*PNPCs should never outshine a PC in any given scene unless prior discussion between players occurs. They are there to supplement a scene, but PCs should be taking the lead. | *PNPCs should never outshine a PC in any given scene unless prior discussion between players occurs.

*It is perfectly possible to switch a character that began as a PC to a PNPC, and to begin playing a PNPC as your PC, with your Captain's approval. If this occurs, the above guidelines for PNPCs should still be followed, regardless of whether a character began their life as a PC. | *It is perfectly possible to switch a character that began as a PC to a PNPC, and to begin playing a PNPC as your PC, with your Captain's approval.

*PNPCs should serve only as a supplement in order to allow a player to explore different sorts of characters, and not as a replacement for their PC or to supplement sim numbers without making the switchover official. SB118 ships strive to ensure that each department aboard has a certain number of PCs in order to provide for smooth storytelling, and neglecting a PC in favor of a PNPC can result in a duty post being underwritten which can make missions more difficult to administrate. | |||
