One solution to mules might be to allow players to only have one
"active" character at a time.  For a character to work off time debt
it must be active.

To expand play opportunities for hard-core players you could open it
to allowing one active character per shard.  So the player could
build multiple characters simultaneously, but those various
characters wouldn't be able to interact.
