While Nar-Sie is an elder god, they are not the only one. There are other elder gods in the universe, and one in particular holds a fierce grudge against Nar-Sie: Ratvar, the Clockwork Justiciar. Am amalgamation of parts, steam, and cogs, Ratvar seeks nothing more than Nar-Sie's utter annihilation. Unfortunately, his exile to Reebe - a plane of complete nothingness - makes celestial warfare somewhat difficult. To these ends, he has enslaved mortals to do his bidding and ensure the downfall of the Geometer.
Assuming you're one of those slaves, you've come to the right place.
Summary
Assuming you've had experience with Nar-Sie and their cult, you might assume that Ratvar's servants operate in a similar fashion. In this, you would be both correct and incorrect. While both cults rely on forced conversion tactics and ultimately serve their respective gods, the similarities end there. The Ratvarian cult is focused primarily on subtlety, sabotage, and base-building, whereas the Nar-Sian cult is focused on sowing chaos, paranoia, and dissent among the crew's ranks.
In addition, unlike Nar-Sie, Ratvar is capable of converting silicon lifeforms. Cyborgs and AIs are both valid targets for conversion. Converted cyborgs will have yellow eyes, visible immediately unless headlights are on (and even then a close examination reveals them), but AIs have no indication unless carded.
Ratvar's servants have to fulfill his will. Typical goals include:
- Summoning Ratvar
- Ensuring that a certain number of servants escape on the shuttle
- Converting all silicon lifeforms on the station
Luckily, you are not alone in this. As a servant, you have a wide variety of tools at your disposal.
The Clockwork Slab
If you've had experience with the Nar-Sian cult, then you can think of the clockwork slab as Ratvar's equivalent of the arcane tome. However, the slab boasts superior portability and utility than the tome, although it's slightly larger and can't fit in pockets. All initial servants start with a clockwork slab and can create more through scripture (more on that later).
The clockwork slab has four functions:
- Recital, which utilizes scripture
- Records, which displays important information including cultist count and construction value
- Recollection, which displays an in-game documentation and tutorial
- Report, which allows discreet communication between all servants
Clockwork slabs will generate a component every 50 seconds, provided they're being held by a mob or are in a mob's storage. Generating a component also prevents all other slabs held by that mob from generating components; spread slabs out, don't hold multiple.
The slab can also be examined to see all components in the slab plus all components available to the slab via the global cache.
Every servant should have a slab! Slabs are key to the success of Ratvar's agenda.
New Servant Checklist
So the round started, and you're a servant? Good! There's a few things that you should do before you begin purging all those pesky untruths. Any unfamiliar terms are covered later in the page.
- Use your slab's Report function to alert your teammates of your rank, position, etc.
- Develop a base for your operations, preferably with your teammates, and tell the teammates where it is - include a tinkerer's cache, then an ocular warden and some clockwork floors/walls once you can make them
- Start expanding your ranks and working towards your objective; have a backup plan in case you get caught
- Use Function Call and Memory Allocation to arm and defend yourself
- Increase your component generation with clockwork proselytized walls and tinkerer's daemons
- Stay in touch with your teammates and be prepared to help them if things go south
Components, Scripture, and CV
Ratvarian cultists don't sacrifice their own blood to use rituals. Instead, they use something called components. In a literal sense, these are parts of Ratvar's body that have rusted and fallen free during his imprisonment. Despite this, the parts hold power on their own and are utilized by Ratvar's servants to power their rites - what they call scripture. Scripture has multiple tiers; each tier is unlocked as the cult's power grows. For instance, the third tier is unlocked through having at least eight servants, 100 CV worth of structures, and three of a specific structure.
There are five component types:
- Belligerent Eyes, which possess the power to focus on certain things and grant malevolent sentience
- Vanguard Cogwheels, which are almost indestructible and serve in protection
- Guvax Capacitors, which can manipulate the mind
- Replicant Alloys, which are very strong but can be melted and molded by force of will
- Hierophant Ansibles, which can send massive amounts of data in an instant
Except for the first tier, most scripture consumes a certain amount of components of a certain type. These components are drawn directly from the slab, which generates components passively at a slow rate, or from the global component storage accessed by tinkerer's caches. This storage can hold an infinite amount of components, and scripture will prioritize drawing from the storage before the slab's internal capacity is tapped.
You might be wondering, "What's CV and why do we need 100 of it? Will it kill my children?" No, it won't, but it's still important. "CV" is the abbreviation for "Construction Value", which is gained by building Ratvarian structures or turfs. For instance, the tinkerer's cache (an extremely important structure) grants 10 CV. It is also granted by clockwork floors and walls - which are useful in their own right - and is a required threshold to gain more powerful scripture.

Creates a Clockwork Obelisk, which can Hierophant Broadcast or create a Spatial Gateway. It also serves as a target for Spatial Gateways.
Hierophant Broadcast allows the user to send a large message to all Servants, useful for coordinating.
Spatial Gateway functions as the Script, but with a duration of 10 seconds and 5 uses, in addition to being two-way, allowing passage from either side of the Gateway.
Two-way Gateways are both a bonus and a malus; While it can be used to rescue Servants, if someone notices the gate before it closes, they can easily follow or toss dangerous items into it.
Spatial Gateways to a Clockwork Obelisk receive double duration and uses.
It requires 50W of power to Hierophant Broadcast and 2000W of power to create a Spatial Gateway.

Threats to the Enlightened
Although the servants of Ratvar are gifted with great power, they are still threatened by many things on the station. This can range from enemy cultists to things as simple as hard vacuum.
The one thing that Ratvar hates more than people telling him that he has a bad name are the followers of his nemesis, Nar-Sie. Not only are Ratvar's servants incapable of converting them, but they endeavor to do the very thing that Ratvar wants to prevent: Nar-Sie's arrival into the mortal plane. The two cults are enemies of one another, serving rival gods with rival goals. As such, Ratvarian magic will be more effective against Nar-Sian cultists. The opposite is also true; much of Nar-Sie's magic is more effective against Ratvar's servants.
Security and the Chaplain
Nar-Sie's cult is generally absent on the stations that Ratvar's servants are present, but the watchful eye of Security and heretical priests is ever-present. A tactical security raid can demolish the most well-prepared of servant hideouts, and the chaplain's holy weapon weakens the Justiciar's magic; a holy weapon is the only way to truly destroy a clockwork marauder, for instance, and holy water will purge the light of Ratvar from even the most powerful servant's mind, given time.
It should be one of the servants' top priorities to infiltrate Security. The servants can use the Dementia Doctrine scripture to nullify the loyalty implants of anyone adjacent to the invoker, making the victims vulnerable for conversion regardless of their previous rank. As for the chaplain? Well, Ratvar says "Suffer not a heretic to live", so the answer should be self-evident.
Ratvar
Once you've defended the Ark for enough time, Ratvar will come forth.
His destructive power is unmatched, turning the minds of the unenlightened and twisting the very walls to suit his image.
Few things are capable of challenging Ratvar's sheer power.
One of them is Nar-Sie.
If Ratvar and Nar-Sie encounter one another,
