Sharing NPC in 7e
There is a difference between 7e and 6e when it comes to sharing NPCs. 6e only shares the Appear tab (which is the preferred method I believe), while 7e shares the entire NPC, both tabs and stats and everything (hard to keep secrets from players that way). Zacchaeus seems to think that there is a bug in this, but cannot confirm that. I hope there is because I need an NPC to have a public face and a private face, and the 6e way seems to achieve that.

I've used the fact that the whole sheet is shared as a handy feature for in-game 'accidents' where a player needs to take over the character. When it comes to sharing the NPC artwork, I will just share the NPCs picture.

Thanks Ian, the dragging NPC records to the Characters panel does work but has an issue with skills. In all these years I never knew you could do that.
It will take whatever skill your NPC has, then adds that skills base value to it. An example would be Persuade which my NPC has 72% in that skill. The base value is 10% for Persuade, so when the NPC is converted the skill ends up at 82%.

Could I make a request please Ian? Would it be possible to get the Dodge value from the NPC Weapon section mapped to the Dodge Skill. Likewise, can we have Unarmed mapped to Fighting (Brawl).
I also noticed the Personal Description box disappeared on converted NPC players. Could that field be populated with the text box content from the NPC Appearance tab?
