Regarding Alts

[Hailyn]

I'm sure the title is a bit vague, I couldn't think of a way to phrase it in three words or less, but this has more to do with the development of this character.. before it is officially created. Lisette is intended to be a clone of [member="Silara Vantai"], whom will be grown via the Marketplace-purchased service with [member="Arielle K'ntarr"]. I suppose the question I am really looking for an answer to is:

Can I be involved in this thread with both myself(Lisette) and my other character(Silara)?

Why not? There's nothing in the rules that says two of your characters can't interact with one another.

 

[Shinju]

The only time having the two character involved might be talked about is if they are tag teaming a person in PvP or you are using them to get restricted materials. Other then that... go crazy and have fun.

It's a bit of paranoia from a few other communities that I've done role-playing that restricted alt-interaction (usually completely banned it), so I wanted to make sure it wasn't an unspoken rule. Thank you for the quick response, I appreciate it.

Of course. That's why we're here.

The only reason having two characters interact with each other would be looked upon with suspicion and disapproval would be in the case where Character A is in Faction A, Character B is in Faction B, and one is passing secrets to the other.

Other than that, you're free to have your characters interact with one another as little or as much as you like.

I personally do frown upon it. I would much rather players interact with each other than themselves.

However, this motley crew is correct. We're pretty good at knowing when people are being shady and attempting to skirt around rules. Don't be shady and you'll be fine.

If they meet then make it natural and RP it out my other alt [member="Nulgath Zardai"] is my Sith training partner. I had them fight it first time they met now there loosely ok with each other

This is a thread that starts with (assuming [member="Cira"] wants to do it this way, if not it will be with just Silara) the process of the clone being grown, and then Lisette (the clone) being introduced to Silara (whom is purchasing her from the Rythana cloning labs as a daughter-figure clone of herself). It's the basis of this character's existence, and the two characters meeting is inevitable.

 

[Cira]

I'm down for that thread--

Also, with as many chars as I have... Trust me, they've interacted a lot! XD

Most of them started as established NPCs that got a life of their own. Now they are pc's.

I've alts that are friends,family, nemesis, and aliases of others.

 

[Siobhan Kerrigan]

We are ALL alts of @Cira. Some of us just don't know it yet.


Anyhow, what everyone else before me said. Most of my chars have met and interacted at some point. At times murderously so.

 

[Garza]

One thing that also is frowned upon is one alt training another in a rather powerful force skill. You can't teach yourself Force Storm or Darkshear from an alt.

 

[Reverance]

When this question pops up, it's simple to resolve. Ask yourself: "Does this interaction give my characters an unfair advantage, compared to those who don't interact with their alts?" If it doesn't, then don't worry about it. Autogenic (can I use that word here? It sort of makes sense) development is hardly something to be readily dismissed without considering the context.
