In the Backwaters, survival is only part of the story. If you want to build a name, earn your place, and unlock more of the world, it starts with work. Jobs are more than background details. They are roleplay anchors, credit generators, and a direct path to boosting your character’s street cred.
Why Work Matters
- Earn Street Cred: Every shift you roleplay earns you credits. These stack toward chapter progression, helping you grow your story and unlock new perks.
- Unlock Roles: Higher chapters open access to exclusive roles, deeper storylines, and more power within the Backwaters world.
- Create Roleplay Opportunities: Jobs bring characters together. From tension between coworkers to unexpected customer drama, your shifts often become full story arcs.

Sheriff Deputy
Being a deputy in the Backwaters is not about justice. It is about control. Deputies serve as the public face of law enforcement, but their true loyalty lies with the Syndicate. Most are on the payroll, enforcing order where it benefits the criminal underworld and looking the other way when it does not. As a deputy, you might cover up crimes, pressure locals for tribute, or handle transfers of Lost characters to Syndicate-backed businesses. Some wear the badge with pride. Others wear it as armor. Either way, this role puts you at the center of corruption, faction tension, and the daily struggle for power in Port Laveau.
