100 Ironsworn NPCs
A downloadable game
This is a table of 100 NPCs for use with Ironsworn, the fabulous RPG by Tomkin Press available for free at https://www.ironswornrpg.com/.
However, the characters are also suited for any Viking themed RPG. There might be some game mechanics that can be ignored.
I’ve found that coming up with interesting NPCs during my Ironsworn playthroughs is not easy. Some players/referees have an easier time but things often grind to a halt as I try to come up with an interesting character.
This is a guide. You may, of course, modify the characters as you wish. Helping the characters or forming a bond may get them to reveal information about the surroundings or your objective. I have decided to exclude that information as it would become repetitious.
Some of the NPCs might present you with a task; I find that the tasks should be troublesome unless you deem otherwise.
I hope you enjoy these characters.

This is awesome - It's just enough detail to be interesting while not being overly detailed to the point that it requires specific context.
I can see this being incredibly useful for GMs too.
Appendix A being used to hide secrets from the solo player is also ingenious. You did a fantastic job with this - Definitely saving it for my upcoming campaign!
Thanks man! You have awesome stuff on your site too!
