Specialty Shops

Specialty shops are shops that sell items that do not fall under the above wares categories. If five or more specialty shops sell the same specialized wares, they qualify to be added to the wares property, town shop form and town shops template as a new wares category.

Additionally, there may be shops that do not sell physical wares for purchase at all and will instead modify an item presented by adding a design (specialty design shops) or turning the item into a keepsake (keepsake shops). These will always be considered a specialty shop as they provide a service as opposed to an item for sale.
