Editing Wasteward (section)

== Merchants & Craftsmen==

As the capital of the Marches, Wasteward has attracted many merchants and craftsmen to set up permanent residence. These include an apothecary, armourers, butchers, chandlers, charcoalers, cobblers, furriers, glassworkers, jewelers, litigants, locksmiths, masons, metalsmiths, millers/Bakers, ostlers, outfitters, physicians, potters, roofers, ropemakers, sages, salters, scribes, a shipwright, tailors, tanners, teamsters, timberwrights, tinkers, weaponcrafters, weavers, woodcrafters, and yeomen. Most establishments are located in the areas immediately surrounding the Emperor's Square, or on the streets leading to the eastern, western, and southern gates of the town.

As in most major trade centres, the dwarven clans maintain a small guildhall for the use of their traveling merchants. A small number of dwarven merchants also reside permanently in Wasteward, usually to engage in the buying of local artifacts and magical items, and the selling of luxury items imported from faraway lands. The prices they charge for their goods tend to reflect their rare nature. And while they are usually happy to purchase rare items, it takes a wily haggler to obtain a good sale price.
