Player and Character Autonomy

bluegargantua asks:

Due to a Concession, Assertion or other reality-warping event, it's declared that my character is a necrophiliac. This really doesn't fit with my character concept. Do I have any recourse to strike that from the record or make it untrue? I declare someone a racist alcoholic, can they invalidate that statement?

Tom's right, to a point. Thats pretty much what the rules do, in Shadows in the Fog, and thus Age of Paranoia, you can and usually should make forceful statements about other people’s characters. What you can’t do is explain how this will happen, or exactly what the details are. The principle is similar, but the differences are worth considering.

I think an important point is this only explains the outerworld, never the innerworld.

The other important part is you can only describe it in that scene. You can explain that in a given scene a character is acting forthright, but not why, nor are you saying that character is now forthright.
