Known criteria for the warden position is accepting a deal with the Admiral and having the assumed capacity to redeem an inmate. Employment seems solely based on capacity for redemption and not moral character, especially since so many varying concepts of morality are available.

Known criteria for inmate status is causing destruction or psychological harm through negligence, disregard, or purposeful effort. Wardens may also possess these traits and are occasionally demoted for excessive behavior.

Thanks.

So it's function vs anything else, on the warden side.

A warden has to be able to protect, serve as representation, provide therapy, distribute responsibilities and allowances, dispense appropriate punishment, protect other inmates and wardens from their inmate, and their ability to achieve their deal is completely reliant on their capacity to redeem an inmate.

It's very complicated civil service.

[ that forever ] it's all good

[metallonkardia]

Seems like it.

[ Arbitrary morality makes a bit more sense. Still, goddamn Terminators. ]

Does it work?

[ that forever ]

[most_feared]

Yes it did. I got my deal and my inmate was free to return to his family.

[metallonkardia]

Do you know if there are restrictions on deals?

[most_feared]

There might be. I've not heard of them, but I'm not risking the specifics being bent. I'm asking for components for planetary protection for someone as it gives him more versatility if circumstances change or I forget to cross a "t" or dot an "i".

[metallonkardia]

Interesting.

I take it you've been here a while.

[most_feared]

Just a year. There are some that have been here longer. [But Kay hoards information like he's about to lose Alexandria.]

[metallonkardia]

I noticed.

K, right?

[ Information hoarding is a fun family activity! ]

[most_feared]

That would be correct.

[It's one of his favorites!]

[metallonkardia]

Pleasure to meet you, etc.

[most_feared]

What sparked the question?

[metallonkardia]

Familiarity.

Private;

Are you familiar with the machine called the T-X?

[Private]

[most_feared]

Yes. She k̷͠ì͘ll͞҉e̛d ͟͞m̀̕͡y̕ i̴̴nm̕͟a҉t̶e̕͏͢

fuck.

[He switches to voice.] The network is giving me trouble. She killed my inmate a while back. Without provocation. She gave me a video of it when I requested it. He was pretty damned pissed after the death toll.

I asked for some help from the technical experts, but one of 'em's split since then.

[ John goes ahead with voice as well, since the damn thing's acting up. ]

Jesus.

It's a Terminator. From my world. Specifically created in a post-global nuclear strike clean up effort to finish off the eradication of the human race.
