Every NPC here comes with what a 5e table actually asks for mid-session: a name you can say out loud, an appearance you can give in one line, something they want, and a secret worth prying out. The statted ones carry AC, hit points, ability scores and a challenge rating, so when the conversation turns into a fight you can roll initiative without stopping to build anything. Take one whole, or keep the hook and hang it on someone your players already know.
