Graveyard Keeper 2 NPC Finder
Find where an NPC can appear, see how quests affect their location, and work out why they may be missing.
A recorded position is not an address. The game moves people with the story, so this page reports each place with the state it belongs to, and says what the data does not prove instead of guessing.
14 NPCs · 84 quests that involve them · 6 named places
Two ways in
Search the person, or search the quest you are stuck on. A quest answer names the NPCs the game involves in it.

Where the game records Herbert
One row per place, with the condition it belongs to. A place the world map names is a place you can walk to; an interior is only as specific as the game data is.
Confirmed means the quest itself starts the scene the position was recorded in; possible means the scene names the quest without starting it.

6 of these 9 positions are recorded outside those quests.
The places below are grouped by the state the game records them in. An empty answer for your state means the data records nothing for it.
Why can't I find Herbert?
Only reasons the game data records, each marked by how strong the evidence is.
- Confirmed
Every recorded position belongs to a story state, so no position is always right: which one applies depends on how far the story has moved.
- Confirmed
The game switches interaction with this NPC off when A Good Example is the Best Sermon finishes. If they cannot be talked to, this is the recorded reason.
- Confirmed
The game records positions in scenes that First... Sludge? · A Good Example is the Best Sermon · Swords and Bell play. Outside those scenes the game places them elsewhere or not at all.
- Confirmed
6 of the 15 recorded positions sit outside every quest scene the data can tie them to, so they cannot be tied to a step.
- Confirmed
6 of the 15 recorded positions are inside interiors, which the world map does not draw.
The game data records no later switch that turns this NPC back on, so this page states the switch and nothing about when it ends.
