Obviously someone has to play them. We cant install a automated reply sytem. I'm thinking more along the lines of non [i]player[/i] characters. Characters that don't really belong to one player. Their more like an extension of the player characters, allowing them to further explore their personalty and develop their character as a whole. (Like showing off the more lethal abilities of all these op characters since you naturally cant auto hit or kill anyone.) Also, because of this fact, their disposable.
