Characters (NPCs) plays a vital role in ‘White Box: Eastern Adventures’; it is
often through the Player Characters (PCs) interactions and encounters with NPCs
that plots are reveals, adventuring goals are established, and memorable role-playing
experiences are created. The PCs will encounter different types of NPCs through
the course of adventuring; some NPCs will be simple peasants, while others will
be seasoned adventurers, like the PCs themselves. Thus, I created the NPC Adventurer Generator
as a tool that will give Referees the ability to quickly generate batches of
NPC Adventurers to keep on-hand when situations arise when the statistics and
descriptions of NPCs are needed for the adventure.
There
are four character classes in ‘White Box: Eastern Adventurers’, which parallels
the four core classes of the early versions of the ‘World’s Most Famous Role-Playing
System’. The classes are: the Bushi (fighter),
the Sohei (cleric), the Ninja (thief) and the Shugenja (magic-user). Each class has their own unique set of
abilities; thus, there are unique character sheets for each of the classes.

A
total of 8 drop-down menus are available for customizing the randomly generated
NPCs to fit the needs of the campaign.
‘White
