I had a DM who did something similar. We all had to describe five NPCs that were important to our characters: two friends or family members, two enemies or rivals, and one fate-bonded character who could be friend or foe.

In addition to the RP possiblities, it also gave the DM a ready supply of NPCs to populate the setting.
