It all goes back to the top though.It is a little. They're the ones adding superfluous characters.
Suppose I write a branch to Kiyoko and Kinu where the PC gets the idea that getting them out of the orb through common means will screw things up and so they go on to find an alternative method thanks to... I dunno, Calise (wasn't she meant to be a way to improve Kasyrra or some shit) and as a result, you get Kiyoko's family without the time shift. Cue interactions with folks on the Tree, Wayfort and the starting village which then culminate in a picnic where the PC and Kiyoko eventually beat some random dipshit into oblivion.
Alas, I can't do that because Tobs would throw a shitfit and Savin enabled that. I'd have to go create new NPCs, which lands us at that problem you mentioned. Newer writers are stuck writing new characters or tiptoeing around the guidelines that the old writers have for that character.
Now it might hurt cohesion to just lift that hold in general but we would definitively have less new throwaway characters and you'd have more to do with those old folks.
Yeah. And if you sod off, either the work gets thrown to the lions or languishes in wait of someone willing to continue it... and go through all of the process they have to comply to submit bloody anything.I feel like anyone that suggests this should add the caveat that anything they write will become Savin's property, with no guarantee of having control of their own content afterwards.
Now if only we could give her a pink egg and be done with that scheisse.Probably something to do with same sex pregnancies leading to some uncomfortable questions on why you can't knock up Etheryn.
