E175 - Port-FOE-lios - NPC: Now Presenting Combat

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast takes a sidestep to finally address the most common kind of enemy in Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition: the humanoid NPC.  Sometimes they betray, sometimes they get betrayed.  Sometimes they’re lethal, and some they’re regretful.  Everyone has run into them at one point or another, but the panel of Dungeon Masters is going to try to break down new and interesting ways to go about using them.  This episode marks the first half of the conversation, but it’s important to know the broad strokes before you dive headlong into the nitty gritty details.
