The NanoTrasen Representative is the company's way of relaying accurate (and hopefully benign) information to their local relay outposts. As the Representative of the company, it is your job to understand CorpRegs and policy that may be requested by the other Heads of Staff. This is a desk job, and it is thankless; however, you can be the positive change necessary for the station to fight against tyrants; be it Security or a terrible Captain.
Special Disclaimer: This job role is expected to perform at a standard higher than other roles. Do not play this role if you are not prepared.
Bare minimum expectation: Listen to the complaints of crew and command staff alike, use your special status to relay intel to CentCom judicially, and do not use your special status as an excuse to do Security’s job for them.
YOUR LOADOUT
Welcome to the office, Representative. You have been selected (or volunteered, God help you) to leave the secure comforts of Central Command and act as the face of The Company’s interests on the frontier. It is, admittedly, a thankless desk job with the added perk of likely assassination attempts against you by unruly staff or Enemies of the Corporation. In order to ease the pains of the position however, Nanotrasen does issue you a few defensive measures in order to buy you time to get to the fax machine.
- Allstar SC-2 energy carbine, with stun and kill firing modes.
- Armored exclusive officer’s coat, holds your weapon and offers moderate protection.
- Your CentCom headset has a CentCom frequency shared between you, the Blueshield, and your superiors at Central Command. This frequency does not rely on telecoms.
FAX DON’T CARE ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS.
The Fax Machine is your lifeline to the outside world while on the station, and therefore is the most valuable weapon in your arsenal as a Representative. It is, however, an ammunition-hungry weapon, and is best fed only the finest, most succinct and well-written paper documents to convey your reports, ideas or other pleas for intervention.
Whether that is your own design or a pre-formatted document in paperwork repositories, you should make sure to stamp the document at the bottom to confirm your identity, otherwise your document may be tossed aside without being looked at.
The fax machine interface will show you a large number of potential entities to fax.
The only entity you should usually be faxing as a Nanotrasen Representative is the Central Command fax, often denoted as “NT Complaint Department”, “NT Internal Affairs Dept”, “NT Legal Dept” or similar. Sending your fax to foreign nations, other corporations, the IRS and other such bodies may result in a lack of response or UNUSUAL INTERVENTION.
Less likely, if you find yourself needing to perform mass bureaucracy within station confines, you can also fax the station’s numerous, own fax machines. Each department and Head of Staff usually has one.
TYRANNY OF THE MASSES
One of your primary jobs as a Representative is to handle the inquiries and complaints that the crew of the station at large may have for the Company or the command staff. Mediating these issues is essential for the purpose of maintaining good faith between the Company and its employees. Given your special status with CentCom and relative lack of bias (except in favor of the Company, of course) you can expedite the resolution of complaints and ensure that no employee finds themselves feeling up corporate creek without a paddle.
TYRANNY OF THE FEW
It is not likely, but certainly possible that a Head of Staff, or even the Captain, may overstep the boundaries of their authority as defined in the Corporate Regulations. In these situations, it becomes your duty to gather evidence and testimony of their misgivings, and inform Central Command, so a proper inquiry into their activities can be conducted, and if necessary, the offending command staff replaced.
CONCLUSION
More than anything else, Nanotrasen Representative is intended as a roleplay role. You are expected to make the most of your resources to further the roleplay environment. Where other people have higher responsibilities, you have more creative freedom to try and be the world's best workplace advisor! You are not limited to just advising the Captain on how to do their job; you can assist every other person (without taking over their jobs). So put on a good smile for the Company, and show Nanotrasen in its best light, Representative.
