Editing Willing Converts

Willing converts (from James Knevitt)
Wouldn't there be a not-so-small number of people who would be willing
converts to a new reality? For example, I imagine a lot of Ren Faire types
would jump at the chance to be an Aysle convert -- you get to use magic,
live and work with 'fantasy' races, etc. Likewise for Cyberpapacy -- if
you're a big cyberpunk fan and are willing to put up with the oppressive
nature of the Church (or want to go and be some kind of street tough), then
it would be a fine place to go. What about Nile Empire? It's the 1930s, with
exotic Egyptian magic and weird science. It's basically like living in the
world of Indiana Jones or The Mummy. So on, so forth.

Of course, the realms are the way they are because they were written to
mirror common tropes and genres that people find exciting and entertaining.
Wouldn't a certain number of Core Earth inhabitants find the idea of living
in some of these realities (particularly AY, CP and NE) equally exciting and
entertaining?

Sure, that's where some of the converts came from. There's even a
character out of the Character Collection who is a
roleplayer-turned-barbarian. I could see some of the conversions being
"voluntary", but I think that converting to a "friendly" reality is
quite likely to create a Possibility-rated individual.

There would be, in fact the High Lords encourage it to happen; the
more people in an area willing to believe in/support a reality the
easier it is for them to establish their stelae zones. While some of
the HLs go for the blunt approach (ie, invading armies) others use
advance agents to encourage natives to viewpoints suitable towards
supporting the invading reality, going after people with pre-
conceived notions already favorable towards the invading reality
would be an obvious tactic.
