New type of staff: NPC Controllers.

Well, I have seen it on numerous sites and they have staff which is known as, 'NPC controllers'. The main outline of what these guys/girls do is role-play NPC characters for people who are doing a mission, however they want someone to role-play their NPC... Or, in a main story line event they use these NPC controllers to control a creature of some sort, being it a wild animal or being it a massive evil being that randomly emerged.

So, here is a more detailed outline of what a 'NPC controller' is...

Taken from a bleach role playing site:

Quote :

This position is for people who want to play as other NPC characters for members on the site, controlling huge outbreaks of war on the site and NPCing for other characters who plan on upgrading their powers with the help NPC's. (I.E. someone fighting their inner hollow) This is an important job and most be played out by active members on the site.

Okay, I will try and explain it in more depth now.

Alrighty then. Say I had a character that was doing a mission ONLY with his character (or with multiple people) and they vs. say... a massive robot bear some how. What the NPC controllers job would be is, make an application for the enemy, and based on it's powers and level of power it is given a strength level. Once the application is made, the NPC controller can use this creature to fight against the main character.

the name pretty much explains itself, NPC controller... they control other NPC's for people. NPC's being characters that are in your story line but you want someone else to RP as them. These NPC's are usually a once in a life time use, otherwise they are just normal characters.

I suggest making a new whole section purely for applications? Splitting it into NPC's, OC's (Original characters) and such.

That is all I can drag out for the moment

If the need ever arose, I'd be more than willing to do such a thing. Especially if we started doing some rps based on animes and mangas, because I have characters for Bleach and Naruto in DnD campaigns. i know how the inner battle is usually done and I would love to do that. I'm also a DM for DnD on occasion, so I can control NPC encounters.
