That module has been there for ages.  You should be able to find out who created it by looking in the git logs.

 From a quick code inspection, it looks like the CreateNPC method needs to be triggered to get anything to happen.  This 
is hooked up to the osNpcCreate() command (in the OSSL_Api.cs file).  You could try invoking this command via an 
in-world script - it looks like you'll need the uuid of an existing avatar to get going.  There are some other os 
commands there which appear to the NPC module (say, move, remove).

It's also very possible that this module doesn't work any more - I haven't heard of anybody trying to use it for a long 
time.  The only way to find out is to try it.
