Suggested Characteristics
Being a merchant involved having a headway for numbers, a hard personality. the ability to make deals with hostile adversaries, a solid sword arm to fight off bandits, and the intuition for knowing what people want and need. The art of clientele is the artwork of finding the best path to profit, and that way might be unlike with each transaction.
