Fishers Island Sheriff's Department
The primary law enforcement faction on Fisher's Life is the Fishers Island Sheriff's Department (FISD). The Sheriff's Department is composed of multiple divisions to ensure smooth daily operations of the FISD.
The FISD is responsible for protecting and serving the citizens of the island. FISD officers are trained to prioritize the lives of citizens over their own, in the name of order and the island's safety.

¶ 🖥️ Mobile Data Terminal (M.D.T)
To access the MDT, you can use any FISD (or emergency) vehicle equipped with a passenger-side computer. Rotate the computer and open it to access the MDT. If no computer is available, you can use the “Tab” key in unequipped emergency vehicles.
Key Information:
- To appear as a unit on duty, you must be in a vehicle when entering your unit information in the MDT. Unit details entered from a fixed PC will not work. Similarly, responding to calls is tied to a unit (vehicle), not directly to a FISD member.
At the start of your shift, retrieve your service vehicle from the garage and open the MDT inside. Begin by entering your unit information, such as callsign (e.g., Adam 1/2/3), specialization (if applicable), initial status (to be updated by dispatch), base location (where you remain when not on a call), and any additional information as needed.
When you open the MDT, the screen will display the following (these images are from the FIFR MDT but are identical for the FISD):
The MDT is divided into sections such as unit lists and information (top left - red), dispatch details (bottom left - green), and additional information fields. Further details are shown in subsequent images.

¶ 🏪 Stock and Budget Management
The FISD must manage its stock carefully. Like any citizen, the FISD relies on businesses to manufacture:
- Weapons
- Magazines
- Equipment
- Vehicles
Contracts are signed between businesses and the FISD, with blueprints provided for production.
The weekly budget for the FISD is allocated by the Department of Justice. Factors affecting the budget include:
- Employee salaries
- Fines collected
- Random events
- Material purchases
Salaries are directly deducted from the faction's bank account, requiring careful budget management to avoid equipment shortages or unpaid employees.
