Wildcards

Wildcards are the most versatile class in Citadel Nine. They cannot initiate Hero or Villain-specific Tasks, but they can join either side during active incidents. They have their own dedicated task pool built around support, logistics, crafting, and intelligence. Wildcards are often the glue that holds public Events, heists, and rescues together.

Wildcard Subtypes

The Beacon routes tasks based on four recognized specializations.

• Supporters: Focus on enabling other players through buffs, debuffs, and tactical coordination. Notable Supporters include Orpheus and Mara.
• Crafters: The economic backbone of District 3, these players build, repair, and modify Gear. Top Crafters include Netmirth, Vanessa, and Wynnter.
• Medics: Specialize in recovery and stabilization, keeping players from desyncing during and after incidents.
• Freelancers: A catch-all for Wildcards who defy specialization, including mercenaries, info-brokers, and scouts. Their unpredictability makes them dangerous and sought-after. Notable Freelancers include null and The Salary Man.

The Beacon evaluates Wildcards primarily on task completion rate, adaptability, and peer reviews from the players they support.
