 ==== Concept Creation Phase ====
-During this phase players will create certain basic concepts about the nature of play, and then main characters that fit that concept.
+During this phase players will create certain basic concepts about the nature of play. The concepts should probably involve the characters being peripatetic or some other explanation of a way in which the characters come across enough elements of the world to keep play involving discovery of new things.
+==== Player Roles ====
+Before creating characters, players select roles for the game. This is done first, as selection of roles my influence how players generate characters. The roles that may be selected are:
+  * Main Character Player - this player will play one or more of the main characters of the game. Main character here defined as ones who the players agree to keep the plot revolving around.
+  * Non-main Character Player - this player will be assigned to play characters who are not main characters. The plot does not revolve around non-main characters and the action rarely, if ever, follows them solely.
+  * World-Builder - this role involves the player being involved in the world-building mechanics, and making up details about the nature of the world as needed.
+  * Event Creator - this role involves coming up with events to be played out in scenes (typically involving one or more main characters).
+  * Others?
+The default is that all players do everything to start, with the exception of being a main character player. A player may "GM" by opting not to play a main character, and other players may do the same, essentially. Though they may well want and have secondary characters that are of significant importance.
+=== Changing Roles ===
+At certain times in the game, a player may drop or add a role. They may not drop a role, however, if they are the last player who has that role. They must instead wait until somebody else takes up that role before they may drop it. Note that a player may petition the game to have one of their secondary characters become a main character, which then makes them a main character player. And characters may be similarly demoted, with the player no longer being a main character player if this is their last such character. But this may not happen, again, if there are no other main character players.
+WIP
+==== Character Generation ====
+Usually players will generate characters that were invented in the concepts phase
