Full of amazing ideas and clever content! The art is a bit blurry, and the overall composition a bit rushed, but the contet writing serves its purpose really well!

This is a great set of tools. I always spend way too much time on insignificant NPCs so I really wanted something to fill the space between a simple name genorator and my books of major NPCs. This handbook fills that void nicely. I do all my session planning and organizing in Notion so I easily plugged these tables into my workspace for quick access and cross reference. The layout and design of the pages are great too so I'm happy to have the complete pdf for my collection. Great work!

I have recently started writing my first campaign and this has been a good tool to make one and done NPC's and even some Key NPC's that i've been struggling to make. If i had to make it short i'd say Incredible work, Very well done!! Many Thanks for this great piece!

This is an amazing resource. At first, I was skeptical that, as it contains mostly tables, you wouldn't be able breathe life into the NPCs. However, about half an hour before a game I was running began, I realized I needed to flesh out a merchant that'd be working with the party. In less than 5 minutes, the merchant was more unique than half the NPCs I'd made without this.

This is an awesome resource. I wish I had come looking for it sooner. It would have saved a lot of stumbling as the DM trying to invent a new character on the spot. It is too bad that this wasn't included as an appendix at the end of the DMG.

The Graphics were a bit over done. I feel like the charts were overshadowed by the graphics.

A very useful tool that helps you create unique and fleshed out characters in seconds. Please don't settle for the printer friendly version, its only 22 pages long and the normal version is brilliant, just go to your local print shop and print the full thing. A lovely print for every DM.

This product was well put together with an easy to read layout and nice images and colors. The charts are easy to use and helpful, although they contain nothing ground breaking. For pay what you choose it is a better than expected product and well worth the amount I chose.

This is a must have for anyone who struggles improvising random NPCs that they hadn't planned or simply add flavor to the NPCs they create in session prep. It has tables to roll looks, goals, powers, quirks, etc. It will definitely make my life easier when preparing for a game session

Only giving it 4 stars due to it not really being printer friendly. I have an ecotank and this ate through my ink trying to print. The pages were so soaked that they actually started to fold in on themelves because there was no structure. I would suggest adding a version with just the rolls without any pictures. especially for those who don't have the money to replace 3 ink cartridges in their printers just to print 22 pages. While I love the artwork, it just isnt practical to be printed at home.

Other than that I love the book and I can't wait to use it in my campaign. It seems very easy to use and pretty straight forward. It will defintly liven up our gameplay by being able to quickly add NPC's

Thank you very much for your feedback. Will try to include a version without the art for easy print and also keep that in mind for future ones. Wishing you happy sessions :)

Excellent book! You can have this ready whenever you DM, and look something up on the spot, to create your NPCs. This is the definition of "Hand"book, it will help me a lot for my sessions! Great job, keep it up!

I personally feel like this book is a MUST for every DM out there. It doesn't only help you create many NPCs quick and easy, but also expands your fantasy all around in character creation. BIG Thumbs up ! Really good job !
