Sharing NPCs without access to the character sheet?

Hi, I'm fairly new at this and I'm trying to get stuff to work the way I want it to :) One thing I'd like to see is an option for sharing an NPCs Bio and allowing it to be editable by the players, without also sharing the character sheet. Is that an option? I'd like to allow them to keep notes of characters right inside roll20, but I do not want to expose the NPCs character sheet. I have not found a way to do this cleanly. Is it possible?

Don't think that's possible. One workaround would be to create a duplicates character sheet that only contains to portrait and no stats, which would enable them to have eidt the Bio section without learning any stats.
You could create a handout for the NPC, make it editable by PC’s, link it on the NPC bio and then archive it to avoid clutter.  Archived handouts are accessible by link and remain editable.
Actually, just have the handouts for these people in a separate folder and closing the folder would be good enough. I only need to add the name and image, indeed, and they would be able to edit in everything else. Thanks for the suggestions! Still, my 2c, it would be nice if it was possible to do it with just a single NPC resource.
