NPCs

Writing villains is my job, but writing foils is my passion.

Asmodeus, shitty ex-boyfriend

Baphomet, Oubliette dungeoneer

Cucumber Baron, dead and pickled

Eepiy, arcanaloth mystic

Eight of Clubs, tragic gunslinger

Fourdrone, modron-hacker

Kiesha, liberated and enlightened sex-bot

Lady of Pain, awkward with breakups

Marchioness Tanthul, official nemesis

Montauciel, airscrew master

Nine of Spades, Count Chocula

Peter Piper, pickle druid

Sensei Critsmith, from the Just Roll High Dojo

Stance, emo bellhop

Yayik, designated hero

Viewing, Hot Tonic assistant manager

Any listed character is intended for more than one appearance. Boss fights are abstracted from the stats and behavior of normal D&D combatants and built around mechanics. Fourdrone, Peter Piper, Stance, and Yayik match the PC party level.
