Cord

A Cord, also known as a “state-of-the-art Cord,”undefined is an item that the staff in the Mausoleum wear. Cords are also given out to spectators before they enter the Arena.undefined

Appearance
A Cord is described as a watch with a square screen.undefined It is apparently easy to remove as Seven removed Roman’s without trouble.undefined

Functions
A Cord has multiple functions depending on who is wearing it. If it is a spectator watching a fight in the Arena, they can take bets on it. It is seen that most people remove the Cord or stop paying attention to it once they finish betting.undefined

Branson’s Cord can switch the channel from the dark hallways and cells to a close-up of the Arena.undefined

Branson’s Cord “goes off” when it shows him messages, such as when he was alerted that Four was in his area as well as what his mood was.undefined

As shown with Roman’s Cord, it also activates certain elevators, such as the one that goes past the first floors into the underground. The elevator cannot be activated without the Cord being placed upon the scanner screen. The scanner screen reads the Cord code and confirms the person’s employment and clearance level.undefined

Cords also have a panic button, and right next to it there is the “session terminated button.” Both buttons notify the guards.undefined

Cords can also send alerts to the user, notifying them of things such as escaped prisoners.undefined

A Necrologists Cord has the option to call Reapers.undefined It can also unlock doors in the Gallows.undefined

A Cord is needed in order to pass the main doors, according to Seven.undefined
