Antagonists are the primary driving force behind action aboard the station. Assistants too.

''<big>You're not expected to win; do not expect it, just have fun with it.</big>''


This section is the most important section, and pertains to your general conduct as an antagonist. These rules have precedence over all of your actions while playing as an antagonist on SPLURT. Antagonists are still subject to all other OOC, roleplay, ERP, etc. rules.
ERP rules are important, and must be read before engaging in sexual conduct with another player. ERP rules are some of our most harshly punished rules, due to the nature of the actions they pertain to.


'''At minimum, you should be familiar with these rules'''. If you are confused about these rules, please ask a staff member in [https://discord.com/channels/908082639704064051/1062140155441451129 #staff-questions], or make a [https://discord.com/channels/908082639704064051/952356538016747550/952359401883312218 discord ticket].

| colspan="3" |Antagonists may choose to be friendly to crew, but receive no special staff protections.
| colspan="2" |You must have either OOC or IC consent before engaging in any sexual action with another player, and/or utilizing features with an intended or inherent sexual on or against another player.
|If an antagonist has demonstrated themself to be friendly, security cannot break this roleplay on the sole basis that the antagonist is an antagonist. Escalation rules apply.

|0.1.1.
|
|
| colspan="2" |If you have posed as friendly toward others, you must escalate properly in order to reset your status, regardless of your antagonist type.
|In accordance with this, sexual actions that indiscriminately interact with, impact, or are shown to other players are banned.
|For example, a traitor that has roleplayed surrendering may not suddenly start killing again without proper escalation.
This does not extend to coercion or otherwise roleplaying your way to freedom, such as managing to manipulate a security officer to remove your handcuffs before murdering them.
|
|-
|0.2.
| colspan="3" |Antagonists may not friendtag. Friendtagging is defined as an antagonist cooperating with security in order to perform the role and function of security against threats that do not directly oppose them.
|This means that a traitor could help security kill a blob, but could not help security kill a bloodsucker.
|
|-
|0.2.1.
|
| colspan="2" |Antagonists with opposing objectives are permitted to fight among themselves, separate from security.
| rowspan="2" |Colluding with security to achieve an objective is valid, but antagonists doing so can still violate rule 0.2. should they pursue any irrelevant security actions.
|
|-
|0.2.2.
|
| colspan="2" |Antagonists with the same, exclusive objective (i.e., steal the Chief Engineer's blueprints) are permitted to fight among themselves, separate from security.
|
|-
|0.3.
| colspan="3" |If you murder someone in an open area (likely to be discovered in 15 minutes) and do not mechanically require access to their body, the loot on their body (including items in its possession), or mechanically require their body to perform an antagonist function (such as changeling sucking) then you '''must''' leave their body alone.
|If you murder someone in a closed or hidden area (not likely to be discovered in 15 minutes), you '''may''' move the body to a more discoverable location, but this is not required.
|
|-
|0.3.1.

|
|
|-
|0.4.
| colspan="3" |You may not round-remove (RR) players without their explicit consent, whether through their round removal (RR) prefences being set to "Yes", or them telling you via (L)OOC.
|Non-antagonists have different rules for round removal.
|
|
|-
|0.5.
| colspan="3" |You must not taunt, insult, salt, or otherwise demean or dispirit other players, regardless of circumstances.
|While this covered by the general, OOC rules, this is specifically repeated so that antagonists who lose fights are neither insulted nor insult others.

|-
|0.9.1.
|
| colspan="2" |This is a blanket rule for any poor-faith antagonist gameplay that comes as a result of antagonists unfairly exploiting game mechanics or roleplay in order to achieve their objectives ("greentext"). Staff are encouraged to use their best judgement when enforcing this rule.

|
|Antagonists simply going about their objectives in a normal manner (for example, shooting an assassination target to death) should not be impacted by this rule.
|
|
|
|-
|0.9.3.
|
|Antagonists should not go out of their way to unfairly deprive other players of their gear (tools, job machinery, etc.) for purely mechanical gain.
|
|For example, an antagonist cannot destroy the chemistry department so medbay can no longer revive officers, but may incidentally destroy part of it to kill an assassination target chemist.

| colspan="3" |You must not loot space ruins. Space-tiding is permitted, but most players have no reason to do so as an antagonist, as you are disallowed from taking loot.

| rowspan="7" |1 - Antagonist Objective Rules
|1.1.
|1.1.
| colspan="3" |You must ensure custom objectives are appropriate to your antagonist role, the roleplay setting, and do not avoid antagonist actions in full or rebuke the fun of others.
| colspan="2" |The in-game non-con preferences "Non-con - Yes", and "Non-con - Yes (Position)" allow other users to skip escalation for sexual purposes.

|ERP rule 0.1.3. still applies and the revocation of OOC consent must be respected regardless of preferences; however, the initial interaction will not constitute a violation of the rules.
|Natural objectives may override this rule.
|
|-
|1.1.2.
|
| colspan="2" |You must not avoid performing antagonist actions, or subvert the purpose of an antagonist role by setting a custom objective that is entirely mundane and non-antagonistic.
|For example, the custom objectives "have sex", "Protect [ERP partner]", or "Behave for security and obey Nanotrasen".
|
|-
|1.1.3.
|
| colspan="2" |You must ensure that custom objectives are appropriate to your specific antagonist role. For example, a bloodsucker should not have a custom objective to help the syndicate.

|For example, arresting someone who failed to strong-arm the Captain into dorms is permissible.
Either party unduly interrupting a hostage or captive roleplay scenario must do so showing clear intent to escalate to mechanics. A good way of doing this is the Combat Indicator, but this should be done by giving grace and making it clear that this is going to happen through roleplay prior regardless.

ERP rules are important, and must be read before engaging in sexual conduct with another player. ERP rules are some of our most harshly punished rules, due to the nature of the actions they pertain to.
