Special Antagonists

Special Antagonists are a collection of individuals with direct access to the Antagonist system, supported by Staff tools and requested by Admin Help. Staff are not Special Antagonists by default.

Depending on their allowances, they may have permanent access to an Antagonist type, or permission to request Antagonist statuses when the general and recent threat to the Station allows it.

These are unique cases. A list of all currently active Special Antagonists and their permissions can be found on the Discord in #roster. Staff are to verify the position on the roster before assisting.

Special Antagonist Status is only available by offer from a Head Admin. It may be revoked at any time, for any reason. You can get offered this status by being a notably good-for-Nova Antagonist player.

Locked Roles

Not currently run, but still in the game. You will likely not see these roles. Please do not request them.

Antag Type	Description:	Special Rules:	Protections:	Meta-Objectives
Clock Cult	Description: You are a worshipper of arts that can only be explained through the conclusion that conjuration exists. Your goal is to satisfy your masters and further your arcane knowledge.	Special Rules: Clock Cultists cannot ascend. Achieving any Area of Effect Aura, such as those which cause forced laughing or stamina drain, turns you into a Station Threat with PMS.	Protections: Your clothing isn't suspicious, people wear weird things all the time. Your weapons, methods, and interactions with your deity and greater powers are extremely suspicious. Metaknowledge: None currently.	Metaobjective: None currently.
Sunwalker / Heliarch	Description: You are solar corona taken physical shape, body hardening through sheer condensed mass. Full of power and the rage of nearby stars, vent your fury on the hapless station and it's inhabitants.	Special Rules: You are not permitted to navigate true diplomacy. You are here to cause destruction.	Protections: None currently. Metaknowledge: It is almost a guarantee that if you see a Sunwalker that it has been tuned with admin tools to be significantly more dangerous than you will see in code. Anticipate a Max Health ~1000-2000, with an added Regenerator component. Given the Sunwalker is made of literal fire and plasma, nearly all weapons will prove ineffective. Sunwalkers are totally immune to energy and laser weapons and are only moderately affected by ballistics. Sunwalkers should always have total susceptibility to explosives. Yes, that means the correct answer to a Heliarch is a TTV or Grenades.	Metaobjective: Remain a constant nuisance. Destroy everything you can reach. Achieve Red Alert and ERT call.
Wizard	Description: You are a fringe survivor of a dead federation, maintaining the old practices. Gone are the days of warfare, you exist in an age of survival.

Nuclear Operatives	Description: You are an elite Syndicate operative seeking to destroy the station.	Special Rules: If you somehow become a nukie and staff didn't provide it to you, ahelp. Don't go out of your way to kill EVERYONE unless via the nuke. (Only do what you have to do to get the nuke on, and keep it on).	Protections: None currently. Metaknowledge: None currently.	Metaobjective: Destroy the station.
