Color-coded display with four levels of merit: green low level 1, blue mid level 2, orange high risk 3, and yellow special mission 5, with symbols and numbers indicating the severity or importance.

..//HOW TO RANK UP..

Merit tracks who's actually here. Every mission you complete logs it under your codename. The work matters.. all of it.

Extraction Missions — the marquee. Multi-hour puzzles, the hardest we run. Multiple finishers earn charms.

Scout Missions — the entry point. Two or three steps. First operator to finish takes the charm.

Cell Work — Cell Work is the infrastructure. Showing up at town halls, volunteering at animal shelters, mentoring new operators, keeping the network alive between drops. Any time you spend supporting your community counts, submit it through /volunteer. Cell Ops support? We'll notice.
