Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Academy Revisited, IC01

Tinker of Tinker's Trinkets

"Whoah, whoah! I have not been an active bard for a long time. Now I am a mere shopkeeper. I find that this is much better suited to my temperament, thank you very much. Now for purchases of my goods, I am at your srevice, Sir!"

 

[KerlanRayne]

"And about the scrolls, alas, I have none. You might talk to Wizard Crus about those, or perhaps the Priestess in Bostwick?"

"Bostwick? We haven't heard of it yet. Where is it and who is this priestess. Is there anything else there?"

 

[Scotley]

Tylara

"We are all wizard's, perhaps there are some spell-casting services we could offer as payment? Is there any service you might need or perhaps something your other customers might pay cash for?"

Tinker says, "Bostwick is the next town to the north from Pembrose. About the same distance up the River Wren as Twain is from Pembrose up the Quail River."

And to Tylara, Tinker says:
"Wizards, eh? Hmm, I don't know, I don't usually do business that way, leads to too much hunger for me! But, you're welcome to make me an offer of whatever services you can perform that you think are worth the goods that you wish to have."

Kerlan

Tinker says, "Bostwick is the next town to the north from Pembrose. About the same distance up the River Wren as Twain is from Pembrose up the Quail River."

"Well, so there is a priestess there. She may have some healing items. Is there anything else of interest there?"

And to Tylara, Tinker says:
"Wizards, eh? Hmm, I don't know, I don't usually do business that way, leads to too much hunger for me! But, you're welcome to make me an offer of whatever services you can perform that you think are worth the goods that you wish to have."

"Maybe I can Identify some items for you? How much credit would you give me for that?"

 

[Leif]

Tinker of Tinker's Trinkets

"Not much else of interest in Bostwick, at least of interest to me. Hmmm, interesting proposal you make! What would you say that it's worth to you? I'm not accustomed to dealing with wizards, you know."

 

[KerlanRayne]

Kerlan

"Not much else of interest in Bostwick, at least of interest to me. Hmmm, interesting proposal you make! What would you say that it's worth to you? I'm not accustomed to dealing with wizards, you know."

"Well for less than you can do it yourself, how about 75 gp?"

 

[Leif]

Tinker of Tinker's Trinkets

"Ohh, pshaw!! That's hardly a fair price! I'll not have you going all over town saying, 'Oh, that Tinker, he's a no good cheater, he is! Why, he practically stole a spell from me!' No, that will never do. I just have two items that I'd like to know a bit more about, so, how about, say, 125 gp for each of them? Can you live with that? Oh, all right, 150 gp each?"

OOC: I'm turning over a new leaf! Gone are the days of needy wizards!

 

[KerlanRayne]

Kerlan

"Ohh, pshaw!! That's hardly a fair price! I'll not have you going all over town saying, 'Oh, that Tinker, he's a no good cheater, he is! Why, he practically stole a spell from me!' No, that will never do. I just have two items that I'd like to know a bit more about, so, how about, say, 125 gp for each of them? Can you live with that? Oh, all right, 150 gp each?"

Kerlan is somewhat startled by the turn of events but takes it in stride. "I believe that would be fine. I won't be able to do it today, however. Hold on to that Clairvoyance potion for me and I'll get back to you." Kerlan begins to look around the town for the materials he needs to make an Artificer's Monocle. He planned on making one anyway, and now seems like the perfect time. It will cost him 750gp and 60xp to create. He will also keep an eye out for Crus's arrival.

 

[Leif]

For simplicity's sake, we'll just say Kerlan easily locates everything he needs, and Tinker agrees to save the clairvoyance potion for you.

While Kerlan is gathering his needed supplies around Pembrose, the boat (ship) arrives from Twain, and some moments later, you see a familiar wizard as he enters the Lonesome Drake. Looks like it's going to be a pleasant evening, woudln't you say?
