Bring life to the inhabitants of the world of the Pathfinder Chronicles with this exciting new reference for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Why waste precious prep time crunching stat blocks when Paizo does the work for you? The lavishly illustrated 64-page NPC Guide provides scores of fully realized NPCs with strong ties to the Pathfinder setting, each with statistics, motivations, and mannerisms, and a new mechanic for handling favors and NPC-granted boons in the campaign. Additionally, the book contains dozens of quick-and-dirty stat blocks for such campaign staples as Red Mantis assassins, Hellknights, Scarni thugs, Linnorm King marauders, prophets of Kalistrade, and more—one for each nation in the Pathfinder Chronicles campaign setting. As an added bonus, the NPC Guide also includes full statistics and backgrounds for the personal characters of Paizo Publishing staffers such as Erik Mona, Jason Bulmahn, Sean K Reynolds, F. Wesley Schneider, James Jacobs, and more!

I have a few books with various NPC's in them but I would like a way of tieing them into the PRPG campaign setting and this could be that answer. Thank you agin Paizo. And I still wish I had more money coming in so I could buy more. Dagnabit!!!!!!

Damn, I'm a sucker for products like these. Faces of Sigil was one of my all-time favorite TSR books.
Very much looking forward to this.

I'm rather happy to see a product like this coming out. I've been running Star Wars Saga for about 6 months now, and I find the ready to use stats for the various goons/jedi-sith/monsters to be rather handy for my prep. It'll be nice to have some ready to plug-in NPC's to throw in a game for encounters now, especially having them all in one source.

You know, back when WOTC started to put monsters with class levels in the Monster Manuals, I didn't like it, but not because I didn't want monsters with class levels, but because I wanted a Monster Manual to introduce new monsters.
I actually did want a book that gave me characters with the stats already done. In fact, I really liked some of the "generic" NPCs in Cityscape, for example, in case the players do go off the rails and you need to have some stats handy, or just don't want to build someone from scratch.
On top of all of that, I really did want a book back in the 3.5 days of Realms NPCs that were flavored for their particular factions and useful as utility characters, such as Zhent patrols or Eldreth Veluuthra assassins.
This product sounds like it has a lot of potential. I'm really hoping for good things from this.
