Darkwind Marshal
A Darkwind Marshal, or just Marshal is a player who serves as an ambassador of the game. Marshals are not game masters, or system admins, they are just players who volunteer their time to help new players learn the game.
They do, however, have some small, moderator-type responsibilities when they are in the Game Lobby. For the most part, these involve trying to keep the conversations civil, limiting the amount of swearing and offensive language, and limiting any 'chat spam' that crops up.
Powers and Perks
In support of their Lobby Moderator duties, Marshals can:
- Mute players for various amounts of time
- Kick players out of the Lobby
In support of their Game Ambassador duties, Marshals:
- Have unlimited timeouts during events (regular players are limited to 3)
- Receive 5 extra gang members that are tied to Somerset
- These members allow the Marshal to use his 'real' gang to play as he sees fit, and still have characters available to help new players in the Somerset region
