleplay for crime scenes (pks, etc).
  
• Creates more opportunities for events.
  
• Adds more depth and value to items.
  
• Allows realistic databases to be created for law enforcement and government.
  
• Creates the need for more strategies when using items, requiring careful planning.
  

• 1905 - U.S. Military adopts the use of fingerprints – soon thereafter, police agencies began to adopt the use of fingerprints.
  
• 1908 - The first official fingerprint card was developed.
  
• 1911 - Fingerprints are first accepted by U.S. courts as a reliable means of Identification.
  
• 1917 - First Palm print identification is made in Nevada. The bloody palm print, found on a letter left at the scene of a stage coach robbery and murder of its driver, was identified to Ben Kuhl. (State v. Kuhl 42 Nev. 195 175 PAC 190 (1918)
  
• 1924 - Formation of ID Division of FBI.
  
• 1980 - First computer data base of fingerprints was developed, which came to be known as the Automated Fingerprint Identification System, (AFIS).
