 Players are welcome to use messages to roleplay interactions between their characters, which is representative of storyboards The Writers made for fun or to work through ideas that never made it onto The Show, potentially because they were too long form to be animated.

-Any roleplay that happens outside of Session is inherently touching on the [[style_and_tone|Artifice]] themes of the game.

 Players will be able to use Discord threads on a specific channel to discuss the relationships between their characters, roleplay draft storyboards that didn't make it to production but nonetheless may influence how the Writers think about characters relationships, invent new backstory and plan their next Uptime together. Players will be able to use Discord threads on a specific channel to discuss the relationships between their characters, roleplay draft storyboards that didn't make it to production but nonetheless may influence how the Writers think about characters relationships, invent new backstory and plan their next Uptime together.
