Rooms have a tickbox called "hide player character" which can be used for title/menu/credits screens, etc.

If the hide player option is ticked [the Character.on variable] holds 0. This is an undocumented Character.on variable, which is normally 1, but you can also set it to 0 to make the character invisible.

Note that Character.Walk and the like don't work with characters turned off this way.

N.B. Directly modifying Character.room won't prompt a room change, it'll just make the player character disappear, which is another way to do this.
