Factions

Factions are a minor Game Mechanic, presenting two factions fighting over the Blackout District: Rebels and Vultures. Both of these factions are hostile against each other and neutral players. The player is able to affiliate themselves with either factions by getting reputation through performing tasks by Brokers. The reputation gained from these tasks allows you to:
*Gain assistance from your certain faction when fighting enemies.
*Pay the Broker to tamper with the "Powerhouse" and cause a blackout
*Take on more difficult tasks that require more reputation respective of the faction.
== Rebels ==
Rebels are players with a 50+ reputation. They will not be attacked by Rebel NPCs even if they are attacked first, they will simply yell at you to stop attacking them, as you both are on the same team. However Vulture NPCs will be very aggressive towards Rebels, and will start attacking if a Rebel player stands too close to one for over 5 seconds, giving a warning first. They tend to have tasks with better morals, such as providing aid to citizens, repairing relay stations, and rescuing their members. Rebels can do most Rebel tasks depending on their reputation, however they have to get a reputation of 75+ before they're able to do all of them. They can still do all Outlander tasks, and the only Vulture task they can do is Money Collection. You can increase your reputation by doing Rebel tasks, and killing Vulture NPCs (only as a Vulture). Once your reputation goes above 50+, you will offiically become a Rebel, and it will display it under your username.
== Vultures ==
Vultures are players with a 50- reputation. They will not be attacked by Vulture NPCs even if they are attacked first, they will simply yell at you to stop attacking them, as you both are on the same team. However Rebel NPCs will be very aggressive towards Vultures, and will start attacking if a Vulture player stands too close to one for over 5 seconds, giving a warning first. They tend to have tasks with typical criminal activity, such as murder, money laundering, and stealing. Vultures can do most Vulture tasks depending on their reputation, however they have to get a reputation of 75- before they're able to do all of them. They can still do all Outlander tasks, and the only Rebel task they can do is Medical Delivery. You can increase your reputation by doing Vulture tasks, and killing Rebel NPCs (only as a Rebel). Once your reputation goes below 50-, you will offiically become a Vulture, and it will display it under your username.
== Outlanders ==
Outlanders are neutral players that have a reputation above 50-, but a reputation below 50+. They do not belong to either faction, and will be treated with hostility by Rebel and Vulture NPCs. NPCs from both factions will start attacking if an Outlander player stands too close to one for over 5 seconds. Depending on their reputation, they can still do certain Rebel or Vulture tasks. They can do all Outlander tasks regardless of their reputation. Outlanders do not have a title under their usernames.
== Trivia ==
* When doing the Medical Delivery Task as a Vulture, the citizen you're delivering to will begin to insult you, asking if you're playing some kind of sick joke on them. The player subtly threatens the citizen before they reluctantly accept the supplies.
