Muses as guest-player slots
I am really beginning to love the idea of welcoming single-session guest players, recurring guest players, or spouses who just drop in to make a few sarcastic comments, by having them play the muse of one of the players for the session.
"[strong]*beep*[/strong] Your muse is now installing servicePack-7.<guestPlayerName>Personality! This [font=Arial Bold][size=14]MusePersonality[sup](tm)[/sup][/size][/font] was selected for you based on your naughty, naughty browsing history and on the (possibly sarcastic) recommendation of your old, terribly obsolete [font=Arial Bold][size=14]MusePersonality[sup](tm)[/sup][/size][/font]. Please click here and allow for one to two sessions loading time to revert to your previous, terribly obosolete [font=Arial Bold][size=14]MusePersonality[sup](tm)[/sup][/size][/font]."

:D
That's actually not half bad an idea, especially for anyone who might be more interested in just observing and taking an occasional action, unsure if they want to be entirely committed, or if they're more into the role-playing than the roll-playing. I also like having each person at the table play the muse for the person next to them, if they so decide.

I'm looking forwards to finding out how this works. The muses are supposed to be helpful, so I'm expecting a whole bunch of "helpful" muses with the sarcastic variable set to 11. Should be great fun.
