QuestLines Denizens

Bring your Hytale world to life with fully customizable, native NPCs — no third-party NPC plugins required.

Denizens is a complete NPC management suite built entirely on Hytale's native engine. Create, customize, and control living NPCs that wander your towns, guard your settlements, work your farms, and interact with your players.

Whether you need a simple town resident, a patrolling guard, a hardworking lumberjack, or a fully featured quest-giver, Denizens provides everything through an intuitive in-game editor and a single command system.
