I'd go out on a limb and guess the problem with OOC in the IC is when it's several posts in a row that are just OOC lines. That's a case where it really should have been moved here.<br/><br/>On NPCs I'm going to defend Velka here. Outside of Lilissa (and to an extent the head cleric) every NPC to appear has been a nameless mook of some description. It's only natural they be characterless.<br/><br/>Now if your problem is the fact these mooks effectively disappear as soon as they're swallowed outside of the Nat 1 guy that turned out to have a fetish for it, I can see where you're coming from. When you're not inclined to post sexualized swallowing either for sexual preference or IC time pressure reasons, nor all that gung-ho about posting digestion it creates a lack of feedback loop where posting your character struggling with the size of their belly gets harder and harder to do since it's just dead weight that only exists during your post.<br/><br/>PCs is trickier. Nez is a lech who I've tried to imply has asked everyone to sleep with her at least once. But for that same reason she's probably been shot down by the other PCs. The scouting mission felt like it took place in the span of an afternoon. It was pretty much over before anyone that wasn't there even had the chance to do anything in that time. The mill is best forgotten about outside of an example of why it's important to label mooks once there are more than 2-3 of them. And other than those moments it's pretty much been either combat or time to move the plot.<br/><br/><span style="font-size: 85%; line-height: 116%;">That said, I did plan to have Nez comment about Lexi's 'most virile' line during my next proper post.</span>
