'''Bare minimum requirements:''' Guard the armory and make sure your officers are following proper brig procedure.

[[File:Thebrig.png|300px|thumb|alt=Brig|Your Domains: The [[Brig]] + [[Security Office]] + [[Prison Wing]] + [[Warden's Office|Your Office]]]]<br>

Half of your job is to look after the prisoners, make sure they don't die or get unfair [[Space Law|sentences]], and make sure they don't escape. The other half of your job is to arm security with weapons in times of war. You are '''not''' a [[Security Officer]]. '''Stay in the brig.'''

Even more important: '''''STAY IN YOUR GODDAMN OFFICE, WATCH THE DAMN ARMOURY'''''!

If you have no prisoners to watch out for, you should be coordinating the security officers over the security radio channel. People often make accusations of crime on the radio that you can follow up on. Additionally, when the proper research is completed, your security officers can wear bodycams allowing you to be their eye in the sky no matter where they are. You can ensure all arrest records are filled in with this and with information from the security radio channel to make sure officers don't wonder why a particular person is wanted. You can also check on the [[Computers#Security_Cameras|cameras]] for reported disturbances and update the records of anyone involved (which should be done regularly). Your fellow officers will appreciate your help in sending them where they can make a difference. You really have the opportunity to make Security run like a well-oiled machine.

==[[Lawyer|Lawyers]]==

When used correctly, the station's legal counselors can provide an extra layer of security by keeping an eye on things or by policing the various debris and detritus that crops up over the course of a shift. Pass out some spare sunglasses or a SecHUD (if you're feeling particularly generous) and don't refuse their clients' right to counsel. If you wind with a ''[[traitor|criminal]] attorney'' on your hands, don't hesitate to bring the hammer down.

[[File:Armory.png|300px|thumb|alt=Armory|The [[Armory]]]]<br>

Given the ever-present threat of prison breaks and riots, a skilled Warden is a well-equipped warden. Your locker contains a Compact Combat Shotgun, a box of flashbangs, some extra zipties and burn resistant gloves that teach you krav maga. Stuff some of that in your bag.

Don't forget your small supply of firing pins, which are the only way to make a usable gun from Research and Development. Don't be too stingy: If you help the [[Research Director]], they might give you some nice toys later on (Mindshield Firing Pins).

The [[Armory]] contains different sets of implants which you may want to make use of for prisoner control.

These will allow you to inject up to 50 units of toxins into the subject at any time from the Prisoner Management Console in your office. May be loaded with sedatives instead. For larger doses, subject may be implanted multiple times.

====Tracking Implants====

These will allow you to detect if the subject is nearby using the locator device provided. Also leaves a blinking red dot if the subject is observed with a [[Hud#Security_HUD_Icons|Security HUD]].

Prevent the subject from being brainwashed by [[Revolution|commies]], [[Cult|zealots]], and [[Gang War|mobsters]]. They also revert the effects of [[Revolution|some]] [[Gang War|conversions]]. If someone resists them, they're either a ringleader or [[Shadowling|something much worse]]. More can be ordered in the [[Cargo Bay]], albeit at an extremely high cost. Ensure all security personnel are loyalty implanted by checking your [[Hud#Security_HUD_Icons|Security HUD]].

Sitting at your desk is alright, but you should make sure to scan the cell blocks every once in a while to make sure no one is hurt in the cells, or that no one has broken in. Your job is to protect all of security from people busting in, or out. A quick sweep every few minutes should be fine, being a warden is a mostly relaxing job, just make sure to stun anyone who looks suspicious in the brig (or security office area) and hold them till the head of security comes. Remember, '''DISARM FIRST''', kill if that's your only option.

If you are going to sit around, the least you can do is update the security records for your prisoners and anyone mentioned on the radio.

Referring back to the [[Chain_of_Command|chain of command]], remember that the [[Head of Personnel]] is not your superior, nor are they a member of the security team. If they are trying to break into the armory without prior authorization throw them in a cell so the Head of Security or Captain can have a talk with them. Remember they might not be the [[traitor|Head of Personnel]] [[changeling|at]] [[abductor|all!!]]

==Labor Camp==

Space Station 13 has a completely functional labor camp. Consider sending prisoners here if they are particularly unruly and need a well deserved vacation from the station. Before sending a prisoner to labor camp use a prisoner ID and set a point goal for them to achieve. Make sure to point out the card console in the labor ship as it is often overlooked. Prisoners are given a sleeper, toilets and mining equipment. Be aware that many a foolish officer has died to the labor camp pickaxe. For this reason and many others be very cautious when sending prisoners here. Again, remember to give the prisoners a point goal or else they may be stuck there forever.
