Non-Player Characters (NPCs) Non-Player-Characters (NPCs) are temporary or background characters that do not have their own account. NPCs can be used in a variety of ways, such as: Temporary characters that are needed for an event, plot, or random event 'Background' characters in a faction, such as guards, messengers, etc Family members for your character or unadopted pups Animals that can be hunted or interacted with Spirits or deities that can be interacted with NPCs should not be used to unfairly alter the outcome of any situation. Players may post/play an NPC using the NPC account. The NPC account is automatically linked for all players to use. Be sure to switch back out of the NPC account when you're done so others can use the account. PLEASE DO NOT UNLINK THE NPC ACCOUNT FROM YOUR ACCOUNT, as this will unlink the account from all players. If your character is also present in the thread, the NPC's actions can be included within your normal character post. NPC Stats NPCs can utilize dice-rolls in a thread by using the "NPC Dice-roll" options on the dice-roll screen. NPCs and hunted animals have stats and health based on their size.
