From the author

Excerpt from the author's description on CurseForge

Uses various methods to scan your surroundings for rare or specified NPCs.

NPCScan helps you find NPCs by scanning nameplates, minimap vignettes, and mouseover targets, with an optional dynamic targeting keybinding. Once an NPC is found by one of these methods, an on screen alert is displayed and an audio alert is played.
