===Your | ===Your Equipment=== | ||
As a member of the Spider Clan, your technologically advanced, cybernetically-enhancing suit is everything to you. | As a member of the Spider Clan, your technologically advanced, cybernetically-enhancing suit is everything to you. Included with it is a pair of ninja gloves, a pair of ninja boots, a ninja hood, and a ninja mask. These items work in conjunction with the suit. The hood, for instance, makes you untrackable by the AI, while the gloves allow for special interactions with objects or creatures. | ||
None of your suit's functions are available until you '''Initialize''' it in the 'Ninja Equip' tab. | |||
Aside from your suit, you have a number of items at your disposal. There is an energy katana at your waist. It inflicts 40 brute damage per attack, can deflect projectiles in the same way an energy sword can, and may be recalled to you whenever you lose it with an ability in your 'Ninja Ability' tab aptly named 'Recall Energy Katana'. It also has all of the functions of a [[cryptographic sequencer]], so you can open doors with it, among other things. It also deals twenty brute damage when thrown. You have a brick of C4 and a flashlight in your pockets, an emergency oxygen tank on your belt, and a C02 jetpack on your back. | |||
Your suit runs on electricity and consumes it for its many abilities. To recharge your power supply, '''Toggle Interaction''' under the 'Ninja Equip' tab and click on a power wire, APC, mech, power cell, or SMES unit. Doing so will filter power from that object into you. | |||
By default your suit runs on a 10,000-capacity power cell and thus can only hold 10,000 units of electricity. You can upgrade your suit's battery by enabling interaction, then grabbing any power cell of greater capacity than your current one and using it on your ninja suit. | |||
===Your Abilities=== | |||
Some abilities are accessible under the 'Ninja Equip' tab, and others may be found under 'Ninja Ability'. All are accessible as command-line verbs. | |||
* Smoke Bomb: Drops a smoke bomb that obstructs vision and allows your escape. You get ten. Use them wisely...or throw a ninja | * Phase Jaunt: Teleports you up to nine squares ahead in the general direction you're facing. Also generates a spark shower, so don't try this anywhere near plasma. You can bring people along with you if you grab them beforehand. Anyone in the destination you Jaunt to will be wounded. Cost: 10% power | ||
* Adrenaline Boost: This undoes paralysis, stunning, extreme cold, and basically anything else that would affect your movement. | * EM Burst: Creates a 4-square strong, 6-square weak electromagnetic pulse. EMP disables radios, cameras, energy-based weaponry and hurts silicons. Cost: 25% power | ||
* Create Throwing Star: 3D-prints a permanent throwing star of the same sort a traitor can purchase. These deal thirty brute damage and embed into people when thrown, inflicting further damage over time. Cost: 1% power | |||
* Recall Energy Katana: Recalls your energy katana to you. The cost of this ability is variable based on how far you are from the katana, but can never exceed 100%. If the katana is onscreen when you use this ability it will be thrown in your direction, hitting anyone in the way. | |||
* Smoke Bomb: Drops a smoke bomb that obstructs vision and allows your escape. You get ten. Use them wisely...or throw a ninja party! | |||
* Adrenaline Boost: This undoes paralysis, stunning, extreme cold, and basically anything else that would affect your movement. | |||
* Energy Net: This ability is not listed under either tab, and can be accessed by right-clicking a player. It entangles them in an energy net which will after about thirty seconds teleport them to ninja prison. They and others can attack the energy net and remove it during this period, so make sure to restrain or sedate them beforehand. | |||
===Your Objectives=== | ===Your Objectives=== | ||
Ninjas generally have six objectives, unless they were created by an administrator. You will either be assigned to help or harm the station. This is determined by whether your employer is Nanotrasen or the Syndicate. Irrespective of who your employer is you're allowed to engage anyone regardless of their loyalties. | |||
The objectives: | |||
* Steal research levels: You will have to steal between 10 and 20 levels of Research from RnD. Depending on if the scientists bothered to do research you may have to do it yourself, or coerce someone into doing it. Sometimes your mere presence will start research; eg. "NINJA ON STATION, R&D START WORK ON LASER CANNONS." | |||
To steal the research, simply click the RnD Terminal with special interaction enabled and you will automatically download the research. This takes a while. | |||
* | * Protect a target: An assignment for Nanotrasen-employed ninjas. Prevent the target's death. | ||
* | * Assassinate a target: An assignment for Syndicate-employed ninjas, or Nanotrasen-employed ninjas assigned to kill an antagonist. Ensure the target dies. | ||
* | * Capture a target: Capture someone using the Energy Net ability. | ||
* | * Survive until round end: Simple, just don't die. | ||
* | * Steal a high risk item: Just what it says on the tin. Steal some magboots, secret documents, or whatnot. | ||
As with all antagonist objectives, these are optional. But before you go indiscriminately test out your energy katana on the faces of the crew, consider that playing as a space ninja is a rare opportunity you may not get to indulge in again for a long while. | |||
