Conclusion
It is a fun game. You need to know a bit about the gameplay and then you are good to go. This post was intended to give you a wholesome idea about NPCs of Terraria. Hope you benefited from it.
One more thing, you should be careful with your NPCs as they can die! Although they may return until only the next day. Also, NPCs can be killed en masse. Even that is not the end of the roads for the NPCs, but this time return is even more gradual. You must be on a lookout to prevent such a thing.
Hope you have fun in the Game:)..
