Job Guides

Your Job is what NanoTrasen has assigned you to do aboard Virgo Orbital Research Establishment. It defines what equipment you start with, your ID card access, and what you're actually supposed to be doing.

Some useful links:

• Character Creation
• Chain of Command
• Standard Operating Procedure
• Guides
• Tips
• Job Selection and Assignment
• Identifying Antagonists

You should also read up about Corporate Regulations, so you know your rights, and Clone Memory Disorder if you happen to die and be cloned. Not doing so is considered very bad form for Roleplay.

Due to NanoTrasen equal rights laws, you might encounter some interesting new Species working alongside you.
