I have been in contact with Photo and unfortunately he has decided to leave the game.<br/><br/>He did say he was fine with his characters becoming NPCs. I think Sophie could be abused quite thoroughly if you wish Reia. Adrian is a more complex and subtle character with a distinct personality so it may be best to have him fade into the background.<br/><br/>@ Summoner - I sent you a PM, so please let me know what you wish to do now with James.<br/><br/>@ Everyone - I have given Vin and Helvorn the go-ahead to NPC Adrian and have their characters move the Maya Bar scene along, even leaving if they wish.<br/><br/>EDIT: In response to a player seeking clarity over this, I have added a section to the first post of the thread that covers the Slave Collar Access Restrictor. I am open to having some of those settings adjusted but would like to keep it to a maximum of 10 settings so that the "zero" insult can still be used.
