Being a guard

What guards do, the tools they get, and the guard code.

Guards are picked by application. Everyone starts as an inmate.

What guards do

  • Patrol the prison and stop escapes.
  • Answer robbery alarms and bring criminals in.
  • Hold the prison during a riot.

Tools

  • Handcuffs: arrest a criminal at close range.
  • Taser: slows a target for a moment, on a cooldown.
  • The armory: guns and gear, bought with your pay and bounties.

Pay

Guards earn a salary while on duty, and the bounty of every criminal they arrest.

On and off duty

Guards can go off duty whenever they like and play as an inmate.

The guard code

  • Never help criminals: no letting friends go, no tip-offs, no passing gear.
  • Only arrest or taser players who are escaping, rioting or wanted.
  • No camping safe zones or spawns.

Breaking the code costs you the rank. See the rules.
