Some people Im playing with decided to add something to this massive game we've got going, PNPCs, these are retired characters/merchant characters that dont adventure, but still contribute, here is the system: PNPC = playable non-playable character, works as a NPC but is roleplayed by a player and not the GM.
Any PC can become a PNPC but a player can have only one PNPC at a given time.
When a player decides to retire a PC and make it a PNPC the PNPC gets a level = 3 + PC’s level / 5 (round down)
To level up as a merchant you need an amout of gold not xp.
The table goes:
1- 3 gp
2- 9 gp
3- 27 gp
4- 81 gp
5- 243 gp
6- 729 gp
7- 2187 gp
8- 6561 gp
9- 19683 gp
The actual subclasses for Merchant PNPCs are:
Trader
Crafter
Service
Caster
By picking a subclass as your first and main subclass you get
Trader: Expertise in the persuasion skill
Crafter: One tool proficiency of your choice
Caster: 2 cantrips of your choice from any spell list.
