An NPC is a Non-Player Character. It is an entity with some form of AI that may be able to move around the map, attack with weapons, etc., that is not directly controlled by the player. Examples include Combine soldiers in 
Half-Life 2 and hostages in 
Counter-Strike: Source.
NPCs are sometimes referred to as monsters (especially in 
Half-Life), a terminology inherited from 
Quake.
