So, if you're anything like me, you're not fond of always finding your antagonist or your NPC's in the same place Every. Single. Time. in youe table top RPG's. This isn't an MMORPG, this is D&D/Traveller/Call of Cthulhu/ GURPS etc. So how do we as game masters make the world that we created for our players to interact with not be a snooze fest?

Antagonists are prominent in our RPG games. Is the big bad evil guy (BBEG) hanging out in his lair? Probably. Most modules are written for a BBEG to hang out and wait for the players, just like every video game you've played. In Curse of Strahd, Strahd MOVES AROUND and that's why I like it so much (check our videos on that). A BBEG walking in circles in his/her lair isn;t always fun, nor is it realistic.

Same with NPC's. Does your favorite store IRL close at 10 or 11 PM? The shop keepers need to sleep too! Unlike Runescape or WoW, we make have believable NPC movement and agendas that aren;t just "go fetch me this rat pelt, I'll be here in a day, or in 30 days, makes no difference". W discuss how to better run an NPC and an antagonist and make your RPG world more believable!
