I bought a physical copy from Peregrine Coast Press, any chance of a pdf copy if I provide proof of purchase?
You bet - send me an email at hello@hurtleberry.net
Great resource. I make frequent use of it for the open table game I'm running.
This is one of the few GMing tools I keep on hand as a physical document when I'm running games. The character descriptions are delightfully evocative and it's so easy to glance through, find one, and toss that NPC out into the world. Nicely done!
This is great, I'm going to use it in my game tomorrow. I'd love to see similar companion volumes in the future!
Already used at the table to bring to life my party's hirelings! Fantastic product full of inspiration
