Today, we take a look at the very interesting topic of NPC AI. Creating unique and engaging NPC's for your roleplaying games can be difficult and time consuming and figuring out how they react to certain situations on the fly adds extra stress! But creating NPC's with artificial intelligence - making your NPC's self-operating, can certainly go a long way in helping you to create encounters in your RPG's, as well as assist in any improvisation needed in the game. So, when you are planning your next DnD adventure or Call of Cthulhu campaign, applying these principles will make your life as the GM so much easier, and your adventures more interesting.
