A couple of scared NPC's
People of the Land (大地人) is the term used to describe the Non-Player Characters or NPCs (ノンプレイヤーキャラクター) in Elder Tale. They are artificial intelligence and can be found in cities and safe zones.
Purposes
People of the Land can be utilized for a number of things including the purchase of food, items, clothing, and can be spoken to for quests. What forms these types of quests take are up to assumption, but escort and monster hunting quests appear to be present.[1]
Following the apocalypse, the number of People of the Land increased by five or ten-fold, but they still remained weak compared to players, and if they chose, player could use their superior strength to take their belongings or their lives.[2]
Notes
After the Apocalypse, Shiro notes that the NPCs in Elder Tale are capable of having names, personalities, memories, and emotions, and are able to die permanently. He posits that this actually makes them more human than the players in Elder Tale.[3]
