Has anyone thought of compiling a library of NPC/PC por files for those of us who do homebrews?

Isn't the various Codex books available for use with the Encounter Library?

The official codexes do provide a set of limited NPCs, but if we could create a community repository of them there is significant potential there too.

I assume you mean additional NPCs that aren't available through the standard Codexes?

The Community Pack generally won't duplicate any information that can be purchased from LWD.

Correct, nothing that already that exists in the NPC codex's,, but rather a community created NPC index. Im not looking to get it added to the Community Pack since I know Shadow already has a full plate. Rather I was thinking of creating something new for the community. If we could get people to throw in named PC/NPCs with a back story and a standard POR file, we could then aggregate them as a library resource for GMs.

I think this would be a great idea. However, we would need a format that people could easily see what sources were required...

This wouldn't run against LWD copyright policies, would it?

I do a massive number, but use most of the sources I have.
And the sources my players choose to use.

And my players all power game to a large degree, so I do the same with the NPCs, to give them a challenge.

My NPCs have Spheres of Power, Spheres of Might, Champion of the Spheres, Ultimate Psionics, Path of War (and PoW: Expanded) and some 3pp stuff that has HL files.

The group is level twelve.
One of the NPCs that they fought in yesterday's sessions had 53 AC.
Not sure if my NPCs are good for other's games or not.
But I've got several hundred, probably.

My main goal was to stick to non-3pp materials, to maximize usage.
