Extension summary

A random NPC generator created by Power Word Spill for TTRPGs, or any scenario where you need help coming up with character details! The extension has a variety of customization options so you can output exactly what you're looking for.

You can generate a full NPC, or regenerate individual parts until you find exactly what you're looking for. For example, if like everything except the name, just click the name and it will generate a new one!

You can enable or disable each part of the generator, and add in custom data in the options page that can either be mixed in with the default data, or used on its own.

Very handy generator with the freedom to remove what you don't need and add in your own custom descriptors/names/voice types. Personally don't use the pitch changes as much (Perhaps a failing on my part), but the ability to take those out of the generation and insert my own style of noting voices was a wonderful touch.

This generator hits the sweet spot for me. Just enough detail to run with, but not so much that it slows me down. I love the prompts for the voice and style of speech. I've tried lots of other NPC generators, even built a few of my own, but I think this is my favorite.
