Persona Effect; How much the 'character' effects the new person.

Just moving this away from the other thread to make things easier to look at.

In regards to being influenced by the persona I think that it could work as a spectrum rather than a 'Limit track'. Perhaps the more that you use the memories/skills, the more that you're influenced with them (although learning how to do them 'yourself' would limit that degree of influence).

Additionally the mindset of various types could be easier to fall into especially if something about your new body is 'unacceptable'. By that I mean that if you wake up as a 'monster' then rejecting that could give the underlying persona more influence. Add in that there might be some baseline 'habits' which your new mind and form are used to...

Merior, that... that was pretty much what I had in mind for the persona effect... @_@

Given the above I imagine that, early on when people are relying a lot on their 'other skills', there would be a strong influence on many people. But when they have a chance to not have to use those then they could 'revert' and realise some of what they had been doing.

And then there would be those whose new natures would induce them to behave a certain way... think of oWoD vampires and their natures.

Not sure if this has been brought up in the chat or elsewhere, so I might as well ask here.

Although we ourselves seem to be heading along the line of original characters, what about those that become actual trademarked/copyrighted characters? Specifically, will there be any duplicates among them, or is there only one instance each of... say... Ranma, or Solid Snake, or whoever?

Hmm... I'm going to say that there might be duplicates? But not exactly the same duplicates.

ie Ranma, Ranma-chan, assorted variantions of Ranma (Samurai Ranma, Ninja Ranma, Magical Girl Ranma) might occur, but they wouldn't be the same even if they resemble each other.
