The other NPC classes have a clear place in the game, while the poor old adept is some sort of strange mix of arcane and divine casting abilities. I use these archetypes to fix that. Apart from the notes below, these Adept Archetypes conform to the published class specification. text/html 2023-12-27T12:07:36+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://rp.baileymail.net/doku.php?id=pathfinder:npc_classes:arcane_adept_spell_list&rev=1703678856&do=diff Arcane Adepts Spell List Arcane adepts are restricted to spells that were in the original rules.

One thing is almost certain, they will have received specialist education and training, befitting their rank, somewhere. text/html 2026-04-05T13:40:08+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://rp.baileymail.net/doku.php?id=pathfinder:npc_classes:commoners&rev=1775396408&do=diff Commoners Overview Commoners are the normal people who have nothing really going for them. They don't have much of an education, and they get through life doing the basic work that a society without mechanization needs. They are the labourers, cleaners, shop workers, bar staff and assistants of the world. text/html 2026-04-05T13:40:08+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://rp.baileymail.net/doku.php?id=pathfinder:npc_classes:experts&rev=1775396408&do=diff Experts Experts are the most diverse of all the NPC classes. They are fully customisable, fairly well armed and have access to a large range of feats and traits. They don’t even need standard builds to make them work easily – you just give them the maximum points available for the skill they are supposed to have.

Instead, I use an overall of demographic of (roughly) 60% commoners, 30% other NPC classes and about 5-10% PC classes when I am world building. However, the proportions vary according to the area. text/html 2026-04-05T13:40:08+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://rp.baileymail.net/doku.php?id=pathfinder:npc_classes:warriors&rev=1775396408&do=diff Warrior Overview Warriors are the everyday muscle of most fantasy worlds, they fight the wars, guard the walls and police the streets. It is, perhaps, one of the easiest classes to get training for - cities always need new guards, armies always want replacement soldiers and every caravan needs protection. But that high turnover and easy access comes with higher risks, warriors have a much higher chance of being killed maimed or seriously injured during the course of their work, than any oth…
