1. A method comprising:
monitoring a first one or more actions of a first character in a virtual environment;
generating a first score for the first character based at least in part on the monitored first one or more actions;
detecting an event between the first character and a second character in the virtual environment;
monitoring a second one or more actions of the first character in the virtual environment after the detected event;
generating a second score based at least in part on the monitored second one or more actions of the first character in the virtual environment after the detected event, wherein the second score is lower than the first score due to at least one of: (a) the first character changing action patterns in the virtual environment and (b) the first character performing one or more actions in the virtual environment that are not consistent with a prescribed role assigned to the first character; and
causing a visible property of the first character in the virtual environment to be altered based, at least in part, on a comparison of the first score to the second score.
