Myraeth is a sharp-eyed, exceptionally well-dressed gentleman whose calm, scholarly demeanor makes him an intellectual anchor in the otherwise rowdy frontier atmosphere of Delver’s Square. While he makes his living catering to the bloody, gold-hungry trade of dungeon exploration, Myraeth treats magic items not as mere commodities, but as precious fragments of Eraedal’s lost history.
He speaks with a measured, articulate precision and displays an abundance of patience when dealing with eccentric wizards, manic collectors, or traumatized mercenaries fresh from the deep ruins. He has earned a sterling reputation across Ptolus—and a highly respected standing with the Delver’s Guild—because he refuses to lowball desperate adventurers. He values long-term business partnerships and political stability far more than a quick, predatory profit. However, do not mistake his gentlemanly fairness for weakness; Myraeth possesses a razor-sharp intellect, and his business integrity is matched only by his absolute zero-tolerance policy for thieves, fraud, and arcane manipulation.

What Myraeth Will Do For the Party:
-
The Honest Buyer: He will purchase identified miscellaneous magic items, potions, rings, wands, and scrolls from them at a reliable, consistent 50% of the item’s standard gold piece value.
-
Arcane Appraisal: For a standard fee of 10% of the item’s baseline market value (minimum 5 gp), he will use his personal divination array and deep lore to fully identify complex, unaligned, or potentially cursed items.
-

What Myraeth Will NOT Do:
-
The Martial Refusal: Myraeth is strictly a non-martial dealer. If the party drags a magical greatsword, an enchanted suit of full plate, or a newly licensed Imperial firearm into his shop, he will entirely refuse the transaction and politely point them across the square to Rastor’s Weapons or the Bull and Bear.
-
Under-the-Table Deals: Myraeth is a law-abiding merchant who respects city ordinances. He will not purchase items he suspects were stolen from surface citizens or other registered adventuring parties, nor will he deal in items bearing illegal, forbidden traits.
