-:''MFor a complete list of NPC names, see [[NPC names]].''
-An '''NPC''' ('''N'''on-'''P'''layer '''C'''haracter) is a friendly automated character that provides some service to players. Players can utilize NPCs by standing near them and using the {{key|open}} button on them. Most NPCs are vendors, selling [[items]] to players in exchange for [[coins]], and can be sold items by a player in order to obtain coins. Some NPCs also perform other functions.
+== Licensing ==
-Most NPCs are "[[Town]]" NPCs, appearing after various milestones are achieved in game advancement (details below). They move into structures the player must generally build, known as [[House]]s, which are generally required for Town NPCs to remain available.
+{{License Terraria}}
-Town NPCs that have moved into Houses reduce [[enemy]] spawn rates in the area, an effect that increases the more of them are present. With four or more Town NPCs in close proximity, enemies generally stop spawning on or near the visible screen altogether. Players tend to utilize this effect by building large structures ("Towns" or "[[Guide:Base|Base]]s") with several integrated Houses, to serve as their safe haven. However, these reductions are usually overridden by the spawning rules of special [[Events]] such as the [[Blood Moon]], putting the player- and their NPC allies- once again at risk of attack by monsters.
-Town NPCs generally walk around during the day, and remain still in their assigned Houses at night. They have limited [[health]] and can take damage from enemies, [[Trap]]s, or [[Lava]], and can die, though they will not drown in water and will respawn following a delay as long as a suitable vacant House is still available. NPCs cannot be attacked by players (outside of special [[Voodoo Doll]] accessories or [[Rotten Egg]]s), and their health regenerates over time.
-There are currently 21 Town NPCs, 6 of them only appearing in Hardmode. An additional 2 NPCs can be encountered that don't move into Houses.
-== Housing ==
-Town NPCs require a suitable, vacant [[House]]. A House is a confined room enclosed by a frame of [[block]]s, with a [[Door]], background [[Walls]], and two [[furniture]] items. Certain types of furniture are required, as well as certain room dimensions (see [[House]] for details). Houses must not be located near [[Corruption]] or [[Crimson]], and if those spread too close to an occupied House, the NPC living there may move out.
-Town NPCs' home assignments can be re-arranged using [[NPC Flag]]s from the [[Housing Menu]], where you can also check whether a room is a suitable House.
-The [[Guide]] and [[Old Man]] are unique in that they always spawn upon creating a world. The Guide will also move into the first [[House]] you build. If he dies, he will need a proper House to respawn. The Old Man does not move into a House, but always appears near the [[Dungeon]]'s entrance, and respawns the following day if killed.
-If a House occupied by an NPC is damaged in a way that makes it invalid, the NPC will move out and walk around the area until a suitable House is restored. If killed, the NPC will respawn again whenever a new House becomes available.
-A house submerged in water remains valid housing for an NPC.
-== Buying and Selling ==
-Items can be bought simply by right-clicking an NPC and taking items from their inventory while their cost in coins is available in the player's inventory. Holding the right mouse button will allow the player to buy an item in bulk, so long as the item is stackable. The buy speed increases the longer the right-click button is held. Certain NPC's will sell [[Biome-specific items]] if their House is located within a specific biome.
-All NPC vendors can also be used to sell your unwanted or surplus items to gain coins, simply by placing your unwanted item(s) in their inventory. Items are always sold to vendors at one-fifth their purchase price. Not all items have a sell value (very common items such as [[Dirt]] or [[Wood]] have no value). Hovering over your item while the NPC's inventory is open will show its sell value. Should you change your mind about a sale, sold items can be taken back in exchange for the amount you sold them for, as long you haven't yet closed the NPC's inventory screen. This does '''not''' hold true for returning bought items, which must be sold back at their standard sell rate of one-fifth the purchase price.
-All NPC vendors buy and sell at the same price.
-You can decrease prices of some items if you use a [[Discount Card]], which is a rare drop from the Pirate Invasion.

-==Notes==
-* NPCs will take about 2 minutes to spawn after another NPC has spawned or dawn passes.
-* Bound NPCs found underground can be freed by talking to them, after which they will always respawn whenever a vacant house is available. Having an empty room ready for them when you anticipate finding one will mean you will have convenient access to them from your [[Town]] earlier on, though this is not required, and building a house later will still cause them to spawn at that time.
-* Unlike [[chest]]s and structures generated on world creation, bound NPCs spawn around the player's position on-the-fly, similar to [[enemy]] spawns. They are temporary, and can respawn again elsewhere if missed (see [[NPC spawning]]).
-* NPCs will not spawn during an active [[Event]] or at [[night]].
-* Male NPCs will teleport to a [[King Statue]] when you activate it, and similarly female NPCs will teleport to a [[Queen Statue]] when you activate it.
-* All NPCs have an Attack stat of 10, though they don't attack anything.
-* NPCs will teleport home during the [[night]] if the player(s) are away from both their home and the NPC itself. This can be useful for relocating them across the map without needing to escort them or to get them across terrain that would otherwise kill them (such as a lava moat).
-* {{mobile icon}} As the mobile version currently has no housing interface, it is not possible to assign NPCs to certain houses, therefore making it difficult to control which house each of them lives in.
