Traitor: Difference between revisions

For whatever reason you've decided to sell out the people you live and work with, most likely for personal gain. You will be given a number of dangerous goals by your new [[Syndicate]] employer which you must complete. Should you complete your objectives and still want more to do, pray to the [[Terminology#Admin|gods]] for additional objectives.

Your target MUST be dead when the shuttle docks at Centcom. Don't forget that your station has experimental cloning technology that may or may not be working.

'''FUCK.''' The Syndicate wants you to hijack the [[Escape Shuttle]] by escaping alone. This is going to be so much more difficult. There are two basic ways to approach this problem. The first is to simply [[robust]] anyone who tries to board the shuttle. It seems easy at first, but once you're dealing with a tide of panicked crew trying to escape the singulo/changelings/malfunctioning AI the problem becomes exponentially more difficult. Your second option is to seal off the escape shuttle. Build walls in front of the windows, [[guide_to_hacking|hack]] the shuttle airlocks to drop the bolts and find some way to make the rest of the shuttle inhospitable. A combination of both of these approaches can be sufficient 90% of the time. Don't forget that you can emag the shuttle's console (or swipe it with three different [[Heads of Staff]] IDs) to force the shuttle to launch after a quick 10 second countdown.

Alright, you know your objective! Time to accomplish that goal! The Syndicate treats you much better than Centcom. You have 20 Telecrystals built into your PDA, pen or headset itching to be spent on traitory goods. '''To access your uplink from the PDA, go to the IC tab in the actual Byond window and click on the Notes tab. Get the code from the notes window and enter it into your PDA ringtone. If your uplink is on a pen, you'll find the degrees to twist the pen in the Notes tab. If your uplink is on your headset, you will find the frequency to tune to in order to access the headset. REMEMBER TO LOCK THE UPLINK!''' Check [[Syndicate Items]], for a more detailed description on the goods. But don't go racing off to order those items ASAP; people are more clustered in the beginning of rounds and the AI is probably wondering how it switches cameras and the Captain is off huffing paint somewhere. Although it can be useful to get items early, holding off until you need the item also has merit, so 6 crystals don't get wasted on an emag when you find the captain's spare ID on that assistant you just killed.

Another thing to note is that you can dispense raw telecrystals in groups of 1, 5 and 20. Raw telecrystals can be reinserted into an active uplink by just smacking it up against it. This is only useful for interacting with fellow traitors, and some items like Romerol can only be purchased with more than 20 telecrystals. You can either ask them nicely for telecrystals, or rob them while they have their uplink open. Should there be any [[administrators|admins]] around, you can exchange your raw telecrystals in hand for special things that can't be normally bought from an uplink (such as a bluespace locker) through prayer or through Ahelping them. Bear in mind there is no actual system in place for this, so trades are up to the discretion of whatever admin responds, so don't push your luck and try to trade 20 TC for an AA roundstart everytime.

Blood Brothers is a variant of Traitor where you are bound to work with another random person on the station. Together you and some random traitor will work together to pull off any of the regular traitor objectives. '''It should be noted that you will not receive an uplink''' and will be forced to work with only the station, much like a 0TC traitor run.

 

Internal Affairs Agents start the round with an objective to assassinate another agent and a 20TC uplink. If you successfully assassinate an agent, you're granted 5 TC and given another agent to go after. You're given a pin pointer in the top right of your screen that points to the location of your target. If your target has left the Z-level, is in a blue space locker or a blue space body bag, the tracker will appear with a black blinking question mark.

Alright, here's the situation. Let's say that your objectives are to kill someone, and to escape alive. Very simple, and they give you a lot of leeway in terms of the method of assassination. This means you could kill your target in a multitude of interesting and different ways! Here's a few examples:

<li>Reverse pickpocketing doesn't produce a message for people you try it on (unless it fails). You can reverse pickpocket mini-bombs onto people. You can start the timer on the mini-bomb after you start shoving it into their pockets.</li>

<li>Energy Swords and circular saws can be used to make sawed-off shotguns. Energy Swords can also cut cakes, pizzas and light cigars.</li>

<li>The Suspicious Toolbox does fifteen damage instead of ten, making it as strong as a circular saw or a null rod.</li>

<li>The entirety of Disposals can easily be routed into space in certain maint areas, and you need only stun and drag people to a disposal bin to instantly kill them. Disposals can be a very potent weapon if used correctly, and there are plenty of other ways. You just need to find them.</li>

<li>Lockers do not protect from space and atmosphere. So stun-locker-weld-space is a valid strategy.</li>

<li>Shoving a corpse into a locker, body bag or buckling to a chair/roller bed then dragging that object about leaves no blood trail.</li>

<li>Shooting syringes of [[Guide to xenobiology|black slime]] juice will turn the person into a slime. Combine this with that one icy reagent or a docility potion and bam, you just murdered someone.</li>

<li>After gaining a bag of holding from R&D, you can cut it in half with a '''Scalpel''' or '''Circular Saw'''. This allows you both to carry one, effectively making you and whoever has the other half share an inventory, which is very effective for a pair of blood brothers.</li>

<div style="clear:both"></div>  

 

<li>If your objective is to steal the nuke disk, steal the [[pinpointer]] as well. The reason should be self-evident.</li>

<li>"Steal plasma" is the easiest objective; grab an emergency O2 tank or an air tank, stuff it in a public scrubber until it's empty. Grab 10 sheets of metal, go to incinerator, make a canister, attach the canister to the port, activate the plasma valve, stuff the tank into can, set pressure to max, open, wait, close, remove, win/die because you used it for internals.</li>

<li>Instead of just cutting the wires for the vault, you can just grab a toolbox, mesh, and one of those budget insulated gloves and break in from the window. However, this is only works on box stations. </li>

<li>The secret documents can be located inside a file cabinet in a vault along with a nuclear core.</li>
