There should exist conventions within the mod to describe different writing styles; such as 1st/3rd person styles, vocalized/unvocalized options:

  • "I'll do this!", said Player
  • Player decided to do that (said the narrator)
  • I should do that. (thought Player)

That's a very important point.

There are also actions/thoughts/intentions done/hold by the NPC itself. For now, I've written those in brackets, i.e. "Oh, you want to know the secret? [NPC quickly looks over his shoulder and then talks to you in a low voice] It's 'top secret'. But don't tell anyone! [NPC stares at you]"

We might as well use italic font with the appropriate tag: <i>The NPC nods heavily.</i>:
The NPC nods heavily.

Any further ideas on this? Some form of convention would be good. I used [NPC does something.], but italics would be equally nice as square brackets.
