[QUOTE="Chimera, post: 1658745, member: 2002"] I'd have to second what [b]Planesdragon[/b] says, and add a little. 'Remember' or 'Think of' the information that he has given you about these NPCs as being [i]from his character's perspective[/i]. Not necessarily the true feelings, motives or intentions of the NPCs themselves. He might think Sally the Wonder Dog is hopelessly in love with him, that Alalala his sister is fanatically loyal, but maybe, just maybe, they're not. He just thinks they are, he's deluding himself, or perhaps they're only acting that way because they have ulterior motives. I'd also caution against allowing him to create all the NPCs and relationships on his own. All too easy for him to set up his little paradise without any problems or opposition. You should be in there as well, adding those problems and opposition. In his list he never mentions Ullu the Bold who holds power in Uggabugga and hates his guts, or the fact that Ullu is a suitor to his sister Alalala... That sort of thing. [/QUOTE]
