**On the banks of Elexia's port rests a landmark of trade and Culture: The Haberdashery, with it's gaudy humongous and oddly shaped hat-sign that makes it look about as serious as a Chuck-E-Cheez stacked on top of a clown college.
But that wasn't a factor for Herschell Ratliff, Merchant Extraordinaire. He owns the place now, and keeps all of his items for sale on display here. If you have an item that cant be pawned, Herschell will probably buy it! And if you have a hankering for items that just aren't sold in stores, this store sells it anyway! Herc is a Rebel like that.
Each item is listed with a price that Herschell will gladly sell for, no questions asked! If you want it cheaper, make me an offer and you just may have a deal!**
> Any set item. Will buy! Please ask if I have money first.
> Any item that modifies other items. I will go into debt for these.
> Any item that grants an LSS or Mini LSS. Lets work something out.
> Your non-pawnable loot! Make me an offer.
> Gemshifting - Changes one arted crystal, crystal imbue, or crystal incore to another art. Sorry, I can only offer this service once per week, so it will sometimes be unavailable. Available! 5 Gold.
> Eternal Sun - An ivory sun in glory pendant. Grants the bearer free use of Cleric public services for life. Free to friends of Herschell
> Wayland's home-forged weapons and Armor! Herschell accepts requests, and when Wayland is in he gets right on making your piece! Price varies with request. Competitive with other Forges.
Jebidiah: A Mage Friendly armor (Preferably Nevermelt Ice) that can fit a boy who changes into a Polar Bear, to be imbued with this crystal, provided by the customer. He didn't specify what kind of Crystal it was, so Herschell just has a mystery Crystal hanging around. Estimate: 200
Lumarin: A sheathe made of Golemeye Glass, Diamond Dust Infused, with a Lightning Amulet inset. All materials provided. Estimate: 10
> Eizen's Mundane Item Repair! Eizen will repair any mundane item good as new! 5 Gold.
> Eizen's Item Hoard! No, you can't access the item hoard, you can sell your unwanted items to Eizen in exchange for Vouchers, for use with his other service. Junk!
> Jaffry's Taxidermagical Emporium (Not in-house)- For a cost depending on the creature, Jaffry's Emporium can turn the corpse of any creature into a summoning scroll which can be learned by someone of the right aptitudes. Some degree of randomness and mutation is to be expected in both the form of the creature summoned and the power and alignment of spell scrolls. Varies; Will figure out after I use it once
> Jade Guard Dagger - Bronze Dagger, rusted to a bright sea-green. Modifer 8. May not have more enchantments placed on it. Enchanted with Chameleon Imbue, Ruby Imbue. 100 Gold
> Jade Guard Dagger - Bronze Dagger, rusted to a bright sea-green. Modifer 8. May not have more enchantments placed on it. Enchanted with Topaz Incore, Lifebind(Special bind that effects wielder instead of original owner). 100 Gold
> Force Boomerang - Boomerang of black-dyed ironwood with horn inlay. When thrown can either amplify its momentum or have it leave a force field trail in its wake. - 75 Gold
> River Key - A guardless dagger of silvered steel, a perfect sapphire adorning its hilt. May be sliced through any water, still or running, to shave off a whip of whirling liquid attached about the dagger's blade. This water whip is ten foot long and strong as braided leather. It may alternatively be sunk into the ground during quiet moments before any body of water and turned to cause the waters to part temporarily, allowing most bodies of water to be crossed on foot. - 80 Gold
> Dirty Pool - An onyx imbued pool cue that has the ability to cause an Erase effect on things or areas it touches. 50 Gold
> Legion - A waxy block of some shiny silvery substance. The owner may chose a specific type of item (sword, dagger, gauntlets, mask, pendant, boots, etc...). The block will become a featureless item of that type. (Modifier 2 if applicable) It can then absorb other items of that type you own, gaining the ability to transform into that item in an instant. The type of item chosen can only be changed if Legion changes ownership. Currently unavailable
Crab Claws - A pair of odd gaunlets, without individual fingers but instead a pair of claws, one of the thumb, the other for the fingers. Made of reddish orange crab carapace. Hard as iron.
> Allows wearer to use certain Crab devices far more efficiently than the stupid monkey hand humans have.
> Unlock 1: Once per encounter the claws may pinch something they'd been holding onto for at least one post with Superhuman Strength
Crab Legs - A belt and attached cuisses of reddish orange crab carapace, with two proportionate crab legs of the same material hanging from them behind and to the side of the wearers legs, reaching the ground. All as hard as iron.
> The legs have a controlled animation and are strong enough to support the wearers weight. Articulated to allow for quick and efficient lateral movement, helpful for strafing and dodging without turning.
> Unlock 1: Of someone or something tries to move you against your will, conscious or not, the legs will automatically attempt to prevent it, doubling your weight and clawing at the ground.
Crab Cannon - A large, wide barreled hand cannon of reddish orange crab carapace. Requires two hands to use unless you are wearing the Crab Claws.
> Uses a magically generated blast of water to launch most any projectile you can jam in there, the projectile hitting with the force of a strong punch. Charging the blast for up to two posts can increase this strength level by one but leaves it unusable for as many posts as it was charged post.
> Unlock 1: The gun can be loaded and fired in the same post now. Charging cooldown is reduced by a post.
Full Set Ability: You count as a homarid for all intents and purposes. Water spells cost 5 less per level for you.
60 Gold per piece! A real bargain!
Consumables
None!
> Pugsly, an enchanted dog statue. Pugsly stands about 2 feet long, 1.5 feet tall, is composed of iron sticks (like rebar, perhaps) and has about thirty barbs sticking out of his back and sides (but not underbelly). Pugsly is enchanted with Enlightened animation, and always knows which direction his owner is, though he may not be smart enough to take the most efficient route and may instead take the most direct route (such as through a lake, digging through or under a wall rather than going around, etc). - 100 Gold to a good home
Finances - 212 Gold (Also, 50 gold is reserved for the restoration of the Ryach-Leen)

**Quinn entered the shop, curious, and saw two mage daggers he'd get to get his hands on.**
Quinn - I only have 45 gold, but I can offer that and this rare boomerang for the two mage daggers.

Force Boomerang - Boomerang of black-dyed ironwood with horn inlay. When thrown can either amplify its momentum or have it leave a force field trail in its wake.

Herschell slowly opened his glass display case and withdrew the daggers.
"It feels so good to have one of these instead of doing all my deals in a booth."
He accepted Quinns deal, and then waved Eizen towards the counter.
"I don't do business in my own closet."
Quinns items: > Mage Dagger (Body) - A silver katar dagger inlaid with bone with a bronze handle. Those wounded by the this dagger lose a level of strength for the rest of the encounter. Multiple wounds do not stack. - 60 Gold
> Mage Dagger (Fire) -An iron kris dagger with an obsidian hilt and a dragons-head pommel. As long as the blade is not in contact with a body, it can rapidly heat and reforge itself into any shape you can visualize. This does not change its mass. - 60 Gold

Olo lands outside the shop and walks in to see his good find Herschell. "I see you finally got a shop set up. Congratulations! You chose a good time to leave that field trip, btw, it only got crazier. Anyway I'm back to pay the debt me and my brother owe you. Here's your 12 gold. He said all while smiling and admiring the wares.
"Thank you!" Said Herschell, "I value a man who keeps his promises! Come back whenever you need to sell or buy, your company is always welcome at the haberdashery!"

"As long as you have the best deals in town, I'll keep coming back. Take care!" He waved and was off. As he was leaving he spoke to his brother across the link OtN- "Hey bro, you said that job was in Sylvan, right? I'll see you there. Make sure to pick up Damek on the way."
"So, you're here. Why would I let a total stranger operate an independent shop and buy items inside of my item buying and selling shop? Your willingness to buy items makes you my competition."

Eizen - "So if I ran all pawns by you we would have a deal? Take whatever ones you like. Although I doubt people will exchange expensive pawns for vouchers. I expect old clothes, mostly."
"Now, I'm not opposed to working with someone, and offering services. I've already made an arrangement with Wayland to take orders for him and sell his wares for him, and in exchange I receive a portion of the profit. But this seems ... different somehow. More like ... You're receiving all the benefits of this arrangement and I'm receiving none."

"I really doubt that anyone will sell you a magic item in exchange for mundane item repair vouchers, when I am offering them cash. Also, my name is on the door. Other than that, I think we have a deal."

Eizen - "Agreed. Perhaps your signs should include a vendor section? Or perhaps a more general "specialists on tap" that lists the additional services offered?
**Eizen writes down an example that looks as follows:
Specialist Services Herschell has friends all over the place! > Smithing- Varies > Non-Magical Item Repair - 5g
> Junk Disposal - Old clothes? Broken dishes? Bricks? You can get Non-Magical Item Repair vouchers for that stuff!
