"Pliedunk trader. Pliedunk swap things for things, yes?"
Pliedunk is a Goblin. But not just any Goblin, not a marauder or raider. Pliedunk is a trader, and very proud of his family's career. When Pliedunk meets new people, he makes a great show of showing off all his wares, by unrolling his blanket sack and spreading it on the ground. He then arranges the goods in an aesthetically pleasing jumble, and asks his new customers to make choices and offer junk of their own. Among his wares are the following: - Some string, about a foot long, with some snarled knots at one end - A bent fish hook - Two matching copper spoons - A shrivelled and slightly dry vegetable - A singed roll of paper (actually a scroll of lightning bolt) - An old dagger with a cracked blade - A paintbrush with the bristles all stuck together - A handful of snails, some with the snail eaten out of them - A cooked chicken leg - A small dried wheel of cheese - A broken necklace with a shiny piece of sapphire set into it (with some repair, worth 150 gold pieces) - A horse hoof trimming knife - Some brass buckles, one of them bent and twisted - Some slightly chewed leather - An arrowhead of blessed silver - A small pouch of wood shavings that smell nice (sandalwood) - A little spiky snake monster carved of bone (It's actually a little unpleasant and Pliedunk wants rid of it) - A feather twisted into the shape of a swan (it's just a feather) - A little pink and green spindle shaped stone (yes, an Ioun Stone) - Three candles, one of them a bit melted, the others have red stripes running down them - Some scraps of really nice brocade fabric, not enough to make anything out of, but they feel nice - Some clicky-clacky blobs of rounded glass that can be rolled like uneven dice - Two silver-plated buttons - An obnoxiously large belt buckle with an eagle cast into it - The end of a knight's war lance, with about a foot of wooden shards still in it - A torch - A large glass bottle with a twisted steel wire cage around it, full of amber liquid (brandy) - A little glass vial with green liquid inside (wyvern venom) - A broken glass lens Statistics: Pliedunk is a Goblin commoner with like 2 hit points. He's not hard to beat up or kill, but I hope you feel good about it, hero. You'll probably get cursed by the Goblin god of junk collectors or something. How you can use Pliedunk, Goblin Junk Trader in your game: - A band of adventurers might happen across Pliedunk happily looting a pile of refuse, and wishing to trade with them. - The Player Characters might run across a pair of regular Goblins kicking Pliedunk and trying to take his sack. If they rescue him, he'll gladly give them something out of his stash. - If they've run into him before, Pliedunk can become a trusted sight to run into in all sorts of out-of-the-way places. If they're willing to trade him their junk, he can rise in status and become a junkmonger, and perhaps the most famed and reputable member of his family.
