EN World City Project: NPC Contest #1... Final Results!!!!

[Lalato]

Felix... that is correct.

Here is an "official" format for us to work with...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Name
Background/Role/Plot Hook
NPC Stat Block
Other Stat Blocks as needed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This puts all the stat blocks at the end... Other Stat Blocks are for those NPCs that player characters will be required to interact with if they explore the plot hook.

Example... Your NPC is a parent whose child was kidnapped by someone... Both the parent and the kidnapper would probably need a stat block...

question: are we expected to have been following the posts regarding the development of the city thus far (history, geography, layout, resources, culture, etc...) and incorporate that information into our NPCs? I haven't been following that closely (I stick to the General and Rules fora).

It would be helpful, but not necessary to follow those forums. This thread has all of the links to the various info forums...

http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/show...&threadid=43533

or you could just go to the Plots & Places Forum and look for City Project or Mor's End.

There are currently threads on Geography, Government, NPCs, Crafts and Trades, History... As new threads begin... I will post them to the above link.

Again... it's not necessary to know all of the details in those forums. The information is constantly evolving. However, if you want to base something off of info from those threads, feel free to do so. It would definitely help in making Mor's End a tightly woven community.

And are they intended to be a part of an adventure for PCs, or just an interesting character in a city (I seem to recall that we're trying to populate the ENTIRE city in other posts). In other words, are we creating a person, or a situation of interest to PCs centered on a person?

This contest is designed to create NPCs that provide plot hooks for player characters to explore. Those plot hooks don't necessarily have to lead to a big adventure. They can be simple errands, rumors, or more. I'll leave that part up to you guys.

Count me in, if there is still room.

The prize is worth competing for and I love crafting NPC's anyway!

 

[Ashon]

Me Tooo!

If PaganPriest is in, I'll throw my lot in to make it an even 10 contestants. When I say the note about the contest yesterday I meant to get on board, but I got distracted by hours of digesting all the other threads on the subject.

I assume I am waaaay to late for this.

 

[MerakSpielman]

Not necessarily... we still need alternates.

 

[blargney]

I'd like to try my hand at it!
