It's different from normal in that it is mainly about the interactions
between different GM's games, and involves actions over many seasons. I also
expect that the opportunity for an individual PC to interact with a faction
that they have an existing relationship with to be occasional at most (but I
could be wrong).
Having several parties this season and next discuss what relationships have
changed for them (note that 'we thought about it and decided "none" is
useful info) and send the results to Jono should help work out the volume of
changes involved.
Players sitting down and noting the relationships they think they have
currently (and how they got there) is useful (doing this in my head while
driving in this morning raised a couple of points to discuss with Jono).
Ditto for GMs and what they would (or have) given out.
Cheers
Errol

Can I suggest that this is trialed in a couple of games so that we get a
sense of how it is going to work - any bugs can be worked out in the
reflection process after trialing.
I think that is the normal process - isn't it??

Subject: [dq] NPC Factions
Hi all,
I would like to move forward with the idea of NPC Factions for characters
usable in a multi-GM way.
Most people think it is good to have a system where the GM at game time is
quickly and easily able to see a report on a relationship between the
character and a Group of NPCs or notable Individual.
I want to move the idea to a point where it can be tested in a couple of
games - with the aim of getting it ratified and eventually adopted as a
standard system like the EP ranking books.
How do I move this forward at this point?
Regards
Jonathan Bean
