What are CentCom Jobs?
CentCom jobs are RP roles played exclusively by admins.
They are a way for admins to act in the name of CentCom, and guide the round in a direction that will be more fun for players.
They are much like GM-controlled NPCs in an adventure game.
Interaction With The Cyberiad Crew
- CentCom officers outrank absolutely everyone on station, no exceptions.
- CentCom officers have almost unlimited IC authority, including the authority to change, modify, or even nullify space law and/or SOP for the current round.
- CentCom officers can be of any race, including some races not normally playable.
- CentCom officers prefer to interact with the rest of the crew through radio and faxes. Most would only visit the station if there is a serious problem that requires sorting out.
- CentCom officers usually, but not always, wear the standard uniform for their title.
- CentCom officers can be disobeyed by the crew, but, since they are the origin of the phrase "Violation of this directive is grounds for termination of your contract and life", doing so is usually a bad idea.
Example CentCom Jobs
| Appearance | Role | Typical Duties | Beret |
 Navy Officer |
Standard role that handles most CC work. Some do investigations, others diplomacy, intelligence, internal affairs, etc. This is who the Captain of the Cyberiad reports to. |
Answering CC faxes & comm messages. Investigating incompetent Captains. |

 Special Operations Officer |
Managing teams sent out by CC. This is who ERT commanders and Deathsquad officers report to. |
Send, brief and direct ERT/DS. Release (or not) the nuclear codes. |
|
 Diplomat |
Managing relations with aliens and other factions. This is who has to clean up major diplomatic incidents the crew cause. |
"No, Syndicate, the Captain was kidding about wanting nuclear ops". "Thank you, SWF, for your gifts. No more are necessary." |
None |

In theory, they command the military ships of the NT Navy. In practice, they usually lead teams of Navy Officers. |

Background
- IC-wise, CentCom ("CC" or "Central Command") is known as the NAS Trurl. The 'NAS' means 'Nanotrasen Administrative Station'. It handles the management/admin for all stations in the Epsilon Eradani system.
- So, it is the headquarters of NT's presence in the system.
- So, it is fortified much more heavily than the Cyberiad.
- So, everyone stationed on it is equipped with pulse weapons, mindshields, and special implants that vaporize them if they are killed or captured. Even the desk workers carry pulse pistols.
- So, while CentCom characters are not generally intended to see direct combat, they are exceptionally well prepared for it if it does happen. Attacking one is probably a spectacularly bad idea.
