Could you give me examples of some reasons?The_Last_Good_Dragon wrote: ↑Sat Aug 25, 2018 1:43 pmI'd be fine with assigning an NPC as a punishment tied to a specific location — like an NPC Reeve standing watch in the precise situations like described above (in fact, there are already NPCs watchful of certain busy IC locations) — but the idea of assigning an NPC to follow someone around during all their RP would be awful, in my opinion, for a great many reasons.
People travel with NPCs all the time; they're often ignored. I like the idea of working a gatekeeper into my RP, but sure, not all the time, nor would every criminal be offered that level of freedom. But if my choices were sitting in a cell by myself, rpyelling through a window, or sitting in a tavern with a guard breathing down my neck, I'd be all over door #3.
