Characters and Beings

Characters and Beings in Eldahar's Universe can be split into two types.

Player Characters (PC's) - Those played by a single person from early childhood memories to sometimes (albeit rarely) old age and retirement. Player characters are certainly a focal point of any campaign or story but they are not the be all and end all of it. They may drive the story to a considerable degree but behind every great PC is at least one or more NPC's. (See below).

Non Playing Characters (NPC's) - Are every other character, being, monster or beast in the Multiverse, as portrayed by the Games Master (GM). In many campaigns and more rule oriented systems, NPC's are often treated as inferior to PC's and seen as purely there to drive plot. In Eldahar though, despite in some cases being true as any book, story or TV show needs characters to flesh things out, NPC's can and deserve to take on just as much life as PC's. They become integral parts of the experience, good friends, companions and sometimes lovers. So much so that when a beloved NPC dies it can be quite devastating to all concerned and when an NPC steps up in a big way, they can end wind up legends.
