1920s NPC Generator

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The name's Ira Fleming, and I think you're just the people I've been lookin' for.

If there’s one thing any game master always needs, it’s a spare cache of NPCs. Sometimes these can be as shallow as a name and occupation but sometimes you want to go a little deeper. That’s where this publication comes in.

Inside you’ll find:

  • lists of first and last names (both pulled from the US Census lists for 1890 and 1900) 
  • a list of nicknames/mob names (largely inspired by real life mobsters from the 1920s and beyond)
  • a list of possible occupations (pulled from the 1920 US Census: Volume 4, Populations and Occupations publication available through the census.gov library)
  • numerous lists designed to give you a basic physical appearance and personality for any NPC you create

Looking for more 1920s content? Check out our lists of 100 Things to Find on Someone in the 1920s and 100 1920s Speakeasy Names

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
