	There are several different categories of item that your character can acquire in Empire, with different rules for each category. For some items Profound Decisions will provide you with a phys-rep for the item, for some you will need to provide your own phys-reps. In some cases the item will be accompanied by a card or ribbon that denotes its special powers or effects, in other cases the phys-rep alone will suffice.

	The basic rules for a carded game item will be printed on the reverse of the card. Carded game items are considered common in Empire, they are easy for characters to recognize and most people know what they do and how to use them. This means that you are free to read the text on the card at any point and have your character understand the implications of what is written there - i.e. your character knows what the item is and what it does.

			Sometimes the rules on a card will differ from the rules on the wiki. This usually means the card is leftover from an earlier version of the rules. In this case, the rules on the wiki take precedence. Where convenient - please exchange these cards in GOD for a replacement with the correct wording.

	You ''must'' provide a phys-rep for any carded game item that your character owns, and the cards should be kept with the phys-reps, otherwise you cannot use the substance in game and should not carry the cards on your person.
