Know what would be really nice, is when you buy an adventure and use the maps and such, it would be nice if you could also place tokens for NPC's as well as the characters in your campaign. This would save having to create character sheets for them, they're just part of the "package" you get.

NPCs are not intended to be created using the same rules as PCs, but instead to be represented with stat blocks like monsters. In fact, many of the official NOCs from the adventures are already in the system as monsters. Have you checked for them?
I have not but I will. I was just thinking that as I’m adding tokens to the maps for Dragon of Icespire Peak, it would be good to add a couple of the NPCs with whom the characters interact. I’ll go check out the monsters. Thanks for the tip.
Ok I finally had some time to take a look at this. It’s close. So characters that have stat sheets (for example Falcon the Hunter) do indeed appear as monster tokens which is great. However, other NPCs included in the adventure do not (for example, big al kalazorn). it would be nice to show him in the bottom of the butterskull ranch rather than create some sort of character for him. This is the kind of thing I’m thinking. Any NPC in an adventure, should have tokens in dndbeyond.

Upvote for adventure NPCs to be available especially to use with Maps. Out of the Abyss slave NPCs are a must for that adventure with Maps. Thanks!
