If your character has any NPCs of note associated with them, please reply to this thread listing them off. This is completely optional, but other players often find it helpful. Please only make one reply per character - edit your post as needed to update your list. Please also only include NPCs that make repeat appearances in your threads, not the random ones you make up on the fly and never see again.
How you list them is totally up to you, but the forms below are provided as a courtesy so that you don't need to figure that out if you don't want to. But however you list them, please indicate which of these three different types each one is:
It's worth noting, as a matter of roleplayer etiquette, that the first two types of NPCs are usually considered to be extensions of the character associated with them, so you shouldn't use those belonging to someone else unless you know that they're cool with it. Those in the third category are more flexible, but unless your character is kidnapping them whether the other person likes it or not, it's still nice to ask.
It's also worth noting that most players would not only be happy but delighted if someone wanted to make an OC out of any of the NPCs listed here if you see one that speaks to you that much. That's not always the case, however, so you should ask them first. Any canon characters who end up on this list do not require permission, though you might want to talk to the player who has them listed if you're going to apply for them.

Just use whichever of the above seems most appropriate.

- Important NPCs - Those that are more fully fleshed out and actually have things like backstories or personalities, corresponding to those that are 4 points each on the tracker.
- Less Important NPCs - Those that are more in the background, corresponding to those that are part of the various levels of faceless hordes you can buy on the tracker.
- Other NPCs - Any NPCs that don't really count as a minion/assistant/follower/etc. but who tend to show up around your character enough to be of note. NPCs who would feel obligated to follow your character's orders do not belong in this category.
