======================================================================Other: possession======================================================================Possession is a special subset of RP Rule one, refering to people playing two characters at oncecoinhabiting the same body. Generally speaking this is illegal, for the reasons that it conveysmuch of the same unfair advantages as playing alts together or authoring NPCs.When it's ok:If the possession is long term and complete, if someone is taken over by a demon or being and isjust that demon or being and not who they used to be, and will be that demon or being for theforseeable future, ie at least a few weeks without change from one to the other at all. Then it'sjust really a character change and therefore fine. This means you can't be one with the occational'glimpse' of the other showing through or anything similar, you are entirely one or the other.When the posessing force is non sentient. If you are possessed by a spirit or force that might makeyou a little darker, or more animalistic or even lighter but has no real thoughts of it's own, thisis fine.When the minds merge, similar to above in that there is only one resultant mind, even though it mighthave memories of both or be something differnet to  either one it is just one mind.When it is the product of psychological forces, ie your character is legitimately and mundanely insane.They again aren't actually two people but just one with a psychological defect that presents asdifferent personalities.----------------------------------------------------------------------See Also: rp rules
