What is Bard's Gate: Personalities and Profiles?
In its original incarnation, Bard’s Gate from Frog God Games offered NPC stats reduced to just the essentials. In the Italian edition of that same volume — thanks to the Frog God team’s invaluable help (in particular, Edwin Nagy and Casey W. Christofferson) and the tireless work of Italo Iozzi — Kaizoku Press expanded those small snippets into full-fledged stat blocks.

This book is the result of that effort. It is designed for those who already own Bard’s Gate 5e and offers more details of the characters the heroes might meet. You can use this volume’s contents to populate cities and urban environments in any fantasy setting, not just Bard’s Gate. Guards, bouncers, nobles, thieves, rabid rats from the sewers, and other less-savory creatures are listed here for GMs looking to quickly create encounters without spending hours writing up stats.
This supplement for your dark urban fantasy campaign includes more than 300 fully-statted NPCs to help fill cities and urban environments in any fantasy setting in no time. Just drop these characters into your game and go. This book can be used on its own or to expand on information found in Bard’s Gate 5e (but that city accessory from Frog God Games is not required to use this book). You do have an opportunity to add Bard's Gate 5e PDF as an add-on.
