NPC Characters
Our in-play characters do not exist within a vacuum. The lands of Aeipathy are vast and include large populations of "NPC"s (Non-Playable Characters) including: unclaimed canons/wanteds, canon NPCs and original NPCs. NPCs can be used in any and all posts as a way of heightening immersion and consistency in our fictional world. Unclaimed Canons / Wanteds All canons and wanted characters remain a part of our world and lore even if they are not actively "in-play" and written by a member. Whilst they are not controlled by a writer, they are considered NPCs and can be used by other members.
Restriction #1Members are encouraged to use unclaimed canons and wanted characters as little as possible. In certain circumstances, where their absence would be hard to explain, we permit the use of these characters as NPCs. However, every use of an unclaimed canon / wanted is history that a member must work around when creating that character in the future. We therefore ask that unclaimed canons and wanted character are used as NPCs in essential moments only. If you are unsure what qualifies as an "essential moment" or would like help working around an unclaimed character's absence, please contact the staff team.
Restriction #2Whilst unclaimed canons and wanted characters are open to all players when necessary, we highly recommend that members follow the lead of those who play any family members of the NPCs. These are the members who will know the character best and have to work most closely with any additions to their story.
Restriction #3All uses of unclaimed canons and wanted characters must follow all information listed in their character card in our Compendium.
Restriction #4When the need for an unclaimed canon or wanted character is too great for a mere NPC mention or a character has been dropped mid-story/thread, we have a Ghost-writing feature to help members keep their stories moving forward. Please inform a staff member if you intend to use this feature.
Canon NPCs On very rare occasions, a canon character will be created as part of our lore with no intention of them ever becoming a played character. For example: they might be the child of a canon character who is too young to be actively written. These characters are permanent canon NPCs.
Restriction #1Like when using unclaimed canons, the use of Canon NPCs must not contradict any information given in their character card.
Original NPCs Side characters, randomly created for the purposes of a single post or small plotline with in-play characters are Original NPCs. These are widely used by all members in many posts and have very few restrictions.
Restriction #1We encourage anyone who is creating an Original NPC to be aware of the common lore of their land (so that the NPC reads as native to their world). Otherwise there are no restrictions on the creation or use of Original NPCs.
The Roster
If you're looking for an extra hint of immersion, members can submit their Original NPCs to the list below. That way, other members can pick up and use NPCs that have already been mentioned in the Aeipathy world, building on our consistency and realism. It is not a requirement to submit your NPC creations, nor do you have to use the characters below. This is a non-essential resource that's here just for fun.
