Amerikus's other businesses include an Inn, a bank, a butcher shop, a jewlery shop, an apple orchard (run by his daughter Yudit), a warehouse (run by Yudit's husband Brilldi), and a swordsmithery (run by his son Weslak).    He is also the Guildmaster of the Eldamar City Armorer's Guild; President of the Metalworker's UnionHis interest in the auction is the acquisition of a special jeweled hammer that is supposedly dwarven made.**NOTE: Specifics on the hammer, shown on a later post as item C14, still need to be determined and suggestions would be welcomed.Lady Margaret Austin, 0-level human.   She is from one of Eldamar City’s founding families and is extremely wealthy.   This sixty-year-old woman is also the President of the Eldamar City University, one of Phlooredah’s most prestigious institutions of higher learning.   The University’s Library was used to research the histories of some of the items to be auctioned, at which time she decided to attend. Sir James Michael "the Red Fox" Austin, 2nd  level human neutral good fighter.   The flamboyant and egotistical 34-year-old son of Lady Austin.   He worked as a bureaucrat in the section of the city housing the university, until the position was eliminated during the recent government reorganization.  He is accompanying his mother to protect her, despite his rather meager fighting skills.   General Teakas, 6th level dwarf fighter.   She is Americus‘s daughter.  She is going to the auction to guard her father and the other three aristocrats.    She is also one of Queen Jennifer’s five top military leaders of the continent, as well as a member of the adventuring group known as The Dragonstalkers (that team is detailed in a misplaced copy of Polyhedron Magazine.  I'll post the information when I find it). Kralt LordholdingA4.    This forested lordholding runs from the north-central to northeastern Phlooredah Coast.  The Lordholding has always been a military dictatorship, ruled up until the last decade by powerful half-ogre fighters.   The last half-ogre leader was assassinated by a member of the Lordholding’s loosely-organized Assassins Guild, which is a recently inducted member of the ILA (which the Jawl and Halla Guilds will be unaware of).   The current Lordholder is a human monk, who had nothing to do with the assassination, but saw an opportunity to seize power following his predecessor’s death.    **NOTE: The specific members of this Guild who will be attending have yet to be determined, and suggestions would be welcomed.</blockquote>
