The Borthuum Company Store is the one-stop shop located on Ora Street in Kharam Dzu on Teras Isle. It houses a pawnshop, gemshop, cleric's shop, weaponry and an armory.

Description

The Borthuum Company Store towers over you, a massive block of solid stone. Its windowless bulk is broken only by a wide set of mithril double-doors. Dwarves and other folk crowd through, many carrying sacks or bags. Beyond the store to the west, a heavily laden cog sits low in the water of the River Muagh.

Clerical Supply

The Clerical Supply is located through the grey archway in the Borthuum Company Store. It is run by Garntek.

NPC

The Borthuum Company Store Armory is run by a dwarven armorsmith.

Description

The dwarven armorsmith wears a thick grey tunic and matching gloves. His eyes are completely covered by thick black hair and you wonder how he manages to see at all.

Room Messaging

Delicately, the dwarven armorsmith balances a helm on the head of an armor stand, completing the suit.

Grinning, the dwarven armorsmith burnishes a shield. "Ye could use this fer a shavin' mirror!" he boasts, then rubs his beard. "Dunno why ye'd want to, though."

"Make sure ta replace the pads in yer helm after a while," the dwarven armorsmith advises. "Ya get knocked in the noggin, ya ring like a bell fer a week ifn ya don't!"

The dwarven armorsmith begins tooling a suit of light leather armor with great precision. "It's fer me niece," he explains proudly.

The dwarven armorsmith carefully attaches buckles to some arm greaves, then tests the strength of the straps with a tug.

The dwarven armorsmith sits on a stool behind the counter, then takes up a long swath of chainmail and begins adding links from a small bucket next to the chair.

Using a small hammer, the dwarven armorsmith adds shiny studs to some leather armor.

With a heavy awl and leather strips, the dwarven armorsmith begins attaching rings to a leather coat.

"Ya gots ta be careful ta oil yer chain," the dwarven armorsmith says sagely, "'specially this close to the sea." He sets a completely rusted chain shirt up on the counter. "We call this here the Rust Beast. Never seen an oil can in all its days." He cackles. "Ya wants ta buy it, I'll give ye a discount!"

Your eyes are drawn to a steel breastplate with a huge hole in the center of it. "That there took a crossbow bolt full on, and he what wore it lived ta tell," the dwarven armorsmith says. "Good workmanship in me armor!"

Weaponry

The Weaponry is located east of the Armory, which is through the steel door. The Weaponry uses trading skill to determine pricing.

NPC

A dwarven weaponsmith is the NPC shopkeeper for the Weaponry.

Description
Room Messaging

Carefully, the dwarven weaponsmith takes the grindstone apart and begins to oil the parts. "Thing squeaks like a half-chewed mouse..." he grumbles.

Groaning slightly, the dwarven weaponsmith pops his knuckles. You, however, wince at the hideous cracking.

Grumbling and cursing under his breath, the dwarven weaponsmith climbs up on a stool to affix the head of a halberd to the pole.

The dwarven weaponsmith moves to the grindstone and carefully sharpens a blade before polishing it and placing it on the rack.

The dwarven weaponsmith takes out a dagger and carefully cleans his fingernails.

The dwarven weaponsmith takes out an oiled cloth and carefully polishes the counter.

Whistling, the dwarven weaponsmith takes out a carving knife and begins shaping the hilt for a dagger.

With obvious pride, the dwarven weaponsmith surveys his shop. "Built this shop up m'self," he says, "with the wife's egg money and my own sweat. Feels good to see travelers such as yourself standing in it."

"Y'know," the dwarven weaponsmith says conversationally, "I near cut off my finger making a blade once." He stops to ponder a moment. "The wife bought that dagger..." He blinks, then industriously wipes the counter.
