"Ah, you see, this dwarf is suffering from a wasting disease and we are taking it in turns to travel to [Insert big capital name here] to search for medicine! would you like to travel with us?"

[ShadowHammer]

Oh, don't worry about him. He's had worse.

May I inquire about the nature of goods you carry, merchant?

"Ah, you see, this... dwarf... is suffering from a wasting disease and we are taking it in turns to travel to the nearest capital city to search for medicine! would you like to travel with us?

Oh, but don't worry about him. He's had worse.

May I also inquire about the nature of goods you carry, merchant?"

"Well my main source of income is this right here, The dwarven extruder! with just a few incantations it can function as a one-man miniature blacksmith! They are fairly common in the dwarven cities. I also have the more mundane goods for trade, Food, water, and minted coins for the human cities."

He hums for a moment, looking at the Small amount of wealth you have.

"The rod is worthless to the people I normally make sales to since I deal in pure metals, but if you give me the copper plate, I can let you use my Extruder on that bronze rod, or give you a hearty ration of food and/or water, or 100 Human coins, there is a city less than a days travel to the west that I just crossed, Mostly humans, I cannot afford the time to escort you there, but whatever your decision, I hope you and your friend make it to the apothecary before his condition progresses."

[Wolfkit]

Can we get a read on the probable combat capabilities of that merchant? If we could kill him, absorb his knowledge and reanimate him and take his stuff it would be quite advantageous, but I'd want to be confident we would win first.

[Shadestyle]

"Well he is a dwarf, which means he is tough for his size, but there isn't anything special about merchants in general, I doubt he could kill my zombie with his bare hands. He sure didn't have trouble lifting that big metal extruder though. Worst case scenario I have to cheat with magic, or he manages to escape."

[MedicInDisquise]

Then make sure he doesn't escape. Lure him in, and then have you and your zombie corner him, and then attack. The staff would hit hard, I would bet.

[Shadestyle]

"Well, i would like you to come over here so you can at least get a good look at it, I would hate to unintentionally gib-GIP you, slip of the tongue.

"That's fair of you-"

You bash him over the head with your staff, and he is stunned by the sudden blow.

"Agh! A bandit are you? what is that, fake blood on your friend, trying to tug on an old dwarf's heartstrings so you can steal his wares?!"

He stumbles back in pain.
