You are quite the sophisticated actor.
You use nothing but your actions to prove your point! If only that clown didn't get in the way...

As the mime, you start off the shift in the leisure section of the station (along with that damn clown), the theatre will have all your costume needs.


Your main job on the station is to provide sophisticated yet astonishing entertainment for the crew.

How to Mime RP

The detective has you in the interrogation room, you are the only witness of a murder, how do you tell him what happened?

Bad example of miming: Mime acts out suspect stabbing the victim
Better example of miming: Mime makes a swinging motion as if to stab someone, and points to the suspect.
Great example of miming: Mime appears to pick something up, and swings his arm in an aggressive motion, and points to the suspect.

How to get back at that stupid clown!

Throughout the round the clown will always be trying to trip you with a banana, or honk his horn in your face, well, use your sophisticated hand speak to show him what's what! Take that banana and shove it up his, err, Honk?
Either way, there are plenty of ways to deal with that clown, you could frame him by planting some evidence near a body! You could use your hand speak to confuse him, or use his own tools on him, be creative, and make it entertaining!

The Vow Of Silence

The mime is unable to speak until you press the speech button within the menu of the right side, but in doing so, whether you talk afterwards or not, you will lose touch with your powers! That means no more sophisticated invisible walls and what-not! Uh oh! The mime holds to his oath, mime is intended more for RP than a beginners job.

Emotes

You can use the "me" command to emote anything you'd like,
Example: "/Me Puts hands on his head" comes out as "Mime Puts hands on his head"
There are also some emotes in the game, some with special effects! Just use say and an asterisk before your emote, ex. "Say *blink" (or use one of the below). Remember that as a mime, you are not to use the "Me" to talk, such as "/Me help someone's killing me", this will get you bwoinked.

Mime Traitor (AKA, The Silent Killer)

Being a mime traitor is both easy, and hard.. You are the last one anyone would expect! but your lack of access leaves you at a great disadvantage.. But perhaps you could use your hand speak to persuade the clown to trip your target? Be creative, you sophisticated little mime, you!
