[QUOTE="Athinar, post: 6403800, member: 6781944"] Sparrowhawc, I'm with you, started in 79 playing all types of game to include Chainmail. The creation of NPC's is hard to figure out and the CR of Non-Players Characters is even harder and does not fit any standard formatting. It is like they don't wants us to build NPC's (maybe a $50 supplement is coming out with NPC's only and how to create them) (I think some times the group that created this 5th Ed were smoking crack and weed and drinking cases of beer (I see empty beers cans and dice all over the playing table)). So I to create the major NPC with the PHB and use the MM NPC's for quick Monsters only. Also some players have never heard of a NPC being played by a Player and being taken over by that player, thus becoming a PC I have had players leave to go overseas and their characters became NPC's for a short time until new players came and took over the NPC(PC) [/QUOTE]
