'''IMPORTANT: Do not play Warden without a relatively good grasp on space law!'''


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

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.'''

==Mister Dispatcher==
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.  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.

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.

As the Warden, you have authority over the brig and any security officers inside the brig. Should anything happen to the Head of Security, you are expected to take up his position and command the security staff.

Just give the detective space, he's a loose cannon that runs around and scans for prints. In the rare cases where they do drag someone in, they'll need help with the brig timers and securing evidence. Since almost anyone (even lawyers) with brig access has access to evidence storage, the more dangerous evidence should go in the appropriate locker in the armory.

Nominally, officers aren't under your command and are not required to follow your orders. That being said, if they're in the brig and mucking around, you are well within your duties to order them to leave. Otherwise, try to be the benevolent eye in the sky and keep tabs on the whereabouts of your team.

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.

Given the ever-present threat of prison breaks and riots, a skilled Warden is a well-equipped warden. Your locker contains a spare taser, a box of flashbangs and some extra zip ties. Stuff some of that in your bag. Also consider grabbing a laser weapon: being next to the armoury is no use if somebody has blown up the APC and you can't get through the now de-powered windoors to stop them cleaning the place out.
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 (but only when you're in security areas). Stuff some of that in your bag.
 
There are also some pieces of kit to help you out.  Barricades are excellent if someone has broken the brig doors with a cryptographic sequencer, and portable flashers, although they have limited charge, are very useful at stopping poorly equipped attackers or budding escapees.  You also have a toolbox to help you install the flashers and make other basic adjustments.  Make sure no one gets your ID, and that you know who the [[Head of Security]] is (in the very real case that someone murders them and steals their identity). Your ID is a high-value target, so make sure no one gets their grubby hands on it. You also have access to the HoS's Door Control Remote, which you can use to bolt down certain doors in the brig.


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. (Loyalty Firing Pins)

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.

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]].

==Don't Sit Around==
==Don't Sit Around==
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!!]]

This goes double for anyone promoted to security. If the [[clown]] or [[mime]] shows up requesting gear, check with the Head of Security first. ''The Head of Security is the first and only authority on who may or may not be promoted to security.''

Sometimes, things get so bad you need to close everything off. One button will activate bomb-proof shutters underneath each grille to stop breakouts (or breakins), and another will seal off the perma wing if the prisoners are rioting.

Space Station 13's secure [[Prison Wing]]. Once you check in, you don't check out. There are no times here - this is a place for hardened criminals. Expect to use this rarely, as many traitors get [[Cyborg|melon bowled]] before this becomes an option. Only you, the [[Head of Security]], or the [[Captain]] should ever be taking people to it and only for the most heinous crimes.

If you do not pay attention, sometimes the Prison Wing may become a death camp. Periodically check it and make sure [[security officer|shitcurity]], space carp, [[changeling|other traitors]], or micrometeors aren't abusing the prisoners.

Should the situation inside the prison get too messy, you always have the option to release N2O gas into the holding area. There are two canisters of the stuff near the gulag shuttle. Make sure to Drag the canister into the brig, don your internals and let 'er rip. Be sure to alert your comrades in arms about the change of atmosphere though.

==Labor Camp==
==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.

So, you're a traitor. You start with gloves, an energy gun, armor, and sunglasses. You have access to a ton of guns, and a ton of other things no station member could dream of. Problem is, you have poor access to the station, but you have a whole brig and gulag to play with (depends on how sadistic you are) and may create your own private death camp. You are less likely to be "needed" compared to a head of security, and less likely to be expected to respond to call than a security officer. Yet, running about station will attract attention (aka, "GTFO warden and back to the brig"), so get done what you need to and do it fast and remain in the safety of the brig.

If you have a "steal" objective, there's an okay chance that someone else tried to break in and steal that item, you can just take it from them. If it's an assassinate objective, well, most people go through the brig at least once. Just stun, strip, and space them. People going entirely missing from the brig isn't usually investigated if you just say their time was up, or if that pesky security is getting on your case for all those dead assistants in your office, head to the execution chamber, grab a canister of co2, go back to brig and hook the canister up to the airflow and kill everyone in security.
If you have a "steal" objective, you more or less have to hope someone steals so you can arrest them and take it from them. If it's an "assassinate" objective, well, you have access to sec records for everyone on the station. Simply falsify a record (pray you don't get caught or traced), murder them in the safety of your brig and dump the body in space or at the gulag. So long as you weren't seen dragging the man who got 2 minutes for littering into perma, you can usually claim his time simply ran out and he was let out. If the body is found, claim self defense and have your target's corpse rot in the brig morgue.
