My question is simple - do you know of any resource detailing NPC adventure parties I can use as rivals/competitors in Tomb of Annihilation?

Strong preference to resources with images I can show my players.

(That is, stat blocks or editions aren't nearly as important. My ideal is a single picture displaying a whole group of D&D fantasy NPCs that would work as a team.)

I tried googling but apparently couldn't find good keywords. Thanks in advance.

Since I'm looking for plausible jungle adventurers, this gets considerably less easy, since noone will wear plate in Chult.

Let me start off by one of the few images I did find, maybe it gives you an idea of what I'm looking for:

As you can see, this is a blindingly white party, but at least they're not in obvious heavy armor.

Assigning names and class to this lot is then the easy part. (In this case imagoogling found names already assigned: Perrol, Kross, Glaive*, Jarlyn and Ghoral)

*) the sneaky part is that Glaive doesn't use a glaive while Ghoral does

This is my Go-To whenever I need a group of non-specific adventurers.

Sadly I know of no such resource. Though I do know it helps when you get more specific in your search terms.

You should check out the Swedish fantasy game Dragons & Demons - it does feature fantasy hero ducks

Looks more like a fauchard to me. Maybe a good reason to rename one of the characters?

Try this link:

https://www.google.com/search?biw=1.......0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.uwxxOlC9cI4

It's Google image search with "RPG Adventuring Parties" for the search criteria. I especially like the far right, 2nd image down (pirates planning in a tavern).

I don't have a good image but the adventure deep carbon observatory featured a viscous and cunning rival party. Also, "the old companions" in The Peridot, Issue 1 By David McGrogan is worth looking up.

I agree. Perrol is now Fauchard!

I must admit, this combination of words does pique my interest!
