A vote was taken, buttons were pushed and one of the [[admin|admins]] has announced that they're taking the server for a ride. What will this entail? No one knows for sure except the admin running the event. Maybe the station will be invaded by space pirates. Maybe diplomats from the Clown Planet are here for a summit. Whatever happens, don't be afraid to play along and have fun!

If the Traitors can meet their objectives and are present and alive on a pod or the shuttle when it leaves, they win. However, being in the shuttle brig (marked with red flooring) does not count toward escaping and will cause the traitor to fail. Note that traitors win individually - they may band together and work as a team, but it is not required for them to succeed.

===[[File:Sword.gif|link=Traitor]][[File:Changeling.gif|link=Changeling]] [[Traitor]] + [[Changeling]]===
It gets worse! The station has been infiltrated by [[changeling|changelings]] ''and'' [[traitor|traitors]]! Although rare, it is possible to be '''both a traitor and a changeling'''. Traitorlings would be given 4 objectives to complete, but can use both a Syndicate uplink and their changeling abilities to accomplish them.

===[[File:Doubleagent.gif|link=Traitor]] [[Traitor|Double Agents]]===
===[[File:Doubleagent.gif|link=Traitor]] [[Traitor|Blood Brothers]]===
A group of Double Agents are implanted on the station. Each Agent has an objective to kill another Agent, then escape the station. As in Traitor, each one also has access to a Traitor Uplink, from which multiple items can be ordered to help them kill their target. No one can be trusted, not even other Agents!
In Blood Brothers, two or more crew members are '''blood brothers'''. They function similar to traitors, except they are not given a PDA Uplink. Instead, they must team up with their other blood brother(s) to '''complete their goal'''.
 
Blood brother objectives are usually a small selection of the following:
* Assassinate or maroon a specific crew member.
* Steal a restricted item.
* Have all their blood brothers group be the only ones on the Emergency Shuttle when it leaves or escape alive together.
If the blood brothers can meet their objectives and are all present and alive on a pod or the shuttle when it leaves, they win. However, being in the shuttle brig (marked with red flooring) does not count towards escaping and will cause them to fail. Note that in order to win, all of your team must succeed.
 
===[[File:Vampire.png|link=Vampire]] [[Vampire|Vampires]]===
Vampires are creatures of the night - predatory beings of occult origin who feed on crew members for their blood (if they have any). They have assimilated into the crew and must feed off of other crew members to gain new powers. Vampires worship Lilith, who in exchange for their humanity gives them immortality and eternal youth in exchange for a neverending hunger for blood. In the Vampires gamemode, crew are randomly selected to fill the role of Vampire, and are given a set of objectives fit for a vampire.

===[[File:Nuke.gif|link=Syndicate guide]] [[Syndicate guide|Nuclear Emergency]]===
A team of five '''Syndicate operatives''' has been sent on a '''mission to completely destroy the station with a nuclear bomb'''. However, they must get the [[Nuclear Authentication Disk]] from the station itself in order to arm the bomb, and the crew (or at least the captain) will be doing everything in their power to stop the attackers from getting the disk. The operatives have access to most of the same items Traitors get in order to complete their mission, as well as [[pinpointer|Pinpointers]] that will allow them to hunt for the Disk.

===[[File:rev.png|link=Revolution]] [[Revolution]]===
A small cadre of crew members have had enough of the command staff's bullshit so it's time to revolt! '''Revolutionary Heads''' (of which there will be one to three, depending on the number of Heads of Staff) are supported by [[The Syndicate]] and have been trained to use [[Flash]]es to '''brainwash the crew to join their cause''', which is to '''slaughter all the station's Heads of Staff'''. When a Revhead uses a flash on someone who isn't loyalty implanted (all security members are implanted) or a Head of Staff, they will be converted to the Revolution and will have a red R mark on them visible to all revolutionaries. Note that Revheads can use any flash to convert people, not just the one they start with. The shuttle can be called but will never arrive during this game mode.

===[[File:Shadowbeing.png|link=Shadowling]] [[Shadowling]]===
The station has been invaded by light-sensitive alien creatures FROM SPACE! Shadowlings can 'enthrall' humans, which is basically a euphemism for enslavement of their minds. They start off disguised as normal crewmen but can "hatch" to unlock their full potential, at the cost of being severely harmed by light.

*Since cultists don't know all words required for creation of runes, they need to find these words out through experimentation or get from their horrible deity by sacrificing people. As such, the crew has some time before the cult starts spreading.

===[[File:Raginmages.png|link=Wizard]] [[Wizard|Ragin' Mages]]===
===[[File:Shadowbeing.png|link=Shadowling]] [[Shadowling]]===
Ragin' Mages is a rare spinoff gamemode of the [[Wizard]] that occurs with a 1.2% chance on high population. Instead of the traditional singular wizard invading the station, the [[Backstory#Space Wizard Federation|Space Wizard Federation]] sends a '''new Wizard every five minutes'''. Each Wizard has their own '''objectives''', similar to the ones a [[Traitor]] or Blood Brother might have. The game mode is set at an extremely low occurrence rate due its difficulty.

==Other Game Modes==
Game modes which are not in the Secret rotation, but may show up if an admin sets it or it wins a game mode vote. These game modes do not appear in the normal rotation either due to them still being in development, being too powerful to normally use or they simply are unfun and/or boring.


===[[File:Nt display.png]] Extended===
===[[File:Nt display.png]] Extended===
Would be equally apt if it was named "nothing". Seriously. Nothing extraordinary happens, that's the point of this game mode.
No antagonists spawn, but the crew gets objectives to build high-tech constructions requiring the cooperation of the whole station. These include a bluespace artillery position, a station shield or a DNA vault.
 
However, in special circumstances, when the crew is [[beyond the impossible|void of griefers]] (and people who need non-stop stimulation and entertainment so they won't get bored) and the majority is competent and roleplays, it can be a very entertaining mode. The absence of blatant traitors, wizards or agents means that the whole crew can work with a peaceful mind and tackle together anything thrown at them by the game or the admins.
 
''Note: Extended rounds will still show the "Enemy Communication Intercept" -message at the beginning of the round, even if there are no antag jobs due to it being extended.

===[[File:revenant.png|link=Revenant]] [[Revenant|Umbra]]===
Someone has angered the dead! Umbras are [[ghost]]s that have been <s>name changed</s> infused with strange magical (read: alien) energies and brought partially back into the mortal plane. They are invisible to the naked eye but can still be influenced by mortal means (i.e. lockers). In addition, simple machinery or animals will recognize a Umbra's presence and be alerted to their existence. Revenants are typically immortal while invisible, but some of their spooky abilities will reveal them to the crew for brief amounts of time.

===[[File:Clownops.png]] Clown Operatives===
Clown Operatives is a version of [[Nuclear Operative|nuclear emergency]] that is currently only able to be activated by admin spawn. The objectives remain the same as the Nuclear Operatives, however Clown Operatives must detonate a bananium bomb (rather than the traditional nuclear bomb) to achieve their epic prank on the station. Unlike Nuclear Operatives, Clown Operatives can not shoot any type of gun (like the normal [[Clown]]), however spawn with a custom uplink that contains all the pranking devices a Clown Operative would need.
'''Game Ending Conditions:'''
* If the Emergency Shuttle leaves with the disk on board, the crew wins a Major Victory.
* If the Emergency Shuttle leaves with the disk still anywhere on the station, the Clowns win a Minor Victory.
* If the nuke detonates in the station successfully and the Syndicate Shuttle escapes, the Clowns win a Major Victory.
* If the nuke detonates in the station successfully but no Syndicates manage to escape, no-one wins.
'''Reason For Exclusion'''
Clown Ops is intended more as a joke gamemode, rather than the more serious gamemodes that can occur through selection at the beginning of the round.
