sub-profiles?

[finchy]

Prehaps there is a plugin that allows you to easily create a sub-profile, or 'sub account.'
Well, as a roleplay site, it would be easier to have sub accounts to roleplay their seperate characters. '^^ y'know?

There are two plugins that do this: Alters and NPC Profiles. The only catch is that characters can only be added by staff members via the plugin's settings in the admin area.

While a plugin could technically be made to allow users to create the characters themselves, a plugin key (the method of storage for saving user-entered data in plugins) can only hold so much data before it reaches the file size limit, whereas the plugin settings page applies to the entire forum and allows for much more than a key would.
