👉 A shop is a special room where a shopkeeper sells goods to the player character.
ℹ️ Description
A shop is a specialized room filled with items for sale. A shopkeeper stands near the entrance, ensuring you pay for anything you take out of the room. Shops provide a reliable way to purchase much-needed equipment, identify unknown items for a fee, and sell your unwanted loot for gold.
The price of identification services in specialized shops is half to that of a General Store, but the shopkeeper identifies only item types they sell.
