Player Merchants

Every player is entitled to have one player merchant in game. However, this does not mean that every player gets a merchant. This merchant acts like a cross between a regular shoppe and a bank.

Purchasing from a Player Merchant

This works exactly like any other merchant. Press b to purchase something.

Obtaining a Merchant

Purchase a merchant contract from a scribe. Then, head down to Bartertown and try to find yourself a blue chair. Once you find one, use the scroll (by pressing shift + r) in the direction of the chair.

Chances are good that you won't be able to find a blue chair as most are already taken. All you can do is wait for some place to open up.

Using your Merchant

The first thing you will want to do is give your merchant a snazzy name. Type /merchname <name>, where <name> will be the name of your merchant. Note that 15 characters is the maximum length for a name. Use _ for spaces.

To deposit something into your merchant, use shift + b, similar to a bank. To set the price of that item, type /setprice <price> where <price> is the value it will be set to. Two things to note about this:

• /setprice will only set the price of the bottom item in the merchant's inventory.
• DO NOT SET THE PRICE NEGATIVE! If you do, you will be banned automatically.

To take something out of your merchant, press b. It does not cost you anything to take an item out of your merchant.

To withdraw any money the merchant may have, type /withdraw.

Should you ever with to get rid of your merchant, type /removemerch.

Losing your Merchant

• If all your items in your merchant are regular items that can be bought at regular shoppes, there is a chance that you will lose your merchant if the DM comes by and sees it. All items will be lost, including any gold the merchant may have had.
• You are guaranteed to lose your merchant if he is void of stock, and during maintenance, the DM does a check for empty merchants to delete.
