I feel derp for not being able to figure it out on my own, but how does the IC Talk section work? Is there some sort of living campaign-esque continuity here that I'm not getting? Or some way to at least figure out what character someone is playing?

To clarify: I get Eclipse Phase and roleplaying in general. I just find this format confusing.

This is mostly improv: we wanted to build a living community that people could play campaigns through. Think of it like WoW, with Second Life as the canvas they are playing on. It met with mixed results.

I think the idea was to build threads for individual locals or mesh communities, and have people choose to play NPCs there. Gamemasters can run their players through scenes, some of which involve visiting the local . The NPC becomes a player briefly, for however long the interaction takes. If the traveling group wants the NPC to be able to interact with their characters meaningfully should tag their characters listing in the In-Character Cast List with a three tropes.
