Merchant Runner - Tradesperson 1

WHITE, BLACKMEDIUMHUMANOID

Apprenticed to wealthy merchants, these young runners act as intermediaries between craftspersons and merchants. They are the first to become aware of new products and windfalls. They also have a carefully cultivated relationship among the purveyors of a settlement. For encounters involving negotiation or mercantile skill, a merchant runner is a 6th—level challenge. A merchant runner might have an additional Lore skill about a specific category of item (such as jewelry or magic weapons), with a total skill bonus 2 higher than Mercantile Lore.

Special Abilities	Appraising Eye The merchant can use their Mercantile Lore to Recall Knowledge about any item they are offered for sale or appraisal. A success will always determine the book value of any item (except for any additional value that magic may add to a common-looking item.) The merchant can also attempt to Identify Magic using their Mercantile Lore check instead of the usual Arcane, Nature, Occult, or Primal check - and they do not need to know in advance that the item is magical. Hobnobber The market runner's network of contacts make them among the first to be aware of any news in the settlement.
