Merchants and Services
How prices work
- Each merchant marks up the book price of what they sell (their markup below) and pays a share of it for what they buy (their rate). Every price is rounded up to a whole gold piece.
- A merchant's attitude to the party changes both: friendly takes 10% off and pays 10% more; hostile charges 25% more and pays 25% less.
- Haggling: one Persuasion check by the hero at the counter, DC 15 unless the shop says otherwise. Win and that merchant gives you a further 10% both ways for good; lose and they never haggle with you again.
- Some merchants close at night or until something happens; some stock only appears after a quest.
