Identification papers

Identification papers are sets of documents giving personal information about the bearer. [1] [2]

Description

Each set of identification papers includes the bearer's name, title, occupation, and residency, and if necessary their affiliations to important organizations (such as royal families or dragonmarked houses ). They also contain a detailed description of the bearer's appearance, though wealthy citizens often even commission small portraits to accompany this. [1] [2]

Usage

Identification papers are common in Khorvaire 's more civilized nations, namely Aundair , Breland , Karrnath , the Mror Holds , Thrane , and Zilargo . However, normally only members of the upper and middle classes need to have them on their person all the time. [1] [2]

Issuing

The Notaries Guild of House Sivis notarizes identification papers, though they are officially issued by a government to its citizens. [1] [2] [note 1]

Appendix

Notes

  1. The sources say it is House Sivis that notarizes identification papers. It is very like that it is the Notary Guild that does this, but it is not explicitly stated.
