Something that has been pointed out to me by a few players is the need for in-character dialogue. Thusly, this is my solution.

You can talk to people here, in-character, if you want to, or you can talk secretly to them by pm or whatever.

I don't mind if you talk elsewhere to characters that realistically you couldn't (ie, one character being in York, the other in Paris) - that's fine. But here I'd like it if you kept it realistic.

This especially applies to - as of Chapter Three, Eloa and Dierdro Dayo. But other opportunities will occurr, no doubt.

If you need one of the non-player characters, please ask me and I'll do my best to roleplay it up for you.

If the dialogue is good enough, I might work it into the chapters, so...
