Say you create a metanovel in which you create a completely fictional character. They can contact you. This I understand. They can ask you questions tell you stories, essentially you can create a new member of your life.
What if you include a character in your metanovel that is based on someone you already know? Will there be two of the same people in the world; by which I mean the original(the person the character is based on) and the character copy you create. What if the copy had some tweeks you add to make the character more interesting, would the original be bitter they weren't good enough? Would the copy know they were better than the original? Can the copy contact anyone else or just the author? Would the copy consider the wuthor to be their creator? Their God? Wouldn't the author be able to create a whole army of characters? Would the character created in reflection of an actual human be able to contact more than just the author since the character was not an original idea of the author?
