What is an entity?
An entity is ".chr" file that you place on a map. Townspeople, party members, shop keepers, etc. found within the worlds of verge games are all examples of entities.

Those of you who have used other kinds of GCEs (or who are familiar with video games in general) will know about sprites. An entity is a sprite with some variables and code associated with it to allow it to serve as a PC or NPC. Some entity data is built into the chr file, while other data is determined when you place the entity in the map editor, or at runtime when you spawn a new entity.
