'''Special Event Roles''',  sometimes referred to just '''Event Roles''' or '''Event Characters''', are admin-spawned (or admin-designated) roles with varying abilities and equipment that are given special objectives to complete. The event roles can vary from killer clowns to ancient vampires and are often custom designed to fit a specific purpose. Event roles are used to make rounds more interesting and allow players to interact with stories and worlds outside the typical round and game mechanics. Due to the extra responsibility and privilege's a player often receives from possessing a special event role, they are expected to adhere to their objectives/character more strictly and roleplay at a higher standard.
'''Note:''' this article will only cover a few of the most prominent, important, and common roles.
==Understanding Event Roles==
Event roles are always designated or created by an admin in game. Depending on the role they may have unique and powerful spells, equipment, or stats but they may also just be normal crew member with standard equipment. They always have customs objectives or directives and may have either a pivotal or trivial importance in the progression of a round. These roles should not to be confused with built-in events such as [[Sol Traders]], [[Wizard]]s, or [[Traitor]]s which are naturally occurring.
For larger events, an admin will usually provide details of the objectives and details of the event in OOC, the Event information verb, or in Dead-chat midgame. Additionally, the admin in charge of the event may PM the player directly, give them customs objectives, or leave the direction of the character mostly up to the player in control of it. Players are expected to adhere to the guidelines given to them by the administration or else they may be removed from the role for the duration of the round.
===How to Play Event Roles===
Upon being chosen to be an event role a player should take in what equipment, spells, and character traits they are offered. Players should immediately (if they have not already) determine how they should play the character both objectives and personality wise. If players are confused about what they are supposed to do and what limits are in place for what they can do, they should ahelp before continuing. Roleplay tends to be a very important aspect of non-antagonistic event roles and should be preferred over large-scale murder and destruction (unless that is what the role is supposed to do).
==Built-in Roles==
These are roles that are directly coded into the game. They are available from the outfit menu under the event tab or by right clicking a humanoid with EVENT+ permissions.
