Researcher

Researcher
Welcome to the frontlines of R&D, you are the foot-soldiers of progress and achievement! While you might not have the proper authorizations to yet fully run your own tests on the more 'exotic' SCPs, there's still plenty to do in the name of the foundation and its goals.

Junior Researcher
Hello new Researcher! You must have many questions but there is no time to explain, really. Seriously there is no time to explain, you better get to work to get a lick of research in while you can. Just follow that other Researcher and get a sense of where to go and what to do.

The New Nerd
You are a Research Associate, someone who is newly inducted into the Foundations Research Division. Your goal is simple, the study of the SCPs which the Foundation has a plethora of and carrying out of specific containment measures. Luckily as an Associate, you start off small. Your main job is to watch the other Researchers do their job and ask questions until you are comfortable enough to start handling this work on your own. There are a few titles which are specialties you can take, and will for the most part be left alone as you focus on it.


 * Assistant Researcher - The standard title for new Researchers, your role is to assist with any testing occurring with SCPs as best as you can. This may be menial tasks but your efforts will pay off as you learn.
 * Junior Xenobiologist - As a Junior Slime Rancher, you assist the experienced Xenobiologists in breeding and harvesting slimes. Slime research has fascinated the Foundation, and so they deemed it appropriate to have some staff work with the strange creatures. Be sure to watch the Xenobiologist and his advice on slime ranching, however Xenobiology is easy enough to where you can safely do this on your own.
 * Junior Xenoarcheologist - As a junior member of Xenoarcheology, your duty is to assist the experienced Xenoarcheologists in collecting artifacts from the mines.
 * Junior Robotics Technician - A new Mechanist, your goal is to ensure all robots and positronics are up to date and functional as well as assist in manufacturing mechs.
 * Research Intern - Nothing much to say. You must be here as part of a program.

Associate RP
As a Research Associate you will need to be adamant in assisting, to avoid being pushed to the sidelines. Dont be a nuisance however but let the other Researchers know you still exist. Some things you can attempt to ask and assist with are the following:


 * Procurement of items required for testing
 * Procurement of permissions and personnel
 * Take notes, write and record everything happening for the Researcher to include in their testing log
 * Keep an eye for breaches or shifts in behavior. You might catch something the Researchers may be busy forgetting

Another important thing to do while the Researchers are setting up is to interact with the other personnel. Perhaps there is a D-Class nearby waiting to be used. You could interview him and inform him of the test by reviewing the log the Researcher hopefully gave you a copy of. After the test you could perform a short examination and interview of the D-Class, or talk to the Guards about what they seen. It is up to you as well to provide an engaging experience.

Limitations
Of course being a Research Associate is not all fun and games. You are not allowed to research on your own as of yet, and your lack of authority wont get you far. Do not test on restricted SCPs or steal SCPs that are in the form of small items.
