All survivors in Enshrouded: Craftspeople, assistants, and villagers

These NPCs will greatly help you in your journey, but you need to first locate and save them.

Enshrouded is all about rekindling the flame of civilization. And to do that, you’re going to need to save all the survivors of the world and invite them to stay at your base.

But don’t think it’s all work and no reward; these NPCs offer new crafting recipes, quests, and more. The game’s survivors are split into three categories: craftspeople, assistants, and villagers. If you speak to craftspeople and assistants, you can build their unique items. Villagers, on the other hand, won’t offer new recipes, but they can give you new quests and dialogue options.

Here are all the NPCs in Enshrouded, including every craftsperson, assistant, and villager.

All NPCs in Enshrouded

Every craftsperson and where to find them

Craftspeople in Enshrouded are some of the earliest NPCs available to unlock, and I highly recommend you do so—especially if you’re just getting started. Not only are they part of your first few quests, they also grant you the ability to create invaluable items, like the Forge and the Loom. Oswald Anders, the Blacksmith, is the first craftsperson you’re able to save, and with his help, you can craft higher-tier armor and weapons if you build him a blacksmithing shop.

Every assistant and where to find them

Assistants are very similar to craftspeople in that they allow you to craft similar recipes. By speaking to the craftspeople, you’ll unlock quests that show you the location of the assistants and allow you to unlock them. There are five total assistants, one for each of the main craftspeople.

Every villager and where to find them

Villagers are the last NPCs you’ll unlock after you’ve already saved each craftsperson and their assistant. There are 10 villagers to rescue across the map, as seen in our table below.

How to add a survivor to your base

Once you’ve saved a survivor, you can summon them to one of your bases in Enshrouded by using the Summoning Staff. You’ll have to attune the staff to whichever NPC you’d like to have on your base and then press the interact/attack key to place them.

Each NPC will need a bed assigned to them, which you can do with the same Summoning Staff. Simply approach an unclaimed bed and follow the prompt on the screen to assign a survivor. Whichever NPC you have your staff attuned to will then claim the bed.
