+## Taking Charge
+Congratulations on your promotion! Besides all the extra paperwork, your new [color=#a4885c]responsibilities[/color] include running your department, making changes and choosing priorities, keeping personnel and equipment safe as well as slacking off while your cronies do all the work.
+
+Don't forget, you still have a job! Your fancy tools don't earn you a day off, you still have to fill in for any staffing shortages, helping out struggling workers and teaching the newbies.
+
+You might get away with just sitting around and letting people resent you, but it's wiser to get active and work alongside them.
+Remember to move your workers around to have them do what they like doing or what they do best.
+
+## Your Locker
+
+To deal with your new soul-crushing tasks, every head is given special items to lead your subordinates. Most of your new shiny tools can be found in your [color=#a4885c]locker[/color].
+ <Box>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="LockerCaptain"/>
+ </Box>
+
+Your [color=#a4885c]remote[/color] is very simple but profoundly underestimated. A small but mighty force, your remote can open and close [color=#a4885c]airlocks[/color], spin the [color=#a4885c]bolts[/color] to lock them, or toggle [color=#a4885c]emergency access[/color]. It can do this from a distance.
+ <Box>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="DoorRemoteCommand"/>
+ </Box>
+The remote influences where people move around. Heads can lock personnel out of dangerous areas or let people in to grab something really quickly.
+
+You also have access to your very own [color=#1b67a5]Command[/color] channel, like every other department. However, yours is particularly special as the people who can hear you have [color=#a4885c]entire departments[/color] at their fingertips.
+Use this to communicate with other heads and be a representative of what your workers want or need.
+
+The [color=#1b67a5]Captain[/color] and the [color=#9fed58]Head of Personnel[/color] get access to the lucrative [color=#a4885c]master encryption key[/color], letting them tune into every radio channel on the station. This is extremly valuable, as you can coordinate between departments yourself.
+[color=#a4885c]Don't waste this vital advantage![/color]
+ <Box>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ClothingHeadsetCommand"/>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="EncryptionKeyStationMaster"/>
+ </Box>
+
+To make the swamp of paperwork (that will definitely overwhelm you) even harder to deal with, you have generously been given a [color=#a4885c]stamp[/color] in your locker. Use this to sign paperwork. After you stamp it, it can't be edited. Look it over first.

The noise made when an admin-help is received. Pray this isn't a ban.
-## Upstream
-The baseline version of the game. Any changes to Upstream will "flow" down to all other forks of the game. All official Wizard's Den servers work off of Upstream.
+## Ick Ock
+A phrase usually shouted in OOC when somebody reveals IC current round information, or "in-character, out-of-character".
+## LOOC/OOC
+Local out-of-character and (global) out-of-character respectively. They are text channels that allow players to talk to other players outside of roleplay. LOOC is enabled during rounds, while OOC is typically only on after the round ends.
+
## LRP
Low Roleplay. Servers marked LRP typically have relaxed roleplaying rules.
## HRP
High Roleplay. Servers marked HRP generally have extensive rules on what is and is not constituted while playing a character. You are generally required to act as your character would, have a character backstory, and follow protocol on the station. Some HRP servers may create their own lore or settings to further facilitate the type of server they wish to host.
-##Self-Antag
+## Self-Antag
A term for a player who engages in antagonist-like activity without actually being an antagonist. This encompasses a wide variety of behavior, but is typically used to describe annoying behavior or actions which are greatly detrimental to other players for no purpose. Self-antagonism is a bannable offense. Sometimes used in IC. DO NOT DO THIS.
-## Validhunting
+## Upstream
+The baseline version of the game. Any changes to Upstream will "flow" down to all other forks of the game. All official Wizard's Den servers work off of Upstream.
+
+## Validhunter
A player who hunts down "valids", as in people that are valid to kill, even though this person isn't security.

# Jobs
SS14 has a large number of jobs, divided into seven major departments:
## Service
-This department includes the janitor, passengers, clown, mime, musician, chef, bartender, the head of personnel, and other jobs who exist to serve the station.
+[color=#9fed58]Service[/color] is a diverse department that includes the head of personnel and other jobs who exist to serve the station.
It primarily functions as folks who entertain, clean, and serve the rest of the crew, with the exception of passengers who have no particular job beyond getting lost in maintenance.
## Cargo
-Cargo consists of the cargo technicians, salvage specialists, and the quartermaster. As a department, it responsible resource distribution and trade, capable of buying and selling things on the galactic market.
+[color=#b18644]Cargo[/color] consists of the cargo technicians, salvage specialists, and the quartermaster. As a department, it responsible resource distribution and trade, capable of buying and selling things on the galactic market.
For the most part, this means they scrounge around the station and assorted wrecks to find materials to sell and redistribute, and purchase materials other departments request.
## Security
-Security consists of the security cadets, lawyers, detective, security officers, warden, and the head of security. As a department it is responsible for dealing with troublemakers and non-humanoid threats like giant rats and carp.

As a result of this, and the need to walk a fine line, security sometimes is overwhelmed by angry crew (don't kill the clown), and it is important for its members to try and stay on their best behavior.
## Medical
-Medical consists of the medical interns, chemists, medical doctors, and the chief medical officer. As a department it is responsible for taking care of the crew, treat and/or clone the wounded and dead, treat disease, and prevent everyone from dying a horrible, bloody death in a closet somewhere.

As a department it is responsible for taking care of the crew, treat and/or clone the wounded and dead, treat disease, and prevent everyone from dying a horrible, bloody death in a closet somewhere.
Medical is one of the more well-equipped departments, with the ability to locate injured crew using the crew monitor, a nigh infinite supply of chems should chemistry be on-par, and the ability to rapidly diagnose and vaccinate contagious diseases.
## Science
-Science consists of research assistants, scientists, and the research director. As a department it is responsible for researching technologies and artifacts, upgrading machines, and printing new and useful devices.

Engineering is readily equipped to go safely into space, and as such they should always attempt to repair uninhabitable parts of the station.
## Command
-Command consists of the captain, the head of personnel, the head of security, the chief engineer, the chief medical officer, the research director, and the quartermaster. As a department it is responsible for keeping the station and its departments running efficiently.
+[color=#1b67a5]Command[/color] consists of every department head. It is responsible for keeping the station and its departments running efficiently.
Command members should always be relatively competent in their respective departments and attempt to delegate responsibility and direct work.
+# Getting Your Job Changed
+The [color=#9fed58]Head of Personnel[/color] is the person in charge of changing ID accesses and handing out encryption keys. Head over to their office and let them know what job you'd like to work instead.
+
+Often, they'll want you to go get a paper [color=#a4885c]stamped[/color] by a department head. Don't sweat it, just find them and hand them the paper.

## The Basics
There are two ways to tell what's ailing someone: Taking a scan (with a health analyzer or a medical PDA), or examining them, with a shift-click, and clicking the heart symbol.
-It's best to do both, if possible, as some things (such as poison, or radiation) don't show up on examination, while others (such as blood levels) don't show up on an analyzer.
+Using a health analyzer is often more powerful than examination, as some things (such as poison, or radiation) don't show up on examination. However, using an analyzer has its drawbacks, as it makes noise and uses up a battery.

+Before we go any further, it's probably a good idea to go over damage types, and what will heal them. The wiki has more extensive info available, but these are commonly used.
An important note: Most medication has an overdose level, which will cause harm to your patient. Chemicals also take time to metabolise in pill form, if you want things to act quickly, use a syringe.

-You can't save them all, sometimes, death happens. Depending on the status of the body, if there's a soul present, and if the body has started rotting, there are a few things that can be done.

+You can't save them all, sometimes, death happens. Depending on the [color=#a4885c]status[/color] of the body, there are a few things that can be done.
-1. Do they have a soul attached? You can tell if, when examining, the following phrase is displayed: "Their soul has departed." If this isn't displayed, consider storing the body in a morgue tray, or using them for biomass.
+1. Do they have a soul attached? You can tell if, when examining, the following phrase is displayed: "Their soul has departed." If this isn't displayed, there is still a player who can be revived.
2. Is the body rotting? If it is, sadly, they'll have to be cloned. A rotting body can't be brought back with a defibrillator. (See Cloning)
-3. If they have a soul, and aren't rotten, it's possible to revive them. Not counting airloss, Defibrillator's can be used to revive patients under 200 total damage. Chemicals don't metabolise in the dead, but brute packs and ointment can still patch them up. Use them to bring their numbers down enough for revival.

+# Important Character Creation Tips
+This is a guide for the parts of character creation that effect gameplay.
+
+[textlink="For a guide on making cosmetic changes, click here." link="YourFirstCharacter"]
+
+## Spawn Priority
+This affects where you spawn in upon joining the game after the round has already started.
+
+Choosing "Arrivals" will spawn you on a separate station where you wait for a shuttle to arrive to ship you to the main station.
+
+Choosing "Cryosleep" will have you wake up in a cryosleep chamber already on the station.
+
+Choosing "None" will either pick for you or choose the only spawn option available for the current station.
+
+This is a mostly arbitrary choice. You can safely leave this on "None" and you won't suffer any real inconveniences.
+
+## Jobs
+You can set your job preferences in the lobby. While these don't [color=#a4885c]guarantee[/color] your position, someone who wants the job will be [color=#a4885c]randomly[/color] selected at the start of the round.
+You are given a chance at being chosen for your high priority job first, then your medium priorities, then your low priorities.
+You also given an option to automatically be a passenger or to be sent back to the lobby if you don't get chosen for any of your preferred jobs.
+
+Some jobs are locked until you've played long enough as other entry level jobs.
+
+[textlink="For more infomation about jobs, click here." link="Jobs"]
+
+## Job Loadouts
+You may also choose [color=#a4885c]loadouts[/color] for each job. Loadouts are the clothing items and trinkets that you spawn with upon joining the game. Some loadout items are locked behind playtime restrictions.
+This may have various effects on gameplay, as some clothing items have [color=#a4885c]armor protection[/color] or [color=#a4885c]slow down your movement speed[/color]. This applies especially to Command and Security.
+
+You may also choose what bag you spawn in with.
+[color=#a4885c]Backpacks[/color] are medium sized but can carry large items easier. [color=#a4885c]Satchels[/color] have more total space than backpacks but have trouble carrying large items. [color=#a4885c]Duffel bags[/color] are large but incur a movement penalty.
+
+## Antags
+Turning on an [color=#a4885c]antagonist[/color] toggle will put you on the list of potentional antags at the start of the round. They do not guarantee your antagonist role, don't use this as an excuse to self-antag!
+Instead, like job priorities, a handful of players are chosen randomly from eligible players. If you are a command member or security officer, you cannot be chosen for an antag role.
+
+[textlink="For more information about antagonists, click here." link="Antagonists"]
+
+Joining multiple games or ghosting/disconnecting/commiting suicide upon not being chosen for an antag role is referred to as "antag-rolling" and it is against the rules.
+Plenty of people patiently wait for their turn to be antagonists, so [color=#a4885c]we kindly ask you to refrain from opting-in to an antagonist role if you aren't ready[/color].
+
+## Traits
+Speech traits alter your speech, sometimes to an extreme degree.
+
+They include:
+- Accentless (disables the accent of your selected species)
+- Cowboy accent (word replacement, partner)
+- Frontal lisp ("s" is replaced with "th")
+- Italian accent (Mamma-mia, word replacement)
+- Pathological liar (word replacement, changes words like "yes" to "no")
+- Pirate accent (Arrgh, word replacement)
+- Social anxiety (s-s-stutter)
+- Southern Drawl (replaces "-ing" with "-in'" and similar changes)
+
+You should be comfortable with talking normally or with a minor accent such as Social anxiety or Southern drawl before taking heavy accents like Italian or Cowboy.
+
+There are also disabilty traits. Familiarize yourself with the game and the game's flow before taking one of these, as some may become difficult for beginners to deal with.
+
+They include:
+- Blindness (severely limits your vision)
+- Lightweight drunk (you get drunk faster and you suffer more from the ill-effects of alcohol)
+- Muted (you cannot talk or whisper, but you can still communicate via emotes and pen and paper)
+- Narcolepsy (you randomly fall asleep at unpredictable and often inconvenient times)
+- Pacifist (you cannot hit, shoot, or throw sharp objects at people)
+- Paracusia (you sometimes hear noises that aren't real)
+- Short-sighted (somewhat limits your vision without prescription glasses)
+- Snoring (you make loud snoring sounds when asleep)
+- Unrevivable (you cannot be resusitated when you meet your untimely demise)

+# Speech and Text Channels
+Talking is a key part of Space Station 14. You can press [keybind="FocusChatInputWindow"/] to jump to the text box.
+
+The word next to the text box is the [color=#a4885c]text channel[/color] you're about to send the message to, or rather how you're about to say what you've typed.
+
+Local is normal speech at normal volume.
+
+Whisper can only be heard when nearby somebody. You automatically whisper into your radio to send messages over it.
+
+Emotes are gestures that you make. Can be recieved by anyone who is not blinded. You will often see mimes do many emotes.
+
+Whisper messages can be sent by starting your message with [color=#a4885c][keybind="FocusWhisperChatWindow"/][/color] and Emotes can be sent by starting your message with ([color=#a4885c]@[/color]).
+You can also cycle through all of these text channels by pressing [keybind="CycleChatChannelForward"/].
+
+People may not be able to make out all of what you're saying if you're standing too far away from them. This is especially important if you're whispering.
+
+## Radio
+
+Your radio allows you to communicate across the entire station and to your specific [color=#a4885c]department[/color].
+
+<Box>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ClothingHeadsetGrey"/>
+</Box>
+
+To send a [color=#a4885c]station-wide[/color] message over the radio preface, use the [color=#32cd32]Common[/color] channel by beginning your text with [color=#32cd32]semi-colon (;)[/color].
+People standing right next to you might catch bits of your radio message, even if they don't have the access to the relevant radio channel. Watch for eavesdroppers.
+
+## Departmental Radio
+
+You are able to send messages over your departmental radio channels using [color=#32cd32]colon (:)[/color] followed by the department letter as long as you're wearing a headset with your department's encryption key.
+
+Examine your headset to see the department channels available to you.
+
+<Box>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="ClothingHeadsetEngineering"/>
+</Box>
+
+Examining an unmodified engineering headset would show you the prefixes for the [color=#32cd32]Common[/color] and [color=#f37746]Engineering[/color] channels.
+
+It is also possible to use [color=#a4885c]:h[/color]. This hotkey will automatically default to your department radio channel.
+For example, if you're a Station Engineer then [color=#a4885c]:h[/color] will default to [color=#f37746]:e[/color].
+
+## Encryption Keys
+[color=#a4885c]Encryption keys[/color] give you access to their respective channel.
+
+Examining our engineering headset from earlier shows us [color=#32cd32]Common[/color] and [color=#f37746]Engineering[/color] because an engineer's headset starts with those [color=#a4885c]encryption keys[/color].
+
+<Box>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="EncryptionKeyCommon"/>
+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="EncryptionKeyEngineering"/>
+</Box>
+
+You can take out encryption keys by using a [color=#a4885c]screwdriver[/color] on a headset. New encryption keys are put into headsets by clicking on one with an encryption key in your hand.
+
+All command members have extras of their relevant encryption key, but you can also request one at the HoP's office when you're getting your job changed.
+
+## OOC Channels
+OOC (out-of-character) channels exist outside of the game world. They are LOOC, OOC and Dead chat.
+
+LOOC is on during the rounds, OOC is typically off until the round ends and you can only see and talk in Dead chat when you are, well, dead.
+
+Do not discuss the current round in the Discord or in OOC if it's on during the round.

+# Welcome!
+
+Welcome to the alpha build of Space Station 14!
+You have just started your shift aboard a Nanotrasen space station. You and your crewmates should cooperate, perform your jobs the best you can and have fun.
+
+We hope you enjoy the game, and this entry will serve to guide you on how to learn to play.
+
+There's quite a bit to read, but SS14 is in itself a very large and in-depth game, and hopefully these guides help you enjoy it to its fullest.
+
+This entry and its subentries contain simple and broad information new players need to play the game on most servers.
+
+Some information given here may be repeated or further touched upon in the Station and Shifts entry, [textlink="which can be found here." link="SS14"]
+
+## How to use this guidebook
+This guidebook contains [color=#a4885c]step-by-step instructions[/color] on how to perform tasks, [color=#a4885c]tables of components[/color] one might require,
+or simply [color=#a4885c]tips, tricks and guidelines[/color] on how to perform your job.
+
+You can refresh yourself on your job before starting your shift or reference certain pages as needed, [textlink="such as recipes for cocktails" link="Drinks"].
+
+## Wait, what's Space Station 14?
+Space Station 14 is a free (forever) open source remake of the infamous Space Station 13, hoping to provide an improved experience for both newcomers and old players alike. Space Station 14 is designed as a fully moddable experience that you can modify to your liking with custom servers, adding entire swaths of new content for people to explore.
+
+Please make sure you understand the server rules (F1) and if you have any questions, consult this guide, your colleagues on shift in person or over radio or via discord. You can also ask admins for help (ahelp) by hitting the escape key > admin help and typing a message to any online admins. Especially do this if you witness someone breaking rules.
+
+[color=#a4885c]To reiterate, you are all a crew of people who work together[/color] and you should not be harming each other unless you have an extremely good reason (such as self-defence) and even then, you should call security over radio.

+# The Captains and the Clowns
+This is a guide for editing your character's appearance. Make sure you read Character Creation first.
+Upon creating your character, you may be intimidated by your vast range of options.
+
+It's okay to make your first character [color=#a4885c]randomized[/color] and roll with it, even experienced players do it.
+Making your first character doesn't have to be precise, either. You can [color=#a4885c]wing it[/color] and see what happens.
+
+If you'd like to be [color=#a4885c]methodical[/color], though, creating a character is easy to do one step at a time.
+
+## Choosing a Species
+Most species have minor differences, which you can read about under the [color=#a4885c]Species[/color] entry.
+However, you may find that it's easier to make your first character as a human, moth, dwarf or reptilian.
+
+This shouldn't discourage you from getting creative with your character, though.
+
+This guide will assume you are creating a human, but the process is similar across all species.
+
+## Minor Characteristics
+These include:
+- Age (18-29 for young, 30-59 for middle-aged, 60+ for old)
+- Sex (your sprite, as seen by toggling "Show clothing")
+- Pronouns (what the game will refer to you as)
+- Skin color (may be a slider or RGB depending on species)
+- Eye color (RGB)
+- Hair color (RGB)
+
+These are minor changes and have little effect on gameplay. This is what players will read when they [color=#a4885c]examine you[/color]. ("young man")
+
+## Hair and Facial Hair
+Again, you may be intimidated by the vast range of options. That's okay.
+
+[color=#a4885c]Take your time with it.[/color] You can skim or click through each of the options and find which one you like.
+Sometimes it's easier to set your desired hair color before looking at the options.
+
+If you really can't decide, some popular haircut options include Floorlength Bedhead, Modern, Buisness, CIA or simply bald.
+Alternatively, [color=#a4885c]randomize[/color] a separate character and see what kind of haircuts they're rocking with. Suprise yourself.
+
+Don't feel obligated to use any of these, though.
+
+## Markings
+Markings range from [color=#a4885c]scars and snouts[/color] to [color=#a4885c]tattoos and tails[/color].
+Think of them like [color=#a4885c]accessories[/color] that are a part of your body, for giving your character some extra flair and uniqueness. They cannot be changed during the round.
+
+Some species have more marking options than others. Humans are more limited in terms of markings than moths or reptilians.
+
+You can have a set number of markings in each '[color=#a4885c]category[/color]', as seen at the top. For example, reptilians can have one chest marking but two markings on the top of their heads.
+These are [color=#a4885c]cosmetic[/color] and have no effect on gameplay.
+
+## How to stand out
+Memorable characters are usually remembered for their personality, their deeds and their [color=#a4885c]robustness[/color], but that doesn't mean you have to be some sort of hotshot.
+
+Don't sweat having a big, flashy and memorable character. Make your own story that you'll be remembered for.

# Survival
It is generally wise to avoid situations that will cause you harm, because medical can only heal you so much with limited chemicals and medical items and especially when there's nuclear operatives on your doorstep.
+
## Identifying your situation
Your PDA contains both a vessel name and list of crew currently active in your vessel, a reminder for your name if needed, and your assigned job for the shift, allowing you to quickly assess the situation.
+
## Emergency Treatment
In the event of a serious emergency, there're a few things you can do to help ensure your long-term survival, including:
- If entering critical condition, use the emergency medipen from your emergency box, it'll make sure you don't end up unable to do anything. Emergency medipens can also be used to revive people currently in crit on the floor, and to prolong the amount of time you have to deal with poisons/etc.
+

+ <GuideEntityEmbed Entity="EmergencyMedipen"/>
+</Box>
+
- Your emergency box contains a breath mask and oxygen tank, which can help you survive longer in a spacing situation. If you're one of the slimepeople, be aware that nitrogen replaces oxygen for you and that your emergency box will start with a red tank of nitrogen replacing the standard blue/yellow oxygen tank.

+
- If actively bleeding out, or simply wishing to prepare, it's possible to slice up cloth items with a knife or other sharp object and use the resulting cloth to create gauze in the crafting menu to stem bleeding with, however cloth alone can be used to less of a degree in emergencys.

+## Other Various Tips
- In lieu of an actual health analyzer, simply examining yourself and using the detailed examine is a good way to figure out what wounds you have.
- If going blind, carrots are another way to treat the issue (as they contain Oculine, the chemistry drug used to treat blindness) should they be available.
- Well-made meals (cooked food not from a vending machine) is generally much better for your overall health and can help heal smaller wounds more quickly.
