ELITE STAFF
Emergency Response Team	Access: All Qualifications: Not defined Employers: Not defined Supervisors: NanoTrasen CentCom Duties: Make sure the station is secure. Guides: No external guides.

The Emergency Response Team (ERT) is the elite asset protection service of the Nanotrasen corporation, you are a member of ERT Pheonix, the team assigned to oversee research facilities in Tau Ceti, including the NSS Aurora, amongst other stations.

Who am I?

A good question, you are a trooper of the ERT, a highly trained operative ready to work with his (or her) team in order to return the station to survivable conditions.

Upon spawning you will be given a number of choices. So lets talk you through them: Name- The first pop-up you will get is to enter your name, don't forget your rank though! For your first time it is advised you label yourself as a Trooper (Tpr. [name]), as you become more experienced you may well get a chance to be a squad leader, known as a Leading Trooper (L/Tpr. [name]) Facial Hair Colour - Hair Colour Eye Colour Skin Tone Hair Style Facial Hair Style Gender

Remember when you spawn in, to change out of your duty uniforms into your combat uniforms, unless otherwise ordered by the team leader.

Who else is in my team?

Alongside you will be other troopers, generally 2 or 3, but depending on the situation we can have multiple teams working together. In addition to troopers, there will be the team leaders, in exceptional circumstances NT may see fit to deploy a Sub Officer to lead the larger teams, or a ERT Commander.

You can identify who is who by the colour of their jumpsuit or body armour, or their specialty by the colour of their hardsuits. Trooper - Your uniform and body armour is marked with green highlights. Leading Trooper - Your team leader will be wearing a light blue highlighted uniform and body armour. Sub Officer - Commanding officers will have red highlighted uniform and armour. Commander - ERT Commanders will have old highlighted uniform and armour.

What do I do?

As a member of the team you have a choice of three specializations:

Security - Drawn from the Fleet Security Force generally, the security specialists wear red hardsuits and well versed in weapon handling drills, hand to hand combat, arresting procedures as well as other skills such as basic first aid.

Engineering - The engineer specialists don orange hardsuits and are well trained in construction and deconstruction and are able to repair the vast majority of faults on a station, or get you into just about any room.

Medical - Medical specialists will be seen with white hardsuits, they are trained in advanced emergency first aid and are essentially field doctors, capable of stabilizing and treating patients and supporting station medical staff.
