This is a 10/10 tool for keeping track of NPCs

Totally unfair for this awesome app to have 4.3 stars. The artwork is fantastic, creating multiple characters is super easy and customizable, and you can even insert your own picture if you don’t like the artwork for some reason.

Because I have used this app frequently for years, I have a couple of gripes. I bought all the character packs and am more than willing to pay for more, so artist PLEASE keep drawing more 👏 Also, there are so few options for jobs for the NPCs, would love to see more occupations. (Like King and Advisor and Guild member)

I love this sooo much

As a brand new D&D player AND a brand new DM, this app has been invaluable to my character creation. I have been able to make a couple dozen NPCs for my starting town already, and I swear I could do this all day. I ended up buying all the character packs. They’re so reasonably priced and add so much to this! The only thing I would prefer is maybe more details like race for each NPC, or basic stats you could randomly roll for and add. And a landscape orientation! I like using my iPad, and it’s weird for me to put it in portrait mode and use my keyboard at the same time. But none of these are complaints, just suggestions. This is a great app to have!!

Needs Support

I love this app dearly, but it needs new packs! Haven’t seen an update in years!

Love this app!

This app can really help you create some amazing NPCs. Especially once you unlock the paid features. The only problem I can see is that I cannot export the info as a pdf or export it at all really. Just a simple image can be saved.

This app is very useful!

This app has created NPC’s for me on the fly and made my campaigns feel more alive. I do wish there was a feature to create your own “jobs” for labeling. Also it would be nice to save photos you want to reuse within the app. Also a feature to filter what race you would like while randomly generating NPC’s, but that is all stuff that would be nice but the app as is definitely worth the download. Especially if you’re new to DM’ing.
