How To Identify Quest Giver NPCs in Prospecting?

Merchants, traders, blacksmiths, alchemist, and random NPCs that only waste your time - there are all sorts of NPCs roaming around on the various locations in Prospecting. However, the quest giver NPCs can be identified by the green question mark floating over their head.

The green question mark also acts as a sign of more quests. So, if you complete a quest from any NPC and the green question mark still remains over their head, that means the NPC has more quests that you can complete for more rewards.
