Nova Sector Antagonist Policy
| Good Faith | Good Faith should be starting point of your interactions; while they won't always go how you want, it's important to always be trying your best to focus on creating roleplay where possible, even in dire circumstances! This doesn't mean you have to ignore the mechanics on the game, be that fixing a girder, or getting in a fight, just that you shouldn't be playing this role, or any other with the sole-intention of putting roleplay in second-place! |
General Rulings:
- Antagonists should not be hijacking/attacking the escape shuttle without admin-permission.
- Most of your actions should be focused around your objectives, or the people directly related to them, you should be keeping opt-in status' in mind aswell. Remember, RP is the focus, and even if the objective could be done with no witness' you should aim to generate some RP around the event itself.
- If you want to add additional objectives, or side-steps to getting towards an objective, make an ahelp so staff can keep in the loop for the where-and-why.
- Conversion requires there to be at least double-the-security for the amount of people you want to convert, unless it's a pre-set number of converts (Like holoparasite, or simian back up)
- Avoid targeting anything relating to atmospherics, or the engine, ahelp for permission if it's part of a gimmick to do so. You should not be attempting to force the round to end quickly via sabotage, massive destruction of the station, or total destruction.
- If you roll an antagonist that is not on this list, ahelp to inform staff.
- If a antagonist in the roster below does not have any metaprotections listed, it has none.
You've rolled [antag], and are ready to knock the head off your target, or elsewise, kidnap them, how should you go about this?
- As said below, you want to keep opt-in's in mind, this doesn't mean you can't wack the opt-in no engineer who just walked in on your murder, but it does mean you shouldn't kill them, just to steal their jaws so you can break into medical faster.
- Above anything else, before and after this, you want to avoid damaging large-swathes of the station for 1-2 targets.
So what can I do?!
- Damage an area, as long as said damage is specifically related to the objective.
- Target sec when they show up, as they're always opted in.
- Elsewise, you can follow their opted in prefs, be it round removal, or what the objective said.
Opt-In
Opt-In Prefs
- No means you will not be placed in any antagonist objectives. This does not make you immune to IC consequences or circumstance.
- Yes - Inconvenience applies to antagonists and their objectives, namely being kidnapped or cuffed either by objective or circumstance.
- Yes - Kill applies to both antags and non-antags, letting them know you're open to be killed more wantonly, which also means means you can catch the fade for walking in on a bad situation.
- Yes - Round-removal is much the same: it lets people know you're alright with round-removal in most situations. So if you walk into a bomb threat you should expect they won't even try to not gib you.
PMS / Station Threats: |

Permanent Mechanical State

Station Threat:A station threat is an antag who any player can: hunt, pursue, or elsewise try to kill, without the pursuer needing to worry about valid hunting rules. This is to say they are completely free game for the crew to target. Station threats are still protected by CI policy, unless they are in a permanent mechanical state. For EX:

Sandbox Antagonists
What is a Sandbox Antagonist?
Sandbox antagonists are our idea of trying to promote higher roleplay in Antagonists by offering engagement with known professional and high quality actors within the community. In particular, having high performing and creative individuals behind the Antagonist wheel ensures that we have better experiences and opportunities for character development with the average crewmember.
