J O B . B O A R D :


about jobs ;



Characters do not have to take jobs in Singularity in order to live, but many will find them necessary to be able to experience many liberties. For this reason, the game offers ways to obtain work credits.

Work credits do not act as money necessarily but as chits which enable characters to freely enjoy higher-level activities. These privileges break down as follows:

work credits ; 00 01 - 09 10 - 19 20 - 49 50 - 99 100+
housing ; barracks normal apartment - luxury apartment - luxury loft
food services ; soup kitchens fast food, normal grocery normal restaurants mid-range restaurants and gourmet grocery high-end restaurants those crazy avant-garde restaurants
automaton service ; none none weekly maid twice-weekly maid daily maid and cook complete on-site automaton staff
recreation ; parks and theaters low-end bars and clubs normal nature trips mid-range bars and clubs high-end bars and clubs, luxury nature trips extreme nature trips
shuttles ; to and from planet only - free cruising - - personal shuttle
webhosting ; none basic package - deluxe package - dedicated server


ICly, the work credit system is a holdover from that used by the original human survey team. If and when Sacrosanct is fully populated, Hypatia explains, it will have a standard currency in addition to the credits system for official employees.

While credits don't hold much value in the Underworld, many employers will offer them to characters who go between Asphodel and Sacrosanct. Of course, if your character has no need for credits, they can always bargain for some other sort of compensation.

Can I buy, trade, steal or counterfeit work credits? Yep! If your character has the means and know-how, they absolutely may. Whether they get away with it is another thing, but Hypatia is often just as fascinated with renegades as she is by those who follow the rules. See the Requests page for more.


jobs on sacrosanct ;



job ; description ; credits ;
clogged ducts ; *multiple* There are several air vents and maintenance ducts around the station that are clogged with thick webbing. The webbing is semi-sticky and so maintenance drones are having difficulty clearing them. Estimate time of completion: 2 hrs per vent. 1
nest clearing ; A nest of nidadorum (space-lampreys) have attached themselves to the outside of the station. the use of drones for their removal is inefficient as it has been deemed that to prevent future infestation they should be brought back to Residential zone 15 and studied. The laborer will be granted a space-faring jet pack and suit to complete the job. There will be no replacements in case of failure. Estimate time of completion: 4 hours 2
octopi retrieval ; 15,867 tiny, rare octopi have some how gotten loose in a private pool in the Katayama zone 10. The octopi are too delicate and small to be recollected by maintenance drones, so they have to be collected manually, by hand and returned to the aquarium. These octopi can only be seen at night when they glow in a bright spectrum of neon colors. Workers are provided with small nets, buckets, and coolers. Damaged octopi will result in a reduction of credits. Estimate time of completion: 12 hrs. 2
blood donation ; *repeatable/multiple* Donating blood for the blood banks requires less power consumption than cloning blood. Paid blood donations have opened up in Residential zones 01, 05, 08, and 13. Residents of the station may donate once per week, although, frequent donation would likely result in death. A warning not exactly presented on the job description. Hypatia expects donors to have some common sense Estimate time of completion: 1 hr. 1 per week
hospital investigation ; Something is triggering motion and thermal sensors in one of the automated hospitals, but has yet to be caught on security footage.   Equipment is experiencing inexplicable battery drain and various malfunctions. Investigate and catch the source on camera for review by Hypatia. Estimate time of completion: Overnight stay (6 hours) 1-2
microchip salvage ; *multiple* Weather control consoles in several Zones have experienced burnout from recent excessive temperatures and energy expenditure. Extract delicate microchips (those that are still functional) from the burned-out equipment to be re-used in auxiliary systems.   Residential Zones contain easily accessible weather control consoles. Wilderness Zone consoles are located near the center of each Zone and can be difficult to access for someone on foot. Estimated time of completion: Variable. 1/2 credit in Residential Zones, 2 credits in Wilderness Zones
beetle collection ; *team (1-3 persons)* Hypatia has discovered the existence of a rare beetle on the surface of Asphodel. This beetle has the ability to naturally produce 23 terawatts of plasma energy per week, which would make it a very valuable asset to collect for the station. Workers are given a transport shuttle and 72 hours access to the planet, along with the ability to request whatever supplies they might need via comm link back to Sacrosanct to ensure the beetle's safe capture and transport. Estimated time of completion: No more than 72 hours 4-6 depending on condition
residential zone 12 restoration ; *multiple* DANGER. Nuclear fallout in Residential zone 12! Although the drones are underway with repairs and clean up, workers can speed along the process for compensation with credits. Several locations are in need of a radiation filter to clean the area and welders and technitions are needed to restore damages done to the ship walls, vents, flooring, and environmental controls. Workers who are not immune to radiation will be given radiation suits, although it's recommended not to spend a prolonged period in the fallout area. All tools will be provided. Estimated time of completion: Variable. 2 for radiation filters, 1-3 for repairs


Hypatia's job listings are available on Sacrosanct's official information pages on the station network. She will also occasionally make an announcement on the network requesting help for a special project. These may be solo or team missions and usually involve a reward of a significantly higher sum of credits than normal jobs.


jobs on asphodel ;



job ; description ; reward ;
smuggling ; There is an Underworld insurgent who specializes in cracking locked software. Bring him a boot disk from one of Sacrosanct's secure maintenance stations without involving anyone else. Risk level: Medium. 10 credits
organ running ; An insurgent medic is in dire need of organs, three hearts and two livers, all O-. No questions asked. Risk level: High. 1 body mod
raw materials ; A member of the insurgency is looking for 12 liters of liquid wonderflonium. You don't wanna know. Risk level: Low. freeze ray
intel gathering ; *ongoing, multiple* Lev needs some residents of Sacrosanct to gather intel on its operation for him. The reward depends on what you find. Risk level: Low. varies


Obviously, these jobs are provided as an OOC reference. Characters need to find and gain the trust of the Underworld before they can seek jobs there. Usually, this can be done by gaining the trust of Lev or hacking into one of his transmissions to find the Underworld's current location.

While many insurgents and black market types in the Underworld will offer credits to station-dwellers, these are counterfeits, and might not always have a clean paper trail. Some mods and illicit material might also have trouble being allowed back onto the station. Again, everything is a trade off. If your character finds a reward is unsatisfactory, they can attempt to bargain for a different one.



taking jobs ;


To signal a character is taking a job, just comment below with the following:



Please keep in mind that some jobs allow multiple fills, and others require characters work in teams (in which case, list everyone involved on the form). The mods may have questions about your procedure and ask for elaboration or clarification before a job can be confirmed, so please give a few days' lead before carrying it out ICly.

Players do not need to log their jobs, though of course you're more than welcome to. The important thing is just that everyone know OOCly what has been filled and collected. ♥



job suggestions ;



Have an idea for a job? Tell us here. You can suggest a job for your own character to take, or a job you think should go up on the board for anyone to apply for. Keep in mind that this is intended for jobs that Hypatia ostensibly oversees and doles out the credits for, rather than jobs involving one character hiring another. You do not need to list character to character jobs or credit transfers here unless you think they need mod approval for any reason.

To suggest a job, just comment below with the following:



Again, players are not required to log any jobs they perform, although you're more than welcome to if you'd like.



setting - gameplay - taken - application - reserves
event archive - hiatus and drop - contact - faq
maps and locations - requests - job board - deaths - suggestions




As the Job Board is undergoing several changes, all job requests posted may be considered automatically approved until further notice with the exception of Asphodel/insurgency tasks, which still need require moderator approval.

What Job Are You Taking? Relighting and live-wire repair, backdated to July 10th, de-birding backdated to July 11th.
How Are You Completing It? Considering there isn't much else for York and Delta to do but useful things, they've taken a few days to make sure they have some credits. Everything went decently well, save for the eagle one, which resulted in York being very glad he had his armor on to do it.
When Will It Be Completed By? The day these jobs were taken.

What Job Are You Taking? The escaped T-Rex
How Are You Completing It? Flash would use a length of rope and his superspeed to wrap the rope around it's legs, make it fall over and tie it up. Red will help tip him over/act as bait.
When Will It Be Completed By? 22nd August.

What Job Are You Taking? Re-lighting.
How Are You Completing It? T-800 will see he can complete the task with the skills he has on file. Sees his hand is slightly too large to complete the job and, like in the movie, will skin his hand and forearm and use his metallic skele-hand to go in there and do the job right, and fast.
When Will It Be Completed By? Sep. 10th

What Job Are You Taking? Sample collection
How Are You Completing It? She is kind of clumsy and would probably (accidentally) crush a few specimens (these would be excluded from the final collection, she's not that dumb), but flower-picking is entirely apropos for one of the few tasks this character can complete without getting herself killed.
When Will It Be Completed By? 9/14, if that's okay. (So it would be sliiiightly backdated)

What Job Are You Taking? Solar panel removal.
How Are You Completing It? A quick spacewalk would have been nice, but at least they're both vacuum rated. Shepard is pretty good at dislodging uncooperative technology, if not reassembling it, and double the hands means half the time. They'll probably take thier time, though, and get a few recon captures and set a jury-rigged transmitter adrift in the process.
When Will It Be Completed By? The same day they get clearance. (OOCly if we log it, ASAP RL permitting?)

What Job Are You Taking? sample collection!
How Are You Completing It? In the course of Thane's exploration of the station, he will take the time in the Garden to sample accordingly since all he's really doing is EXPLORING, EXPLORING, EXPLORING. He has no other demanding missions at this time.
When Will It Be Completed By? Whenever Thane is approved for the job. He'll patiently spend his time doing this.

What Job Are You Taking? Relighting and sample collection. Relighting backdated to Sep 19, sample collection to be done on the 20th.
How Are You Completing It? Effectively. Skyfire will be cheating a little. Being able to fly has it's uses, especially when it comes to relighting. Collecting samples is kind of part of his old job, so that will go smoothly as well.
When Will It Be Completed By? The day these jobs were taken.

What Job Are You Taking? sample collection
How Are You Completing It? he will be picking flowers. Most of them will be thoroughly sniffed and touched by the time he is done. He will probably collect extra because he is just a nice guy.
When Will It Be Completed By? 4 hours because he will get distracted and start exploring.

Character Journal: [livejournal.com profile] moira_brown
What Job Are You Taking? sample collecting
How Are You Completing It? taking samples with her bare hands and carefully housing them in the ridiculous overlarge backpack. Some samples may be torn or bruised. She also will likely come back wearing additional samples in a wreath around her head; For Display Purposes Only, See Fig. 1.1 (Located Above Researcher's Forehead).
When Will It Be Completed By? Between her running from things that Aren't Actually Dangerous and stumbling into things that ARE...At least a week in realtime. You will also get copious FIELD NOTES~ for your trouble. She will likely take video of everything once she figures out how. Let me know if you want what she learns to have actual potential, or just to be For Lulz Science; I am down with either.

Character Name: Shiina Tamai
Character Journal: [livejournal.com profile] seawithoutshore
What Job Are You Taking? Relighting
How Are You Completing It? It would take her longer than the suggested two hours (probably more like...seven), as she's only 13-14. It's a stupid job for a kid to take, however, she's trying to get work credits so she can buy a present for *~Akira-chaaan~*. Depending on the location of the maintenance shaft, or the depth of the lights themselves, she would probably get hurt while attempting to remove the dead lights, but nothing she can't walk away from. Kids always seem to recover fast at that age.
When Will It Be Completed By? 15 October, early evening

Character Journal: [livejournal.com profile] solvin_problems and [livejournal.com profile] rocketjumpin
What Job Are You Taking? Relighting fixtures
How Are You Completing It? Engineer would be doing a lot of the actual repair work with Soldier acting as though he already knows how to screw in a lightbulb but not being familiar with it at all. So Engineer would be trying to teach Soldier a thing or two as they go, maybe correcting mistakes if any are made. The listing estimates that it would take 2 hours, but I think it would take the two of them twice that long.
When Will It Be Completed By? November 30th

What Job Are You Taking? Relighting
How Are You Completing It? Efficiently. He's not bothered by having to climb if he needs to, and it more than willing to strip his arm down to the underarmor and take his time to get the job done perfectly. Including climbing and armor removal, it should take about 2.5-3 hours.
When Will It Be Completed By? Whenever it's approved; he can wait.

Character Name: Kaylee Frye
Character Journal: [livejournal.com profile] cupcake_dress
What Job Are You Taking? Relighting, since all the cool kids are doing it.
How Are You Completing It? Very, very quickly, possibly while singing. It'll probably take Kaylee a good ten minutes to figure out how to change the lights effectively, then another half an hour, maybe forty-five, to scuttle around and change the rest. She is very good at scuttling through tight spaces doing menial mechanical tasks.
When Will It Be Completed By? Three hours after she starts, same day. Unfortunately she will become distracted after finishing and probably get a little lost as she tries to find her way down.

What Job Are You Taking? Sample collection
How Are You Completing It? Multiple collections over the period of a day, probably bringing in as many samples as possible in a one week period. Mordin likes science and he'll probably keep a couple samples for his own research purposes.
When Will It Be Completed By? By the end of the day he starts; ASAP. He's a quick worker.

How Are You Completing It? Because he (literally) has no life, the terminator has spent it's ridiculous amount of free time exploring. He knows the wilderness, it's like Bear Grylls is a robot. And seeing as he's currently a skeleton wrapped in toasty kevlar, he can survive almost any extreme climate and terrain. Gentle Ben+Robutt = job he can does
When Will It Be Completed By? It'll take him 24-32 hours.

How Are You Completing It? With someone else's stolen cleaning supplies Virgil's plasma cutter, which she has ganked.
When Will It Be Completed By? She'll likely get distracted and take longer than two hours, especially since Virgil will be following after her in a HEATED RAGE to take back what is his. And then she'll have to save him from the spiders.

So...hard to say. In real time, whenever we get a chance to write up the log.

Also, is that 6 credits per person, or 6 credits divided between the three of them?

What Job Are You Taking? Radiation Cleanup
How Are You Completing It? Shepard's suit has radiation seals, to a degree, and she likes to dig around and get recon of heavily damaged areas. It's less suspicious than digging up the street herself, and you never know what might come in handy later. She'll go it alone, or possibly drag Garrus and/or Legion with her, and install a few scrubbers and weld some walls and flooring. Nothing particularly technical, but enough to get a good look at the damaged areas.
When Will It Be Completed By? She'll take her sweet time investigating, but even her suit isn't rated for extensive radiation bombardment. Probably about 6 hours, overall, and she'll book out when her suit starts to ping her. (Apparently we are logging this, if it doesn't clear, we can retcon.)
