I think it would be handy to have a list of all of the "offical" HeroQuest NPCs along with their stats, spells and what quest they originally appeared in for use in fan made quests. It could also include all other characters that are mentioned in the rule book and quest notes.

Hmmm, maybe this is something I could work on :geek:

Yeah, that kind of freaked me out for a second :o

I edited my original post so it doesn't look I'm searching for the same thread I am curretnly posting in :oops:

I'm thinking this could be expanded to a list of all HeroQuest characters with as much bio as is available from the official material (citing the source) along with stats and spells for those that actually appear in the game. I have all of the US expansions and the three HeroQuest novels (ugh, do I have to read them now?) and I've printed just about everything else. I didn't realize until now that some of the NPCs have different names in the UK versions.

I think this would be a handy resource for making quests that include characters that are already part of the HeroQuest world.

Note that the list is strictly characters who is represented by an actual mini ingame. Thus many characters are omitted like Mentor, Morcar and the guide who abandons you.

Oh no! Have I failed?

Guess I went over the US expansions a little fast.

I'm thinking of a resource that lists only named characters who could make an appearance in a new quest or be woven into the storyline. People seem to like to do this, as evidenced by the number of Sir Ragnar quests. It's also handy for people who don't want to have to create new characters and names from scratch and/or like their quests to tie into the official ones somehow.

Sounds like a good idea. I did start a list like this a few weeks ago that included,
  • which quest pack the character appeared in
  • if the character was still alive
  • if they fought for chaos, the empire, or neither
Kenaron was probably the most interesting. You can find him in the conclusion to Kellar's Keep.

I agree, and I think he would be a good character for a quest. He was defeated by Zargon himself, and this event was worded ambiguously enough to allow for the possibility that he was wounded and captured rather than killed.
