Writing is an integral part to paperwork and writing books! If you want to write an official department memo, or a good looking book, you're gonna have to know how to write it. Listed below are the examples of how to properly format in-game paperwork! We do not enforce the use of these examples exactly. This is to simply to give you a good base to work from. Much of this work has been siphoned off from many different places in the SS13 community. Notable examples being two Separate Baystation -- forum posts, and parts of the Polaris wiki. These examples already have most of the special notation included,To properly understand how the notation works, you will need a basic grasp of BBCode or HTML. But don't worry, even if you don't know either, just try copy pasting the examples and replacing the text with your own! Once you're comfortable with that, try experimenting with what works together and how.

Writing tools and Formatting key

Writing is performed on paper using any standard writing utensil.

  • Pens come in a few different colors, black or blue by default, and some departments are provided with red pens. Pens have a variety of functions!
  • Crayons work much like pens, except that they are always bold, and lack the list, horizontal rule, and small tags.

Formatting Paper:

Signature

To sign your name, use the [sign] tag. Remember that if you use the [sign] tag, your signature is unique and cannot be forged in most cases. 

Your signature: [sign]

Field

To insert a field from which you can start writing (instead of just using the bottom of the paper), use the [field] tag. 

Reason for Request: [field]

New Lines

New lines can be created by using the [br] tag. Without this, anything you write will continue on the same line until it reaches the end of the page.

[br]
text below

Bold

To make text bold, enclose it within the [b] and [/b] tags. 

[b]This text is going to be bold.[/b] This text is not.

Italics

To italicize text, enclose it within the [i] and [/i] tags. 

[i]This text is italicized.[/i] This text is not.

Underlining

To underline text, enclose it within the [u] and [/u] tags. 

[u]This text is underlined.[/u] This text is not.

Centering

To center text, enclose it with the [center] and [/center] tags. 

[center]Type the center tags onto the paper like this![/center]

Lists

Create a list by using the [list] and [/list] tags. For every entry in your list, add a [*] in front of your entry. For example; 

[list][*]Bullet one.[*]Bullet two.[/list]

Large Text

Make text larger, enclose it within the [large] and [/large] tags. Large text like this can be used for emphasis or for titles. 

[large]This text is much larger[/large] than this text.

Small Text

To shrink text, enclose it with the [small] and [/small] tags. Shrunken text can be used to fit more information onto your paper. 

[small]This text is very small![/small] This text is normal-sized.

Horizontal rules

To add a horizontal rule, use the [hr] tag.

To add the NT logo, use the [logo] tag.

DOCUMENT EXAMPLES BELOW THIS POINT

Character Records

First you should take a look at the information your character should have before starting their first day working on station. ("should" Meaning that this paper work is entirely optional, but would greatly help you and others when role-playing.) Your character should have the following records: Employment, Medical and Security! These should be filled out as if they were being written about your character from a NT or another corporation staff member's point of view. While we do not enforce how these records are written, Just like your actual character please make sure your records fit with our stations "canon" and "rules".

Employment:

(Note:Like with Security records do not put information you would not want other characters to openly know. "I WORKED AS A SMUGGLER FOR THE PIZZA THE HUT!" is probably not a thing that would be on your records.)

Medical:

(Note: Please try and keep illness and disability with-in the scope of our setting. Do not include something that can not be easily recreated within in-game mechanics or easily role-play able. An example being "Needing to breath something other then oxygen to survive." Can be easily RP'ed with a empty oxygen tank and mask. While having something like "tesh-pox" that causes you to instantly transform into a Teshari when someone sneezes would not work.)

Security:

(Note: this should only contain Information you WANT security to know about you. Do not fill it with any information that you would like to be kept as a... "Surprise" A example would be "Known to steal things..." Verses "...Is the freaked Lupin the 3rd of  Virgo-Erigone!")
