# Revealed

When Watch or Gang characters use `contest/patrol` too often in the same location, they risk becoming `Revealed`. If the command is used more than three times in a row within the same District will start a chance roll *(`10%` each time the command is used afterward)*. If the reveal roll is successful, your character will be given the `Revealed` role.

If someone has the `Revealed` role, it means their actions are known to the opposing faction. If a Watch member is revealed, the Gangs will become aware of their impact on their control points. Alternatively, if a gang member is revealed, the Watch will become aware of their criminal activity in the district. Characters will be able to interact with `Revealed` characters based on their IC actions. Finally, if someone is `Revealed`, the [`see`](/character/seeing.md) command won't ask for their permission to be spotted in high-population channels.

The only way to remove the `Revealed` role is to switch districts. Once in another district, using `patrol/contest` will remove the role and they will become "anonymous" again.
