Scientist is one of the most feared and fun jobs on station. Being a scientist means you can either make a buttload of delicious weapons, tools and gadgets through research, breed colorful slimes, make delicious fun-packing bombs, or experiment with time and space themselves. As it is predictable with the station, most scientists are not satisfied with just blowing up their testing area and frequently go and spread their flavor of fun throughout the station. This is of course a really bad idea, often resulting in jobbans - but then again, ''delicious bombs''.

'''Gamemode in rotation'''


Darkspawn begin in a similar fashion to the [[shadowling]] gamemode, disguised as a normal crewmember with the ability to reveal their true form. If they refuse to do so within 30 minutes, the Darkspawn will be forced to reveal themselves.
'''Bare minimum requirements:''' Follow your laws and then the AI. Your laws are found in the SynthOS menu at the top left of your hud.

==The Laboratories==
===[[Guide to Research and Development|Research & Development]]===
Houses the destructive analyzer. You put stuff in it, to numbers go up. The higher the numbers, the more stuff you can produce with the protolathe and circuit imprinter.


After '''divulging''', the Darkspawn get access to the abilities: Pass, Devour Will, and the Psi network. Starting with 3 lucidities, the currency of the Psi network, the Darkspawn can purchase additional abilities from the Psi network. To gain more lucidity, using the Devour Will ability on a humanoid will grant 1 point.
With the right research levels, you can construct almost any machine on the station. You can also research upgraded parts to improve existing machines. Remember to sync the database with the network, so the [[roboticist]]s can benefit from your discoveries!


The win-goal of the Darkspawn is to use the Devour Will ability on 15-30 unique individuals (scaling with population), unlock all passive abilities, and use the Sacrament ability.
Your research efforts will cap at a certain point without minerals from mining. Coordinate with the [[Quartermaster]] or the [[Shaft Miner]]s themselves to get the minerals you need.
===[[Guide to toxins|Toxins Research]]===
This lab focuses on exploring the possibilities of [[Plasma|plasma gas]], <s>typically</s> always in the form of massive explosions. Provided to you is the [[Toxins Test Chamber]], where you can safely test your creations.


Use .w to communicate with other Darkspawn.
While bomb making is reasonably straightforward, it only takes one mistake for the entire room to become flooded with plasma or superheated carbon dioxide. Be patient and cautious.
===Abilities===
 
{|class="wikitable sortable"
Bombs have practical uses as [[Shaft Miner|mining]] charges, though they are mainly sought after by [[traitor]]s wanting to take out valuable station equipment and cause havoc.

The primary purpose of this lab is research on the breeding of [[slime]]s, the extracts of which have a variety of fun effects, by feeding them large numbers of monkeys.
|[[Image:devour_will.png|64px]]||Devour Will||'''Baseline.''' Puts a dark bead in the user's hand that they can use on a conscious human to drain psi and lucidity. The dark bead lasts 3 seconds after being prepared, you have to hit someone before then. Successfully devouring a human's will completely refills your psi and grant an additional lucidity, as well as knocking them out for 30 seconds. You can only gain one lucidity per unique individual, but devouring one again will still refill your psi. '''Careful! every point of damage they take means one (1) second of sleep taken away. Attempting to cuff them will instantly wake them up.'''||5||Baseline ability
 
|-
It also contains a pen capable of safely housing [[xenomorph]]s, in case the miners manage to locate a live facehugger. Obviously, breeding alien killing machines on the station can only end well.
|[[Image:pass.png|64px]]||Pass||'''Baseline.''' Morphs a free hand into a ''mass of tendrils that have many uses''. Examining the tendrils will detail their effects on different intents.
===[[E.X.P.E.R.I-MENTOR|Experimental Lab]]===
*On help intent, clicking a tile will throw you to it for 10 psi.
This lab houses the [[E.X.P.E.R.I-MENTOR]], used primarly for discovering the purpose of strange objects and for driving R&D crazy by constantly setting off the fire alarm in their lab.
*On disarm intent, clicking an airlock will force it open for 15 psi.
===[[Testing Lab]]===
*On disarm intent, clicking a bolted airlock will destroy it for 30 psi, with the time it takes being reduced if you have the passive pass upgrade.
A general purpose lab that goes mostly unused. It features a firing range and can be converted into a backup lab when one of the other labs inevitably blows up. Note that rebuilding Toxins in here is not going to make the crew happy, since you probably had to burn down the original first.
*On harm intent, will throw the tendrils, knocking over whoever it hits for 4 seconds.
==Tips!==
*Hitting a [[Cyborg]] with the projectile will deal 10 damage, cut their headlamp, and stun them for 2 seconds.
*'''Hey! Listen!''' ''Unless you're an antagonist, '''DO NOT''' use the bombs on the main station. You'll get banned otherwise. Refer to the [https://forums.yogstation.net/help/rules/ Rules].''
*The tendrils themselves deal 15 damage and break lights instantly in melee.
*Change the frequency of the remote signalling devices so that other scientists or saboteurs don't set off your explosives themselves.
||0||Baseline ability.
*It's possible to make bombs that utterly destroy a small area, gib only those people next to you, explode when you die, bring general ruin to entire wings of the station, and more! Experimentation is the key to a scientist's work.
|-
*You can blow up the singularity with a [[Clothes_and_internals#Backwear|Bag of Holding]]. Seriously.
|[[Image:demented_outburst.png|64px]]||Demented Outburst||After five seconds, unleashes a shockwave that blows over everyone nearby and sends objects flying. Not interrupted by movement and can only be cancelled by going unconscious.||50 psi||2
*RPEDs can be used to upgrade machines by using a screwdriver on them and then the RPED! It'll replace the parts in the machine with the next best parts in the RPED!
|-
**Using an RPED on a machine will tell you what parts it's made of!
|[[Image:simulacrum.png|64px]]||Simulacrum||Creates an illusion that mimics you and runs forward for ten seconds. The illusion is revealed when examined.||20 psi||1
**You can upgrade most machines on the station like the teleporter, SMES and even pacmans! Try it out some time!
|-
*Slimes will glomp you if you hug them enough times.
|[[Image:tagalong.png|64px]]||Tagalong||Melds with a nearby target's shadow, allowing you to "ride" them into lit areas. Use this in any way you can think of; spying, stealth. This ability is cancelled if the target enters a dark area, as they won't have a shadow anymore.||30 psi||2
*Black extract mutation toxin turns people into actual slimes, green extract's toxin only turns people into slimepeople.
|-
*Black/green slime mutation toxins work even in very small amounts, you can mix 1 unit of the toxin with 90 units of water and the resulting 5 unit injections would still have an effect.
|[[Image:silver_tongue.png|64px]]||Silver Tongue||Recalls the emergency shuttle if the Darkspawn has access to a comms console.||60 psi||1
*The slime processor and the chef's food processor are the same thing. So you can grind slimes in the chef's food processor and make fries in the slime processor!
|-
*Using water on a silver slime core will produce large quantities of booze, including those in large bottles that can be smashed for weapons with an equivalent damage output to a circular saw.
|[[Image:creep.png|64px]]||Creep||Prevents you from dying in the light as long as the ability is active. Once cast costs 5 psi per second.||5 psi||2
*If you're making a typical valve transfer bomb, don't follow the wiki precisely. Instead of using a plasma-super hot co2 combo in one tank and pure o2 in the other, use a tank with 80% o2 20% plasma and the other pure super hot co2. This way you get a better o2 to plasma ratio and devastating results.
|-
*Tank transfer valve will accept any color of large tank, and it will be reflected accurately in the sprite. It even accepts jetpacks.
|[[Image:time_dialation.png|64px]]||Time Dilation||Makes you immune to slow down and do actions faster for a minute||75 psi||3
*You can scan ANY chemical with the Odysseus and have it produce more. Even rare chems such as nanomachines or traitor poisons.

At any given moment, a scientist out there is a traitor. When half the station vanishes off the face of the map, well, you know who it was. It is recommended that you use your traitor points on items to conceal your identity, as people will want to murder and give your body to the chef after your bomb deletes your target and 3 more departments. Or, in the least, get a space suit for the huge void you just made.

==The Sacrament==
After devouring enough individuals, the Sacrament ability will be unlocked. Upon using the sacrament ability, the Darkspawn is trapped in a 5x5 square and a global sound starts to alert the crew. After approximately 30 seconds the Darkspawn will turn into a progenitor and the emergency shuttle will be called with a 1 minute timer that cannot be recalled.
==Tips==
*Get together, stay together! People will arm up and travel in groups to fight darkspawn, and one darkspawn is never strong enough to fight a coordinated security force with armory gear.
*If you can wipe out security, you're in the clear for the rest of the round. All the more reason to be ready and in force when they come hunting. Of course, picking them off one by one would be ideal, but you can't always rely on them splitting up.
*Incendiary weapons are your bane. You recover slower from burns than from brute. You don't take damage from heat, but you do from light, and fires glow. This is especially bad if you're grouped up with friends, as the fire will spread among you: so, get a fire extinguisher before you divulge.
*Also get maintenance access before you divulge. Hacking and Pass-Disarm are good and all, but maintenance means you can move through and between hideouts stealthily and under time pressure. If security is searching your maint, just run across the hall into the next one over!
*Use Devour Will in combat. It's very quick to cast, and can easily be pulled off while Pass-Harm has them on the floor. Anyone you devour not only counts to your Psi and Sacrament, but is out of the fight for 30 seconds if left undisturbed. You can also crit them before they wake up if you hit fast enough.
*Unlike shadowling thralls, Lucidities are not shared between darkspawn. Try to make sure everyone gets a taste of whoever you're able to subdue. Devour Will can't be cast on someone who's still asleep from being devoured, but other darkspawn can hop onto the same victim ''while'' Devour Will is being cast.
*The Duality sigil is strong. Not only can you now knock people down with Pass-Harm, but in the same move, you get them into Devour Will range. It also doubles your melee damage output.
*Lightward and Mending sigils are also strong, just for keeping you on your feet. You'll need every sigil eventually for Sacrament anyway, but Duality, Lightward and Mending are the best.
*Veils have no tells. The only way to know one for sure is to try to mindshield them, which deconverts them.
*If you get veils, give them any weapons you pick up. You don't need a stunbaton or cuffs to keep anyone down (Devour Will), you can't shoot guns, and you probably don't have room to carry a spear. They can use all of these to bring you more prey.
*Darkspawn don't have hearts and don't passively revive in the dark light Nightmares do. If they die, the only ways to revive them are cloning or revival surgery, both of which require a fairly heavy hold on medbay. Veil Mind is helpful for this, too.
*Plasmaman helmet lights can be extinguished by Pass tendrils, but this leaves them without a helmet - which means they catch fire - which means you have limited time to devour them before they go into crit, they're still glowing, and they can set you on fire. Don't.
*Darkspawn have no particular mobility powers except Crawling Shadows' Vent crawling, which is useless in maintenance where you will be spending most of your time, and Pass-Help, which is just a lunge. Don't get pincered. Be wary of your surroundings, including and especially what's offscreen.
*Knocking out lights all throughout the station is more of a shadowling thing. You can break any light that bothers you, are considerably more durable against light than shadowlings are, and don't rely on the dark to fly through walls, because you can't fly through walls. Don't fret too much about power, although a blackout sure doesn't hurt.
*Darkspawn's greatest strength is their mobility, tentacles and lowered damage from light with sigils. Go for maint access or try and bolt open maint doors everywhere. Hopping from one maint to another is your friend, even though light-filled corridors. Darkspawn don't have good choices against multiple targets that don't require bought abilities, so your best option is to throw tentacles or help intent and fly away.
*Duality sigil is the most important upgrade. Allowing you to throw your tentacle and have them be dragged to you. While also being dragged to the tile Infront of you, increases the paralyze from 2 seconds to 3, meaning they can't do anything, and the knockdown from 6 to 8. This gives you enough time to sleep them or reform tentacles and disarm strike to turn off their lights. Perfect for throwing at someone and running away. Also increases action speed when opening/destroying airlocks.
*Veil mind is useful if you rush after putting a point in duality. Allows thralls to play sneaky as they have no visual tell outside of their actions, and forces security to focus on mindshielding all of crew instead of hunting you down. Focus on it, or don't go it at all. With 15 being the most likely number of people you'll need to devour will, most of your 18 lucidity will be spent towards the 10 required for all of the sigils required to ascend, leaving little room for defensive abilities.
*Demented outburst. Big cost, long cast time and noise that gives you away, but perfect as a defensive move. At 100 psi, up to 125 with the sigil, using it twice is about all you have in you.  
*Creep is good for switching between areas, to jump out from maints to devour someone.
*Silver tongue allows the darkspawn to call the shuttle no matter what time it is at making this a very powerful ability especially if you are doing the veil mind rush.  
*Tagalong. Useful if you jump on someone, jump on sec as they're hunting you, or jump on a thrall. Stops working while you're in darkness, good for espionage.
**Always Acquire maint access. Always make sure you have a way out of, and into, maintenance. Pick a quiet spot to divulge, you'll have a 3x3 area around you of purple sparkles. Careful of capes, some emit light. Pick up duality and lightward sigil. Now you have a longer stun and less burning from light. Your go-to combo is to have your tentacles ready on harm intent, throw them, wait for the person to fly TO you (if you walk forward, you can be hit and stunned by them as if they were thrown AT you) and hit devour will to create an orb in your hand to click on them with. They're slept. Take their ID if they're sec/high ranking, and bolt. Sleeping people wake up in 30 seconds, each second reduced by each point of damage they take while sleeping. Disarm intent to hit lights so you don't throw yourself or the tentacle. Switch maints often. As you gain more lucidity, either pick up faster healing, faster psi regens or a defensive ability such as demented outburst. Your ascension requires UNIQUE sleeps, so don't be afraid to poke out of maints for a thrown tentacle. You WILL be found out, but darkspawn thrive on being mobile in light and their stuns. Throwing tentacles at Borgs WILL stun them and turn off their light, but you can't fight them consistently without a flash. While in maints, always have a second escape route and avoid fights where you're outnumbered. If in doubt, throw tentacles and disarm-attack people if they're hit and down, which will force them to retreat without a light. You are fast but are weak in light, meaning you need to be smart about picking your fights. Thermal vision is your best friend, and helps you poke out from maints for people staring gawk-eyed at the door.

Scientist is one of the most feared and fun jobs on station. Being a scientist means you can either make a buttload of delicious weapons, tools and gadgets through research, breed colorful slimes, make delicious fun-packing bombs, or experiment with time and space themselves. As it is predictable with the station, most scientists are not satisfied with just blowing up their testing area and frequently go and spread their flavor of fun throughout the station. This is of course a really bad idea, often resulting in jobbans - but then again, delicious bombs.
