Assassins will need to conduct an interview with an admin before receiving the tag and being able to take contracts. Apply here.
Werewolf and Vampire Assassins
Werewolves and Vampires can become assassins, however, if they fail to execute their target, they will fall into a deep regenerative slumber that takes them out of play for one full month IRL. You must tell the admin team where you will be regenerating and you cannot move from that location during the regeneration time. You cannot pick an area for regeneration where PvP is not permitted. You cannot retire your character before the month is up, and you are defenseless against attempts made against you during that time.
The following rules are in place for all assassins:
You must provide proof that you have identified your target (through screenshot of either someone identifying them, you interacting with them and getting them to identify themselves, you confirming their identity with a third party, or some other means whereby their identity is revealed to you IN CHARACTER).
Players Who Wish to Take Out a Contract
You can talk to the questionable character in the catacombs and select the option (I have a problem I want taken care of). This will send the admins a notice. You must then open a ticket in discord, detail who you want to have assassinated, the reason, and the fee you are willing to pay. This information will be made available to assassins through the questionable character. Once your contract has been accepted you will be notified and you will need to pay half of your stated contract price to an admin. Once the contract has been fulfilled you will be contacted with proof of the contract and you will need to pay the remaining balance. The assassins will not receive any payment until the contract has been completed.
Assassins Who Wish to Pick Up a Contract
Speak to the questionable character in the catacombs and tell them you are looking to pick up work. This will send a notice to the admins. We will send you targets and contract requirements of any open contracts that are you eligible to pick up. If you choose to accept a contract, you will need to let the admins know. We will let the targeted player know there is a contract and then you will be granted permission to begin. Once you have fulfilled the contract requirements, you will receive payment. You must include any subsequent actions you take after the person has died. This cannot be unreasonable actions like burying the body or burning the body. The action can be an emote in game (if this is what you do, you must screenshot it and put it in your ticket) or you include your plan in your ticket.
Targets
If you are the target of an assassin, you will not know until the attempt on your life has been made. If you are attacked without proper PvP intent, then you may immediately respond in whatever way you want, flee, engage, plea for your life, but you cannot warp away from the encounter. There is no advanced warning that a contract has been placed, so you may not know before the attempt has been made. The rules for contracts are listed above, which means if there is a contract on you, it has been applied for, documented, and approved by the admin team ahead of time. We understand that it is frustrating when you are unsure, so if you are killed without PvP intent, immediately open a ticket and we will let you know whether the attack was a rules violation or a legitimate contract.
