Outbreak is always looking for fresh ideas and leadership. To run a group, the following requires a proposal to get started:
- private business that your character would run out of an available shop
- official business that needs a new leader
- faction of survivors that have banded to traffic rare goods and services
A few themed buildings and empty shops are available for rent as private businesses. These spaces are reserved for individuals who have ideas on offering new kinds of role-play scenarios and trade opportunities to the Island.
Private Business Benefits
- Private shop space and prim allowance to setup a business in Arklay.
- Access to the Leadership forum and Outbreak Community Leaders group
- 4x cash payout for presence at shop (distribution of cash to employees of private businesses is at the discretion of the founder who collects the boosted payout)
- Access to acquire crates of commodity and supply to Island for profit
- Create and maintain your own “Outbreak” group
Every now and then, an opportunity to lead an official business opens up. These groups are super important and leaders often work directly with Nadir.
Official Business Benefits
