I really wish this had a template for NPC templates. I'm not as adept at word and I've spent hours trying to get one setup without success.

Sorry you’ve been having trouble! I recommend trying the following (enabling “Show/Hide Paragraph Marks” will help you see what’s being selected):

  1. Copy/paste the entirety of the NPC Class page.
  2. Delete the text boxes with the Size and Role icons.
  3. Highlight all the text starting immediately to the left of “Tier 1” all the way to just to the left of “Tactics”.
  4. Press delete; confirm whether or not this successfully removes the stats while preserving the column formatting.
  5. Adjust headings, column breaks, and features as you like.

This will result in a page that has a 1-column, centered “NPC Class” title and subsequent flavor text, followed by a 2-column layout for the template’s base and optional features. If you want the entire entry to be two columns instead, then additionally do the following:

  1. Change the flavor text’s style from “Mech Flavor Text” to simply “Flavor Text” (you can copy/paste the style from page 5).
  2. Place your typing cursor at the end of the flavor text. Press the Delete key (Fn + Backspace on Mac) once or twice and it should delete the section break, turning the entire page into two columns.

Hopefully this will help you set up an NPC template layout!
