        One thing I have have noted in my logs to consider is doing a parallel to
        the Veils of Alzaroc (a great book BTW). Very simply, in the book people
        live on the surface of a decayed star which has a number of peculiar
        characteristics. One of the oddities is that there are periodic "veil
        falls". The general result is that any character can interact with any
        other character within a dozen or so veil fall layers of them on either
        side. Further seperation and they can still _see_ them, but are no longer
        able to interact (they walk right thru them etc). The really interesting
        aspect is that this also applies to the physical universe as well. A 20
        veil-fall character may be able to see the freshly landed 0 fall
        space-ship, but will walk right thru it, the 40 fall character conversely
        won't even see the ship and visa versa.
        
        This would be paralleled in the game by having characters which are too
        widely seperated (levels or whatever) not even able to be aware of each
        other, let alone interact. Characters on a closer par would be able to
        detect each other, even communicate with some effort (writing for
        instance), but not direct physical interaction. Etc.
