A place for Margo and the rest of us to list important positions within the setting that might be best served by NPCs instead of players because of potential for abuse or unreliability:

Re: Important Positions/NPCs
Magistrates
Guards
A few templates or go to guys for both would be divine, especially with the reduced numbers of either in the PC roster. Clearing out the guard roster of those who haven't touched in since the revival or at least putting them in an inactive status is probably necessary. A roll call can be taken at some point, but I think we have Stu, Suz, Jason and Lay right now. I could be wrong, and am missing other guards.

Re: Important Positions/NPCs
Just a thought, but have you considered the possibility of making these playable NPC's that any of you could assume the role of? I was thinking of the way the bots worked (or used to work) whereby someone could play Rantan, Dulcy or Woolly ( ) and thought that maybe communal property important NPC's among the operators might mitigate the need to wait on the one person that went on hiatus to do something for someone ICly.

That was the idea.
Pasted over from something for the op boards (that's actually sitting in notepad):

Was this what you had in mind?GMPC profiles: Not quite NPCs like Dulcina and Paetines, GMPCs will be the plot movers, established characters with well known positions. The Captain of the Guard, magistrates, the local gossip, etc. We need to sit down, brainstorm a list of characters that could be used this way, and then write their dossiers and backgrounds so that any GM could use them with impunity. They will not be actual PCs, they don't get to be the hero, they are there as a foil, a device, and nothing more.

Yeah. Good deal then.
