So I love this system so far, but i do have a few question about NPCs and how they will work in and out of plots (If this is planned to be elaborated on in a future update you can stop me here).
First of all, for the main three factions (I'm going to use the Jedi as an example, but I see it being important in every big NPC run faction), will we have some sort of canonical list of NPCs in important positions? Like, will we be getting a run down on the current council members, the grand master, and perhaps a couple of normal masters in important positions, which we can use as NPCs? For anyone who wants to play the political game, especially early on when not many players are in important leadership positions, this information is going to be integral.
Second of all, I wanted to know if we were able to use such NPCs outside of plots, and if so how much? So, if you were to do just some random thread in the Jedi temple (if there is a Jedi temple next TL), could you use one of these NPC’s in that thread? Could you run an entire conversation between them and your character? Or just a passing mention such as “As Mehmeh passed Master Blahblah in the hall the man gave the young knight a long glare, as if daring me to step out of line”?
There will be profiles written up and released for the NPCs (like Council members, etc.) when the new TL rolls out. As for how they can fit into RPs, the high level NPCs (Council members and whatnot) will primarily be restricted to plots and won't appear commonly in people's RPs.
