Paranoia2

Okay, a few things you DO need to know:

Security Levels

• Security clearance is given based on the colors of the rainbow. They are, from highest to lowest:
  • Ultraviolet (White)
  • Violet
  • Indigo
  • Blue
  • Green
  • Yellow
  • Orange
  • Red
  • Infrared (Black)
• Being in an area that is colored above your clearance, or owning an ITEM that is outside your clearance level (This includes owning an item of that color - a yellow pencil is Yellow clearance!) is a traitorous offense!

Dice Rolls

• In general, the LOWER the number on the D20, the more successful the action is. The HIGHER your stat, the more successful the action is.
• Perversity Points - you start with 25 and you gain extras by amusing the GM or doing things in an awesome/hilarious manner. You can spend Perversity Points to raise or lower your own skill levels for a single die roll, OR raising/lowering the skill level of ANOTHER Troubleshooter to mess with their rolls! Using Perversity Points at the right time and in an entertaining way may earn you more points!

Clones

• Essentially in a Paranoia campaign you have six lives. You have what's called a six-pack of clones - if you die, another clone will be somehow delivered to your locale posthaste.

Your goals

• Serve The Computer!
• Destroy Commie mutant traitors!
• Serve the interests of your Secret Society!
• Complete your mission successfully!
• Survive! Sometimes! Maybe!

Your real goals

• Entertain the GM, fellow players, and spectators!
• Be a ham. ACT IT UP and have fun!
• EXPERIMENT! Do stupid things! Do things you ARE NOT SURE OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN!
• Be a bastard! Screw over your teammates! It's all in good fun; that's how the game is MEANT to be played!
• Again: Try to be entertaining, and HAVE FUN. That is the key to this game. If you have fun, and you are entertaining, you'll do great~!
