Familiar Faces NPCs provide multiple functions. As recurring NPCs, they offer unique transaction opportunities for players on shore leave. As integrated members of their community, they offer interesting opportunities and introductions. As crews may often die off and reset during your campaigns, they offer a familiar face the crew might have heard of before their new journey begins.

"Wow, this is insanely aesthetic." - Greenspore [Publisher, Warden]

"The hooks aspect is great...Overall I think it's a really fun package. The art and the characters are really rich...I'd love to give my players a reason to start throwing coins into weird parts of the game." - Christian Sorrell (MeatCastle Gameware) [Publisher, Warden]
