There are a total of 10 possible heroes in each kingdom. Each quest requires at least one hero, sometimes two; and some quests require SPECIFIC heroes, while others are more flexible. For instance, quest A may require just the monarch, quest B may require the monarch and the knight, quest C may be able to use the monarch OR the knight and either the doctor or the spy, and so on
Sooo yeah... since out of the box the game requires you to ALWAYS be on a quest, and specific heroes are tied to specific quests, and quest selection has strategic consequences (in terms of how your kingdom develops), it might get kinda tricky. Which is not to say it can't be done, just depends on how flexible you and your boyfriend are in terms of who plays when.
Of course, if you use the cheat that allows you to play the "free time" quest, which is essentially goal-free play and allows you to use any sim, you don't need to worry about that
