NPC Creation Guide and NPC Character Sheet

[Cassiel]

Explanation
Non-Player Characters, or NPCs, are useful tools that help fill out the world and give the RP a since of "realism". Having other individuals to interact with is important, especially in the beginning when there may be only a few players. NPCs are not as developed as PCs (Player Characters), but still do act in a consistent and meaningful manner.

NPCs may be created as the story calls for them, but unless otherwise stated, they may be used by any member of the forum. So if you create a police officer, there may be a point when someone else's character encounters said police officer. They are allowed to write the character's responses and actions. However, they must be written as per the NPC's characterization. And for God's sake, don't misuse or abuse anyone's NPC...that's just stupid and rude.

Certain NPC's will have a special tag on them, saying MO. This means these are for Moderator Only use. Anytime you will be interacting with this NPC, a moderator on duty will write their responses. Usually this will be done in a Joint Post. This is done not because we don't trust you guys, but because we have very specific storylines going for these individuals or they are vital to something later. Now go on and populate Coquille!
