Deputy

Players can sign up to become a deputy at any Sheriff's Office in major safe towns by interacting with the NPC Sheriff.

Deputies are able to collect bounties for "wanted" outlaws, cannot kill "civilians" (players who are not "wanted"), and will lose all their items if they are killed. When you interact with the Sheriff, a screen will pop up to let you know the gamerules for becoming a deputy. Interacting with the sheriff again at any time (and selecting the "sure" option) will cancel your deputy status.

As a Deputy you will have a gold star in the top left corner of the screen, reminding you that you are in the Deputy mode. You can also interact with the wanted board to locate any "wanted" outlaws in the area.
