Is there a way to find out who killed a player/npc?

Not an in-built ROBLOX, no.

But, you can easily create your own by putting this into your weapon script:

bullet.Touched:connect(function(hit) -- unimportant (Lines 1,2,7,8)
	if hit.Parent.Humanoid then -- important vv
		local tag = Instance.new("StringValue",hit.Parent.Humanoid) -- creates new value
		tag.Name = "creator" -- sets the name
		tag.Value = player.Name -- sets it to the name of the killer
		game.Debris:AddItem(tag,5) -- removes tag after 5 seconds
	end ------------------------- important ^^
end)

Then, when a player dies, it says who killed them (script in the NPC/Character model):

local human = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
human.Died:connect(function()
	local tag = human.Parent:FindFirstChild("creator)
	if tag then
		print(human.Parent.Name.. " was killed by " ..tag.Value) -- prints who died and who caused it
	end
end)

Hope I helped :)
