| − | If we combine roll able tables with a custom sheet and multi-sided tokens, we can build a random npc generator. We are gonna need some tokens with some art, the more the better. I just used token tools, scrolled to all my pdfs with art that was fitting for the setting and made lots of portrait tokens. Add all of them to a roll able table. You can then spawn a token from that table. If you right-click that token you can see the multi sided option, choose random side to generate a random portrait. Now make a new character named "Random NPC", this character will be our standin for our token actions. Set your multi-sided token as standard token for the random npc. You will most likely need a name for your NPC, so we add a roll able table with names. Then we will add a ability to our "Random NPC" character to roll from the names table and whisper it to the gm:

| − | If we combine different tables we can also create names including surnames, second names or nicknames.

| − | Set it as a token action, and repeat this process with other things you wanna randomly generate, like personality, something strange about them, Gm-Intrusions or any other thing you can find a suitable table for. Keep it on the GM layer until you need it, and a new npc is just some clicks away. Remember to set the nametag for your token accordingly and make sure your players can see the name tag!

| − | Bonus points if you remove every used token from the roll able table, so all your NPC's are unique.
