NPCs in disco are basically void fillers. You can use them in RP like.. emm.. lemme think real quick.
Right. When someone for example is shooting NPCs that are allies to you, then you can shoot said player provided you RPd a warning and after this an engagement notice.
But when its about information, you are mostly limited to bar rumors, bar news and things the NPCs 'say' ingame, but nothing beside that, because, again, they are void fillers.

Real actual roleplay information is obtained through players. Through interaction, and that which is already available to your faction (that doesnt mean you have access to faction comms contents and the likes).

Metagaming here, is that if you use any information your character -should not- have access too against other players. Such as if the Order were to make a RP post against the Blood Dragons that they are assembling a secret fleet at Nagano, and my KNF char all of a sudden knows about this.

I hope this answers your question a bit,

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.
