On this week's episode of Threat Dice: Non-Player Characters. The players of a tabletop RPG portray a tiny slice of the people that populate a fictional world. All the rest of them belong to the GM. But how do we create them? How do we make them feel real? How can we inspire sympathy in fictional characters, to the end of guiding and inspiring the players?
All that, and more, in this week's discussion!

Reyah isn't sure that Aerus is fully of sound mind on this one, but he's in command, so she goes along. She only remembers that the ruins they're heading for made her feel deeply uneasy, the last time they were there. Both the terrain and weather are against them--how will our intrepid heroes fare in the trek across the wilds, reluctantly toward their destination?
