NPC+
A downloadable game
NPC+ is a system-neutral follower management and creation tool to make NPC companions easy to run and feel like a resource on and off the battlefield.
Features:
- Bond Dice represent the player's bond with the NPC and increase in size as the player helps the NPC with their goals.
- 6 Archetypes act as NPCs' classes that unlock new abilities as their bond increases with the players.
- Quick & Easy follower creation tables serve as springboards for giving the followers interesting details and flesh out your game's world-building.
- Easy NPC management rules. Passive damage bonus rewards players for describing how their follower helps in battle. Streamlined rules for NPC actions and attacks mean more utility for the player without slowing down game play.

For games like Cairn and Into the Odd, where there are no bonuses or modifiers to roll, what would you suggest to adapt this module? It’s excellent by the way!
Thank you! In systems with no attack rolls, just use their BD as their damage dice for attacks. In a streamlined system like Cairn i would just roll flat d20 for any checks/test that need to be made, no need to add any extra complication.
My design intent is that you would only roll for NPCs if you absolutely needed to, otherwise just use the players rolls for both them and their followers.
Fantastic! I am a fan of your designs by the way!!!
Thank you so much!
Oh, I just remebebered about Kismet and I think NPC+ and Kismet would just go great together!
