The Deck of Endless NPCs was a blast to use. I was able to create interesting, viable NPC's super quickly and if a created NPC did not fit it was easy to lay out another one. If you find yourself having to create a random "Bob the Shopkeep" or "Wendy the Traveling Merchant" all the time then this could really be helpful!

Thanks for the video. The deck is actually more interesting than the Paizo description makes it seem. They have a Fantasy Grounds version; it would be great to see them turn this into a FoundryVTT mod as well.

It really is and I honestly wasn't expecting it to be as useful as it actually was... I was thinking it would be more of a curiosity than an actually useful tool. Plus, it really was kind of fun to use! Don

Very nice review. Loved the detailed explanation on how it works. The system they put in place is nice, but do seem a bit clunky when you have to improvise an NPC on the spot. But it feels like a fun tool to use for cooperative worldbuilding with your players, or in randomized-heavy games, so players can draw some cards to build the NPCs they encounter. All in all, interesting stuff to have around. I'd even say, for people coming with the Remaster, it could even be a pretty valuable ressource, as the GM Core ditched the NPC list compared to the OG GameMastery Guide (very unfortunately IMHO). Maybe not as valuable as the NPC Battle Cards tho (It could be another interesting review BTW). I wonder if they'll iterate on this, following the remaster. In the meantime, I'm kinda interested in acquiring those or reusing the system thanks to your vid. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for that and for the comment! It would be a few minutes during a session but I think it could be helpful, it would be funny describing the NPC as you are reading the layout for the first time! It would be nice to redo them with the Remaster out but I wonder how they would handle the Alignment part of. In play I like Edicts and Anathemas much better but that would be harder to replicate on the cards. The ditching of the NPC list was a bit of a blow... it was a very good resource! Don

I know it may not be in the purview of your content: but I know starfinder has a deck of endless worlds. I hope it's system agnostic too. I'm probably gonna get this one too.

They do and I saw it when I went to purchase this one. I'm waiting to see how the Next edition of Starfinder rolls out to see how much I want to cover that. I know that you might not be able to fully inter-play with both games but if it is close enough I'd love to cover it! Don
