Riz'aex

Written by Agent Serro

Riz'aex is a traveling merchant that travels far and wide trading for only certain items that he deems valuable. Strangely enough he considers gold a worthless metal and does not seem to like ‘pretty rocks’ as he calls gems. It's unsure what the secret is but Riz'aex only seems interested in Wardens Watch coins. With a few rumors going around that when the brothers make these coins there is some unknown metal they are adding to the coins. Whatever it is, this merchant seems to want as many of those coins as he can get.
Standing only at four and half feet tall, bald, white brush eyebrows that grow down past the back of his eyes, bright teal piercing eyes, with facial features never seen besides him while wearing a simple traveler robe makes him an interesting site to behold. None of the recruits have been able to guess his age, race or origins as of yet and as he does not speak of anything outside of the Wardens Watch. There does seem to be this unusual slight cinnamon scent that always surrounds him adding to the many rumors among the watchers. He does occasionally make certain mentions of not being from ‘here’ and traveling to many other ‘places’ with saying that where he is from, everyone looks like he does.
Some even wonder if maybe he is so old that he may be going senile. It's not uncommon for him to stop halfway through a sentence, then stair off at the ceiling for a few moments like something is there and then finish his sentence as he looks back at you. His personality can definitely be described as eccentric, weird, strange, very outspoken, friendly but sometimes rude and impatient. He always takes a strict stance on being fair, honest and upholding the number of coins needed for his items. One should not be too surprised if he's dealing with you and halfway through, he stops, blinks at you and then will proceed to introduce himself to you like you just now stepped up to him.
The items he has for coin trade are just as strange and unique as he is. One thing is for sure, what he offers can never be found anywhere else around here and could not be crafted either. You always know when he is at the guild hall, first there is always this loud POP noise from outside the guild with a flash of bright light, almost like lightning. He is always alone, not even a pack mule with him, and his first line of business is to immediately seek out both brothers for a long meeting of some kind behind locked doors.
By this time most of the recruits are gathering around in the common area waiting for Riz’aex to come set up shop. It's fascinating to see this as the old man just reaches into thin air, you see a slight shimmering to the area and then with one hand he starts pulling out fully loaded tables, bookcases and within a few minutes a nice little shop set up right inside of the guild. It's hard to predict what he will have for sale as his inventory sometimes stays the same, sometimes changes and then sometimes is all new.
