Pathfinder NPC Core

Pathfinder NPC Core is a sourcebook of ready-made non-player characters for the Pathfinder tabletop roleplaying game. It offers more than 250 stat blocks, covering everyone from servants and farmers to masters of magic and martial arts. Devotees of the gods, cunning mercenaries, fun-loving performers, crafty engineers and devious villains all have a place in it.

The NPCs are designed to be fun and easy to use, and come with sets of adjustments for quickly changing a character's ancestry, level and more. A collection of NPCs is also dedicated to non-human ancestries, including a dwarf general, a goblin get-gang and a kobold egg guardian.

Every section is built around a theme and includes lore, custom rules and random tables to enliven play. The aim is to spare game masters from inventing statistics on the fly.
