[@Eviledd1984]  There should definitely be at least local voice chat...though that might make it hard for our actor friend to hide he's a guy.  Hmm...maybe he just claims not to have a mic.  I know some people that don't, or that can't talk for whatever reason.

I figure there's adventurer guild hubs that give out quests and stuff.  I dunno about user-run guilds, but probably?
