1. NPCs are not allowed to be killed or injured severely
2. Any violence/flirting major actions have to be checked with staff first
3. Main NPCs as listed are used as main plot devices and to continue storyline progression as such use is permitted by members but they are more intrinsic to future events and the lesser NPCs can be used to a greater extent.
4. If NPCs are used to a large extent in a thread or RP, staff can be used to RP the character’s responses to help the flow of RPing.
5. Any major events that happen to an NPC should be cleared by staff first.
While this is a basic outline of the use of NPCs and it may seem restrictive, this is simply down to the fact that we want NPCs to be used in advancing storylines and any major events are usually agreed by staff to help storyline progression. As such, NPCs are used as a vehicle to do so. Main NPCs are limited because they act as a lynchpin towards the advancement of the storyline and being killed off in errant RPs means that this inhibits it from being done. However, all non-Main NPCs can be interacted with and used in RPs with staff RPing their responses as agreed upon with the member who wishes to use them for a certain reason be it for the development of their own character or the NPC being used. Also we firmly encourage members to offer suggestions as to events that could happen in the continuing storyline as well as suggestions on how to evolve the NPCs we have listed. Also any ideas you have for characters to be added to the list is welcome.
