NPCs

Generic NPCs, sorted by Refresh Cost and associated Power Level

In addition to the power levels used in the book, the following are also used:

Hydrophobe (10 skill points, 2 refresh, skill cap good) You're kind of a loser. You have no significance to the supernatural world and little to the mundane one.

On The Beach (15 skill points, 4 refresh, skill cap good) You're just some guy. You probably know nothing about the supernatural world and you're not a big shot in the mundane one either. Joe Average level.

Snorkeling (40 skill points, 13 refresh, skill cap superb) You're pretty damn powerful. Most cities don't have more than one or two guys at this level. I'm considering increasing the skill cap to fantastic for this level.

Scuba Diving (45 skill points, 17 refresh, skill cap fantastic) You're one of the best in the world at what you do. Faerie Queens, Vampire Kings, and Senior Council members know who you are.

In A Submarine (50 skill points, 21 refresh, skill cap fantastic) You are a being of global significance. You have the power to star in legends, change the course of world events, or defeat a small army singlehandedly.

Deep One (65 skill points, 38 refresh, skill cap epic) You are a supernatural heavyweight. This is the level of Senior Council members, legendary monsters, the leaders of Vampire Courts, and other plot devices.
