I agree with other posts.  Don't assign one player as
"the Captain," let them work that out themselves.

This is what I was blundering about with in suggesting
a repetitive image, but I also wanted the image to be
a hint of who the players really were:  A guy named
Doug?  Some old lady in a rest home?  A guy in a
hospital for the criminally insane, I should think.

You may want to give some of the characters definite
clues that they are not a whole person.  Some of them
may even be aware that they share a body with two or
more of the other players (but you could slyly hint
they're all demons or something like that.)
