NPC (Non-player characters) in any ttrpg or dnd can feel a little tedious to create.
In our worldbuilding podcast, we create some movie based npc's to fit into our unique setting. This setting was randomized by dice rolls and given the popular vote between 4 different worlds that we conceptualized.
These characters do not need to be challenging or time consuming to create. Sometimes as a DM you can get thrown on to your backfoot. Having these characters in your back pocket as a last defense can be wonderful. You already have negative traits and positive character traits.
We referenced a few things here, due to the nature of building characters this way. From Harry Potter to The Legend of Zelda to Walter white and Breaking Bad. We reference Katniss Everdeen from the Hunger Games as well Rocky Balboa.
We also referenced a wonderful social encounter article from https://thegamer.com
The characters created in this episode can be used for many purposes. From villains to heroes to random contest champions who want nothing more than to feed their family and would be totally fine never interacting with the party.
