NPCs with Sidekicks and Sidequests S5E14

Role Play Chat

NPCs are the lifeblood of any setting. These denizens shape the world your players experience. Sometimes we make them up on the spot, other times we give them complex motivations and roles to play in the intrigue of our campaigns. Join me and Kurt from Sidekicks and Sidequests as we chat about NPC creation, roleplay and go over some internet strategies for making NPCs more engaging at your table. If you want to hear more of Kurt's insights you should check his website here:⁠ https://sidekicksandsidequests.com/ Happy gaming & much love -Mat ~ Affiliate Links & Support ~ Extended Episodes: ⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/RolePlayChat⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ My Terrain Etsy Shop:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dungeonterraindepot.etsy.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ DriveThruRPG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?affiliate_id=3513284⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Hero Forge: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.heroforge.com/tap/?ref=roleplaychat ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Ko-fi:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/role_play_chat⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Tabletop Giant: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tabletopgiant.ca/ROLE_PLAY_CHAT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ————— Role Play Chat is a biweekly podcast where Mat sits down with content creators from the table top roleplaying game community to take deep dives into #ttrpg related topics (for games such as #DungeonsandDragons, Fates, Warhammer or Call of Cthulhu). These informal discussions are filled with stories, advice, insights and hopefully will serve as inspiration for fellow Game Masters and Players. ————— Where to find me, Mat, on socials?
