Right, well, one thing that you need to be aware of with MPD scenarios is
not to have one personality be totally dominant.  Yes, there will be a
dominant personality, or like Gar's scenario you can have only one that
can interact with the GM, but I've come across MPD scenarios where the
character backgrounds have suggested that one specific character is the
main one and that you're submissive towards them or whatever.

Something I did once was give all the players the same character
background, personality etc. and let them interpret it in their own way.
They were all the one person, but they had independent thought and
movement.  The scenario could easily have been UA and it was called Cracks
in the Surface.  (If you think it might be of any help it's downloadable
from http://www.irishgaming.com/Scenarios/crack.zip).
