About The Book

The barkeep at the tavern. The blacksmith forging weapons. The odd stranger in the woods...Game Masters constantly need to flesh out new characters in the middle of a game, and this dynamic deck lets them create unique non-player characters (NPCs) with the draw of three cards. This deck is a fully functioning game add-on that’ll create fully realized NPCs instantly!

Does your adventuring party frequently engage with the characters you haven’t generated stats for, leaving your well-thought-out NPCs in the dust and forcing you to create new and interesting characters on the fly? Don’t worry—The Düngeonmeister NPC Generator is the perfect tool to help!

With the pull of three cards, you can create a unique NPC (non-playable character) in an instant. Draw one of each type to find out:
-The Who? provides a physical shell of a character, an alignment, personality details, and more.
-The What? describes an item of note in the NPC’s possession, its background, and how it modifies the character’s abilities.
-The Why? gives the character their desires, reasons to interact with the PCs, possible side quests, and other perspectives.

The deck’s 90 cards can create over 25,000 possible combinations—all fully compatible with 5E and adaptable to other RPG mechanics. This deck is perfect for GMs looking for something functional and fun to help them fill out encounters with interesting adventuring additions that can assist the party, generate side quests, or even serve as an improvised foe in the tavern.

This deck focuses on the NPC element, providing thousands of NPC options to add to any campaign!
