Writing Tools

Pen

Pens come in a few different colors, black or blue by default, and some departments will be provided with red pens. Every crew member starts with one in their PDA.

Crayon

Crayons work much like pens, except that they are always bold, and lack the list, horizontal rule, and small tags.

Writing

Writing is performed by using any writing tool on paper, with any standard writing utensil.
