NPC Primer

This has been established to provide a quick reference for some notable NPC's that will play some role in the storyline North by Northwest. GM Kenstrom will update this page weekly during the storyline if there are any changes, or as new NPC's are introduced or new information is learned. It's also worth noting that over half of the NPC's listed are brand new or new-ish, so a player does not need to have knowledge of years of previous storylines in order to engage the NPC's and become involved.
