Basic Character Syntax

[arces]

Figure out the basic syntax of characters in lua.

Some examples might be

I was thinking it might be more like this. For a character named Joe, a file Joe.lua:

return {
    name = "Joe Bloggs",
    description = "A totally generic character.",
    spritesheet = "joe.png",
}

And then in joe_actions.lua (or something like that):

function on_interact ()
    say "Hi, I'm Joe!"
end

It's also possible that we could autowrap the function on_interact and end around this, making a file like joe_on_interact.lua be simply

say "Hi, I'm Joe!"

which is much more intuitive.

We could also mix and match markup and Lua approaches.
