Civilians

Civilians are the freeform class of Citadel Nine, composed of players who wish to live in the city without the stress of Combat or performance-based Tasks. They have no structured task pool and are, by default, non-targetable by other players, a rule strictly enforced by the system. Constituting roughly 30-35% of the active player base, Civilians are the audience that fills the city's bars, cheers at its arenas, and fuels its social ecosystem.

The Civilian Toggle

While safe by default, Civilians can opt into danger at any time via a toggle in their Beacon interface. This makes them targetable and allows them to participate in incidents. The toggle can only be switched off once they have reached a safe area. Players like ChainedUp have built a reputation on their frequent, and often reluctant, use of this toggle.

A Civilian's rank is tied to their social presence, community engagement, and cultural contribution.
