100 Merchants to Encounter

For whatever reason, characters will often encounter merchants. They may need to offload some of their... acquisitions, buy some new needed items or get damaged things repaired. Some of the more specialised types of merchant also need equally specialised things to sell, or as components for what they are selling. Which is where adventurers can help, by hunting down this needed items. For a finder's fee. If the party is looking for a shop that the GM hasn't planned for, it can also be necessary to quickly create a new merchant.

100 Merchants to Encounter has 100 different merchants that characters can bump into, for whatever reason. They buy, sell, trade and repair many different types of merchandise, mostly legal but occasionally not. Most have fixed places of business but others travel and can be encountered on the road. They can be used as a source of adventure hooks, needed people to deal with or simply as random colour.

Burnada Scafly: The man who runs the simple shop Scafly’s Sundries, he claims there is nothing he won’t buy, sell, or trade. An aging wheeler dealer, with wispy hair and arthritis-swollen knuckles, there’s still a glint in Burnada’s steel-gray eyes that says his mind is as sharp as it ever was.
