Event Operators are staff trained to handle the game's tools. They're capable of running approved events single-handedly, as well as helping other event operators with their events when more than one pair of hands is needed. Event Operators answer to Game Masters and receive in-game permissions from them alongside event approval.

Event Running

Formally, events are run by the Game Master that approves the event, with the assistance of the creator of the event. This leaves the role of the Operator primarily in the mechanical running of the event as described in the event plan, and following any other instructions.

In practice, the event team communicates to run the event smoothly and make any necessary adjustments as needed. More often than not, an event will be run by the Operator who created it, and will have extra flexibility in adjusting the event to suit their intentions.

Event Composition

Operators have extra privileges in the production of an event compared to others:

  • They are not restricted to following the Event Checklist step by step, and may submit an event plan for approval without any prior communication.
  • They may fast-track their event's approval process by having relevant development staff pre-approve lore and code elements or changes, allowing the Game Master to simply verify the approval once submitted.
