NPCs with Personality, Not Just Stats

Every NPC gets a rich profile — personality traits, backstory, faction, alignment, relationship to the party, and DM-only secrets. When the rogue asks what the innkeeper knows, you have the answer without flipping through notes.

Combat-Ready When You Need Them

NPCs can carry optional combat stats — CR, HP, AC, key attacks, special abilities, and full ability scores. Add an NPC with HP to a combat encounter and they auto-populate in the battle tracker as a combatant, just like monsters.

Lightweight Party Character Cards

Each party member gets a card with name, class, race, level, player name, ability scores, and a direct D&D Beyond link. Characters auto-populate as combatants in every battle encounter, so you never have to add them manually.

Scene Linking & Cast Management

Link NPCs and monsters to any scene or beat in your campaign. The Cast & Creatures section shows everyone present in a scene at a glance — with avatar, faction, CR, and a flyover for full details. Social beats promote the cast list front and centre with talking points per NPC.
