A document listing all NPCs in the world of Realmz so far. Some of you might find it useful. It can be since these NPCs can't be viewed at any time except when you face them, and if you forget to check them out then, you won't have a chance to do so later. My comment sometimes provide you with help on how to kill or handle them, but most of the time it won't. Not only strict non-bestiary NPCs are listed, some that are in the bestiary are also listed due to their special character or importance.
Ok, below is an example of how I have listed the NPCs.
Equipment: Volted Chain +3, Helm of Heroism +2, Gloves of Regeneration +1, Combat Boots, Shield of Shields +4, Mace of Destruction +3 (max 6 for any creature)
Comment: Stark is probably one of the greatest paladins that ever existed. He is god-like in power and no evil creatures has withstood him in his battle for the good in Realmz.
My Comment: Stark is very strong and will be most helpful to any party lucky enough to meet him, as long as they do not attack him. He has so far been able to squish most opponents without any help from others. Only in DtN had he help, and then only from an enchanter.
Well, hope that is legible and clear. My example is of course a character you won't meet in the world of Realmz so far. The abbreviations I have used are the standard ones: CoB for City of Bywater, PtP for Prelude to Pestilence, AoGM for Assault on Giant Mountain, CitC for Castle in the Clouds and DtN for Destroy the Necronomicon. I have also used SS to indicate that an item is Scenario Specific. The comment is the one submitted with the bestiary window, my comment is my own comment on the NPC.

If you are a pirate of Realmz, this doc will notice that and log it. The next time you connect to the Internet, it will send this information to me. I will then have to travel to wherever you live just to take care of your piracy and crush your knee caps, so please spare me all these journeys and register Realmz if you haven't done so already. Tim Phillips, author of Realmz, has worked extremely hard so that we can play this excellent game. Don't force him to stop developing it.
