Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleCreated during the Bureau's founding in the early days of the Containment Zone, the Rubber Stamp was the very first tool used to classify every player as either 'Verified' or 'Pending Review.' It established the authentication hierarchy that still governs all competitive events today, making it the most essential and feared bureaucratic instrument in the system.
The Rubber Stamp creates ethereal digital imprints that appear on scorecards, registration forms, and official documents. These marks are permanent once applied and cannot be removed, even by senior Bureau archivists. The imprint glows faintly - green for fully approved clearance, yellow for provisional status, and red for players flagged under investigation. When viewed from different angles, the holographic quality reveals hidden Bureau seals within the stamp mark.
The Rubber Stamp serves as the Bureau's final word on player status - once stamped, a player's classification becomes official record. Stamped documents cannot be disputed through normal channels, only appealed through the mysterious Form 27-B process. This creates permanent consequences for players seeking clearance adjustments and makes every stamp event a moment of high stakes.
