The Primary Tool Storage. This is where you spawn.

Assistants are the most versatile and expendable workers on the ship. They are recommended to new-comers who have read or are reading the tutorial and are still getting their space legs.

Assistants begin their shifts around the ship but usually congregate in Primary Tool Storage, where they can acquire some basic tools such as screwdrivers and wrenches. If you are charismatic or lucky, the Executive Officer can add more access to your Identification Card. With more access and perhaps a custom job title, perhaps you can find a purpose on the ship at last.

Sometimes you are a God among men and sometimes you are dead within twelve seconds of round start. It all depends on how you set up and the luck of the ship.

Bare minimum requirements: Don't be a total shitler.

Ghost in the System

It's easy to stay under the radar as an assistant, as you have the least-respected job on the ship (aside from that other guy). You have maintenance access, but to go anywhere else you need to be creative. Loot a belt and budget insulated gloves from Primary Tool Storage if you can and set out!

The number one advantage of traitor assistant is your opponent's arrogance. Security and other crew members will typically assume you are inexperienced or stupid, so surprise them with your knowledge of the game's mechanics.

This doesn't mean you won't run into a particularly savvy security member who knows the potential danger of an assistant, though. Keep alert at all times. In the rare case that someone actually asks you to assist them, draw them into a quiet place and execute them.
