Lavaland and the depths of space possess a wide array of ghost playable roles, ranging from some simple farmers to trained soldiers. All roles have unique objectives, characteristics and ultimately unique goals, they all have different ways they are expected to tackle dealing with the inhabitants of lavaland and the station.
Friendly Roles
These roles are typically expected to be either friendly towards Miners and other non-monster entities, outside of self defence.
Job | Role |
---|---|
Seed Vault Dwellers |
Be created to spread virtue and peace. Waste your time growing dope and revolvers. Shoot yourself with the Revolvers when they don't work on the Goliaths. Honestly you're just a botanist who does not have to worry about assistants rushing you. |
Free Golem |
Yeah, do whatever. |
Animal Hospital |
Essentially spawn as a Medical Doctor in hell. Get lucky and heal a weary miner, or get unlucky and get killed by a Legion. |
Beach Bum |

Generally indifferent to everyone else.
