Unhinged Character Creation - 50 copy-paste prompts for chaotic but usable NPCs in stories, RPGs, and worldbuilding

Unhinged NPCs. Usable chaos. 50 prompts for writers and GMs.

This is an NPC prompt lab for anyone who wants their worlds full of weird, vivid people instead of cardboard side characters.

This read-only PDF gives you 50 structured prompts across five sections—Everyday Oddballs, Social Grenades & Low-Stakes Menaces, Esoteric Obsessions Department, Fantasy & Supernatural Wreckers, and Sci-Fi & Cosmic Glitch Beings. Each prompt is designed to be copy–paste ready for AI or fast brainstorming, so you can spin up chaotic but usable NPCs in minutes.

Use it if you’re:

- A TTRPG GM who needs background weirdos, recurring rivals, or surprise agents of chaos.

- A writer who wants strange side characters, story seeds, or new protagonists.

- A worldbuilder who enjoys populating cities, stations, and realms with memorable faces.

What makes it different:

- Focused concept: “unhinged but usable” NPCs—chaotic enough to be fun, grounded enough to actually run.

- Structured prompts with clear guidance and a “Use this when…” line under each entry.

- Read-only layout with lots of whitespace and clear headings, built for quick scanning.

- Works across genres: modern, fantasy, sci-fi, horror, surreal, and more.

How to use:

- Open the PDF and pick a category that matches the mood or setting.

- Grab a prompt, plug in your details (system, genre, tone), and paste it into AI or your notes.

- Remix prompts by changing tiers (background vs supporting vs main character) to get more mileage out of the pack.

If you want instantly usable NPCs that feel like they could derail a scene in interesting ways—without derailing your whole campaign or story—this pack is built for you.
