Operator's Pass
Your credential for active participation in Reticle Cold War.

What Is an Operator's Pass?
An Operator's Pass is required for each character you create. It grants access to the full game experience—missions, crafting, marketplace trading, and rewards.
Think of it as your operative's authorization to participate in Echo Collective operations.

One Pass Per Character
Each character requires its own Operator's Pass:
- Pass is tied to a specific character, not your wallet
- Multiple characters means multiple passes
- Passes cannot be transferred between characters
If Your Pass Expires
When a pass expires, your account enters a dormant state:
What's preserved:
- Your reputation and faction standings
- Your inventory and owned assets
- Your progression history and decisions
- Any blockchain-minted items remain in your possession
What's suspended:
- Active gameplay (missions, combat, intelligence ops)
- Marketplace trading
- Crafting capabilities
- Airdrop eligibility
Reactivation: Purchase a new pass to immediately restore full access. All your progress remains exactly as you left it.
Purchase Flow
- Connect wallet — Link your wallet to Legends of Cypher

The pass purchase happens before character creation—you need authorization before you can create an operative.
