Join Ang and J.T. for a discussion about how to best make use of non-player characters (NPCs) in your game. Are these gnomes main enough characters to keep out of the stew?
- You can find all the books J.T. mentioned at the Writers Helping Writers bookstore.
- This is the “feeling wheel” J.T. described (click for large version):
It was popularized as a tool for writers by English teacher Kaitlin Robbs and is based on the therapeutic tool developed by Dr. Gloria Willcox. - Check out Masks: 1,000 Memorable NPCs for Any Roleplaying Game from Engine Publishing.
