Book Beggar - Unique NPC?

[Toki]

Book seller beggar was one of the first encounters on the road for me.
I decided to buy his book and then assassinated him, or something. (You can't get your book money back by slaying them, FYI.)

Does he respawn? Anyone know? I've not seen him in like 20 hours.
Or am I now just fudged?


If he is unique, someone should probably make a mod that makes such NPC's respawn (and maybe also adds more encounter types, hah).


UPDATE: After 35 hours, he spawned again. So yeah, they aren't perma-dead.

I've seen like 3 or 4 book beggars in 60h and one with a savior schnapps, they are extremely rare.
I'm not sure any of those npcs is unique though, at least the faint-hearted knight keeps respawning over and over again and I killed him so often it's not even fun anymore.

That's great to hear!
If faint-hearted can respawn, why couldn't book beggar.
Have you ever killed the honorable combat dude? Who wants to bet armor for 250 gold?
I've not. But I keep knocking him unconscious and looting everything he has and leaving him naked. And he thinks he won the fight.

I'm not sure, haven't seen him in a while. If I remember it correctly the first time I knocked him out, the second time I took the bet for the armor but failed. I may have killed him, bc I'm.. errr I mean Henry is a bad loser.
(But that doesn't mean he's gone forever. For example I haven't encountered the mercenary in my current 60h+ playthrough at all, only one time on my first one. It's pure RNG I guess)

Henry's a traumatized murderhobo who does what he needs to keep from spiraling into utter insanity. :c

I convinced the faint-hearted knight to go get laid and I haven't seen him since. I keep encountering that wayfaring knight though.

For me, I told him to go bang and he showed up later. So you might still see him again.
