The original starting plot that has evolved into a plort arc of the game was that three girls were kidnapped from Shadowdale, and the PC's who where there to try to become Harpers decided to take on the rescue to prove thier value to that organization. In the two years of gaming a lot has happened, they have freed Daggerdale from Zhentish yoke and discovered records in Daggerfalls that indicated where two of the three girls are. One is in Zhentil Keep, the other in Darkhold. They have travelled to Crom Orp and are preparing to infiltrate the fortress... and there the game rests.The PC's are at 12th level now, and writing up NPC's to oppose them is frankly a boring chore that I dread at this point. There is a temple to Bane that is intimatly linked to the Fortress that they are currently involved in an open conflict with. Writing up the head priest, his Paladin of Tyranny Cohort, a high level mage, and three 10+ level underlings took forever to do. I love writing story... but the details needed to put together just the stats needed to correclty run these guys was incredibly boring. To the point of tears.Now I am faced with writing up a fair number of NPC's to propulate the Fortress with. I don't need to detail the entire thing, heavens no. But I need enough NPC's to interact with to make the adventure possible. This means commanders and some henchmen, supporting spellcasters and so forth. They wont suicide themselves by frontal assult but I need a lot of NPC's. I've looked for a good resource for NPC's that has intelligent spell selections, feat progressions, and reasonably high levels and have come up short.Has anyone run an adventure in Darkhold? There is a useful web book out there at <a href="http://home.cfl.rr.com/greyghostrecon/" target="_blank">http://home.cfl.rr.com/greyghostrecon/</a> however most of the actual data in it is copied from other FR official sources rather than original material, and there aren't any stats in it.</blockquote>
