Non-Player Compendium

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Creating NPCs Like Never Before

From the sucessfully Non-Player Cards Kickstarter comes the first installment of the NPC series, the Non-Player Compendium. A hanbook containing everything you need to create a unique and engaging character with little to no prep. Inside, the book is arranged into 8 chapters each with their own art and roll-lists.

  • Names (no images here, but two lists, a name generator and a name list)
  • Professions
  • Personalities
  • Relationships
  • Quirks
  • Traits
  • Goals
  • Secrets

Each chapter (except names) feature 50 facets and include a short write-up which give can give you direction and inspiration on how to run that character or NPC. This literally gives your several hundred trillion character combinations!!

Also, its generic so the Non-Player Compendium can be used for any setting and contains no rules or mechanics so it can be used for any system! Throught the handbook, is some of the evocative art, digitally painted by our artist Eren Arik.

Completly adaptable for creating new NPCs or enhcancing existing ones, this is a must-have resource for GMs of any System or Setting.

Hey Jeff,
Sorry, I forgot to put the product updates in this entry as well,
I will update the download to have the lists, but the text is just entering editing now and should be ready to publish at the end of the month.
I apologize for the delay, but its all about making a quality product.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
