I have just started planning my first return to Athas since 1992! Planning on using the Pathfinder rules. But while in 1992 I had lots of time on my hands, todays situation is vastly different. Therefore I am looking for ways of saving time. And in both 3.5 and Pathfinder I find the most timeconsuming part being making NPCs, especially at higher levels.
So my questions is; anybody know of resources where I can find pre-made NPCs? Especially from the more exotic races and classes uniqe to Dark Sun.
There are a lot of sample NPCs (probably from the books) in Dark Sun 3 on the Athas.org product page. Also, there is a supplement called villages of the wastes with a number of pre-made NPC’s and, well, villages. However, their stats are drawn up according to second edition rules rather than 3.5 like the Dark Sun 3.
Dark Sun 3 also has 3 new character classes unique to Dark Sun (templar, gladiator, and psionic adept if I remember correctly), and plenty of adaptations for the other character classes. Likewise, it has re-writes of pre-existing races and the new race Pterran (well, new to the edition, anyways).
Terrors of Athas is a good resource for 3.5 athasian monsters, and even has a list of monsters from other texts that would work in the setting.
Thank you ProfessoZik!
Many very good NPCs and monsters there. The time it takes to make NPCs in the newer editions is daunting, especially at higher levels. Would much rather spend time making the story.
There are a few adventueres there too. Know where I can find more?
