Neopronouns would be great. Ze/hir/hir for sure. I know this one is controversial, but maybe consider... it. It/it/its. If you're unsure about usability of NB words, there's an annual nb survey (gendercensusdotcom) you can check the results of. As for binary pronoun NPCs, maybe refer to them as nb in narration. "There's that enby I know, he's great." Rip off the bandaid. No celebration, but clearly stated. Also there are honorifics like Ind. (individual) or Mx. "There's Ind. Smith, she's great."
I’ve known people who use it, I’ve never seen it as particularly controversial. I get where each side is coming from, I’m mostly inclined to just do what people tell me you know? And generally I go for “person”, I don’t like the word enby. I don’t know why? I think it’s one of those. It doesn’t look like a word that refers to anything to me. I don’t mind when people use it for themselves but like I’ve always been pretty :/ about it, as evidenced by the time I’ve taken to type out NB people all day lol. Honorifics is an interesting way to go for sure though, I’ll keep that one in mind.
