Guest Topic of the Week - An NPC is a gaming term, which stands for "Non-Playable Character." Simply, it is a character in a game that the player does not control. All dialogue and actions are preset and described by the DM or programmer, depending if it is a table-top or video game. An NPC does not think for itself, has limited manners of communicating and acting.
