[QUOTE="Chaoszero, post: 4967660, member: 82248"] I am trying to make a list of the most important NPCs of my homebrew from a world builder's standpoint. IE - not the characters that the players have so far run into the most; but rather ones I would mention to new players or describe in a setting summary. I got to thinking; What are the most important NPCs of any setting. Forgotten Realms and Eberron are the most familiar to me, but I'd accept help from lists of setting unknown to me as long as there is a short description of why they are essential. Help me think of important characters to inspire me with common archtypes to establish in my own setting. Every setting seems to have their "Merlin". Elminster, Gandalf, Fizban, etc. As well as a "Dark Lord/Knight". Also Kings and Rulers of nations would be important as well as leaders of major organizations, both good and evil. Who do you think are the most important to the fabric of any setting? [/QUOTE]
