We have Jerry. Jerry is a little fella who just shows up. Canonically it is always the same Jerry. He had his existence shattered and scattered across all planes and time lines. He is never hostile and just wants to live his life. He just wants to get home to his kids.

My players finding their family, friends, and enemies scattered around the map in a different campaign is always rewarding to watch. I think it's a great way to show their past efforts still influencing the world even when it's 'years' later

My campaign has Ben. Every campaign, Ben. He canonically works everywhere and is trying to pay off his student debt

My Homebrew setting is comprised of 4 dead campaign worlds being forced upon a 5th world by a cataclysmic event that the 5th world created. So there's *plenty* of reused NPCs

I do this with an NPC named Lemon, they appear as the same race but opposite gender of whomever they are talking to, they go around collecting stories of adventures. thing is they are actually the King in Yellow collecting stories for a plan of theirs.

All of our campaigns at the table are set in the same world just hundreds of years apart in different regions of the map so this happens a lot actually. Not to mention all of the filler NPCs being named Phil.

my partner likes to bring in his old pc (and his simulacrum) into campaigns as travelling shop keeps! super convenient to give players magic items (and fun trinkets) at the right level without forcing them into town

In a campaign I dm, I have a photo of “forgotten” heroes that are all the PCs from the first campaign I was a player in. On the back are the words “Keep Moving Forward”

I use an elf in our campaigns to connect them all into the same timeline. He’s actually the biggest bad and will soon reveal himself. All my players are about to control all 3 of their characters. They’ll need it.

I use my same DND character for everything. he's a gag character named Bones Malone. he just gets isekai'd. every universe has a Papa's Pastaria (yes like the game, it's where he works) so there's an in universe excuse for why he's gone for when I can't be in he session

we have an NPC named Baxter with an australian accent who runs a traveling pawn shop. We’ve decided Baxter is an multidimensional being. Baxter will be in every campaign my group ever runs.

Jose, Catholicized :
The Pokémon campaign I've been in the past few months just got permanently canceled this week, but I DM my own Pokémon campaign and one of my players is someone I played the other campaign with, so I'm genuinely thinking about bringing our characters over as NPCs and I'm excited to see him freak out lol

we have Saafi, a little calico cat mage who appears in all worlds and timelines. she's been a khajit in oblivion, a fortune teller in barovia, a jedi in a star wars campaign. (she is based on the cat in my pfp.) Every time one of my friends takes a turn dming, you can bet it won't be long until Saafi appears
