A Campfire at the End of Time
I haven't thought of a legit explanation yet, and I'm not a doctor so....

Well, what would you guys like it to be? More serious? Or more light-hearted? I was thinking light-hearted, but I dunnoBardiel said:What are you looking for in the roleplay? Is it meant to be mostly serious or light hearted? What would bring the characters together?
If we take a more serious/realistic theme and tone, then the children could meet a waiting room prior their regular appointments with a psychologist for their DID or other condition. Perhaps recognising each other the bus or train. If it is more light hearted, then the range possibilities becomes more varied, like in my early suggestions (not just medical reasons, but science fiction as well).

That sounds like a good idea, but extremely complicated.Bardiel said:Simple roll would suffice. To make it more interesting, have the players choose to balance their level of control or influence against the duration that can do so. In other words, Control Versus Duration. Each persona has 10 points. Players can put this into either Control (odds of gaining influence) or Duration (how long they can maintain the Control).
Example:
Persona John has Control 7 and Duration 3. The Player makes a single 1-10 roll. If they get under 7, they get Control, but only for 3 turns (which could be half an hour or 3 hours).
Persona Claire has Control 3 and Duration 7. If they get a Roll result equal to or under 3, they get Control, but have Duration 7 and so that could either 70 minutes or seven hours.
Persona John will gain Control more commonly, but have less time to complete their objectives or desires. Persona Claire will have Control less frequently, but much longer in which fulfill their ambition.
If their is a tie, then you could used either the lowest value on the Control Roll or whoever has the highest Control Stat could go first, until their Duration runs out. (Of course storyteller fiat is an option as well.)
That makes sense.iShyShy said:I guess it could work but it seems like it'd take a lot of work to get people ready to post. The concept makes sense though. I also think that if a certain personality take over is wanted in a situation, we should be able to suggest on it. So maybe it's the end of Personality 1's posting time slot and Personality 1 thinks that a good follow up would be Personality 4 so he/she tags the person running Personality 4 as a suggestion. Does that make sense?
