Return to General Portal

Station Traits are modifiers applied to the current round which modify the game environment in some significant or meaningful way. These traits can change the starting conditions of the round including where players spawn, current character effects at round-start, and how much of certain resources are available. Other traits may add special behavior to deaths, minor adjustments to certain roles, and changes in frequency of random events. These traits are randomly decided before the round is loaded in but may be forced by Game Admins.
