''No, I didn't give all-access to the Clown, nor did I give all of the Assistants access to the Toxins lab. What do you take me for, a liar?''

You are the Head of Personnel. You are the one on the left. The one on the right is a dog. You are not a dog. Your main responsibility is to sit in your [[Head of Personnel's Office|office]] and listen to people request access to X area or ask for Y job. You are also in charge of making sure the [[Quartermaster]] is managing the supply sector well and that each civil department is working. Should the worst come to pass, as well, you will need to assume command of the station as acting Captain. High in access and low in responsibility, they are often seen running around other people's departments, evading security and angry crewmembers alike, their motivations only known to themselves.
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">You are the Station's Head of Personnel, or HoP for short.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">You are a station head, and hence play one of the most vital roles on the station. Your duties include:</p>
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">1.) Managing the ID access associated with every employee's [[ID]]. </p>
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">1.) Managing the civilian ([[chaplain]], [[clown]], [[mime]], [[lawyer]], [[barkeep]], [[chef]], [[botanist]], [[librarian]]) and [[Cargo Tech|cargo]] [[Quatermaster|supply]] departments. </p>
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">2.) Managing [[Assistant|crew]] [[Clown|relations]] [[Mime|issues]] and complaints.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">3.) Making sure the correct balance of Job positions is available on station.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 2em;">4.) Keeping your lovable corgi companion, [[Ian]], Alive and happy!</p>


'''Bare minimum requirements:''' Stay at your desk for the first 10 minutes, and don't wander off far.

=== ID Changes ===
Your primary purpose is to sit at your desk and process people's requests for access. People often wish to change jobs, or require additional access in order to do their job more effectively (or further their dirty Syndicate goals). It's also your responsibility to wipe access from the IDs of troublemakers at the request of other heads.


People will come to you with requests ranging from outlandish to mundane, so use your brain (or just hand out access like candy at a parade and get arrested).


If you want to maintain a good relationship with the other heads, ask them over the command channel for any objections before assigning someone to their department. Note that you may be held accountable if you give out access to a department without authorization from its head. Use common sense: [[maintenance]] access isn't a big deal, access to [[Toxins Lab|toxins]] is.

==== Your ID ====
It may be wise to make yourself a captain-level ID. A quick way to do this is to set your job to "Captain" then click "Custom" for job title and enter "Head of Personnel".
 
Bear in mind that access is not equivalent to permission, and security may arrest you and throw you in the brig or the [[captain|comdom]] may demote you if you're seen waltzing into high security areas you're not supposed to be in. Talk to the head of the department you're visiting, and ask before taking anything valuable.
 
=== Job Slots ===
Your ID console has the ability to open and close slots for most jobs. This is useful for <s>opening infinite clown positions oh god</s> situations where no more positions remain available (for large crews), where an extra [[janitor]] or [[engineer]] or whatever might be useful, or where a crewmember is incapacitated, incompetent, dead, traitorous, demoted or a chucklefuck.
 
=== Departmental Management ===
Technically you're supposed to be in charge of the civilian and supply departments. Nobody in these departments is going to listen to whatever stupid orders you give, but feel free to befriend the quartermaster by opening secure crates for them, smoke weed with the botanists, or take a relaxing break on the mining asteroid.
 
=== Backup Captain ===
If the real Captain is dead, missing or never arrives, it's your job to step up and take their place. When you spawn at the start of the round, the first thing you should do is check whether there's a Captain. If there isn't, make sure that after giving yourself access you run to the [[Captain's Quarters]] to secure the nuke disk and the captain's spare ID. You do not want to be "that guy" when the station explodes as the nuke ops find the disk sitting exactly where it spawned.
 
=== Crew Relations ===
Due to your low workload compared to other heads, it's a good idea to always pay attention to general radio. People will often try to use this to summon you to your office when they need an ID upgrade. Aside from that it never hurts to have an awareness of what's going on around the station. Chat with the crew so they know you're not the stereotypical helmeted all-access mute that has come to epitomize the position.
 
=== Security ===
If security is low on officers, or when shit really hits the fan you can help make up the numbers. You have access to security lockers and security records, so make sure you grab a security HUD, security encryption key, and carry plenty of handcuffs (lasering someone to death because you didn't have the foresight to bring enough restraints is incredibly shit). Remember that your high level of access is a double-edged sword: if you get yourself trapped or killed somewhere that security officers can't access, they won't be able to rescue you, so be careful.
 
(Also, everyone will hate you for playing HoPcurity.)
 
Even if you're not playing officer, you have a lot of power to respond to an emergency. Order the AI to bolt EVA open, order relevant supplies from cargo, and hand out extra access to security and engineers.
 
=== Ian ===
Just so we're clear. Ian is ''your'' little buddy. Protect him from the [[traitor|various]] [[assistant|dangerous]] [[clown|criminals]], and make sure he escapes on the shuttle alive. This is your most important job of all.
 
== Taking a Stroll as John Doe ==
When [[Revolution]] abounds, you will be one of the more well armed and threatening heads. A tendency for disappearing acts makes the Head of Personnel usually the hardest head to kill.
 
You first move should be to [[Guide_to_construction#Computers_2|deconstruct]] your ID console and [[Guide_to_construction#Computers|reassemble]] it somewhere more secure (probably [[Security_Office|security]]). Leave an ID computer ID in it so security officers, heads and the implanted can give themselves all-access.
 
If shit hits the fan and you need to hide, pick a job where it's natural to be wearing a mask that hides your face. [[Scientist]], [[engineer]], [[mime]] and [[clown]] are all good examples. Make yourself a Captain ID with that job title and a false name. Travel to where the equipment lockers for that job are kept, and get dressed. Put your old clothes and equipment in your old backpack and put it into the locker, locking it after you're finished. If you leave your Head of Personnel's jumpsuit lying beside an open Engineer locker, anyone who sees it will figure out what you're disguised as. If you want to be an even more stealthy HoP, head to genetics and turn a monkey into a human. Proceed to stab yourself with the UI+UE of said monkey. Then just go and use your ID console to get an all access ID with your new name on it.
 
<s>If you're the last remaining head, in the interest of fair play, you should try to escape the z-level instead of extending the round for your own benefit at the expense of all the dead people stuck sitting out. This will cause the revolutionaries to win, but you will survive. Self-preservation is a valid reason for ending the round.</s>
Fuck that shit, grab the nearest blunt object or gun and go out in a blaze of glory
 
== Cult ==
You have the ability to mass produce all-access IDs, and you do not start the round loyalty implanted. As a result of this, you are a prime target for conversion. As soon as you hear that a cult has been discovered, move your ID console to security and get yourself implanted, assuming security hasn't been consumed by eldritch horrors.
 
== Inhuman Resources ==
Short of a Chief Engineer tasked with stealing his own blueprints, traitor HoP is the easiest traitor job on the station. Give yourself all-access, use cargo for free guns, try to become acting captain and turn the station into your personal playground of terror.
