Let's build NPC for everyone to use!

[Lady Platypus]

Hello!
As a master I'm always looking for new complex NPCs to introduce in my campaign. While I like making them up myself, it takes a lot of time to properly make a character that feels real (not just the random merchant with no name).

While game like Pathfinder offer a lot of pre-generated complex NPCs, Starfinder doesn't have that yet. You have some tools to help you build them, but you can't just grab one at the ready.

So this is what I thought: wouldn't it be nice if we made a thread where everyone contributes by making some NPCs?

Anything works, even home-brew abilities or races (as long as you write it's HB).

If you guys are interested, let me know and we'll start making them up! Or be the first to post one :)

The Character Concept Generator from sfrpgtools might be useful: https://www.sfrpgtools.com/character-concept-generator

And Ravingdork has a bunch of characters ready to go at the Ravingdork's Crazy Character Emporium (Starfinder Edition) thread.

Ravingdork's characters are pretty sweet I have to say too!

I'd like to see some characters with class grafts :)

[Ravingdork]

Thanks for the kind words guys!

I would be VERY interested in seeing someone try to convert my gallery of misfit characters into NPC statblocks using the NPC creation rules. That might get this thread off to a good start.

I have a couple antagonist NPCs for campaign baddies if that counts. I'll put them when I get home if so.

How frigging cool is that? I could play with that dude all day. In fact... I will play with him all day as soon as I need a new character.

[Homebrew] Kuthite Snare Cloak (magic item): A series of animate spurred chains draped about one’s shoulders. When an enemy attempts a melee attack, they must succeed at a reflex save or gain the entangled condition. An entangled creature cannot move further away from you, and you must make a reposition maneuver if your movement takes you out of the creature’s reach. If they are still entangled at the start of their next turn, they may attempt an acrobatics or strength check to escape. On failure, they become grappled, and take piercing damage until they are freed. There are enough chains to entangle 1 Large creature, 2 medium creatures, or 4 small creatures.

If you don't mind tossing characters that could be played by a player at your group I have a file that you might be interested in.

Dossiers - Playable Characters - Volume #1

The above linked file currently stands at 93 player character usable creations. Volume 1 will close when it reaches a count of 100, and then Volume 2 will be started. However, if that is not what you want then I suggest checking out the alien archive chapter of the file below. In either case I hope you enjoy what I have created.

Very cool!
