Aberoth darklow3

Darklow refused to pose for a picture. Said it was a waste of his valuable time.

Darklow is a former thief who was driven out of town for selling stolen goods. He can be found in the Orc Cave by going down the bottom left path just after the entrance. He helps the player by teaching the dagger skill and buying and selling practically anything. He buys engraved items and will unengrave them in anywhere from 20 to 35 minutes (real time).

AI Behavior[]

As a shopkeeper, Darklow buys and sells practically everything, including stolen items. He has worse prices than other shopkeepers, charging about 10% more and paying less. Unlike Sholop, however, Darklow will buy items that are engraved by other players and will eventually remove the personalization from the item. Like all shopkeepers, he will destroy items that he is overstocked in by placing them behind a wall. He restocks leather boots and hatchets if he is understocked. He also makes various kinds of gloves, and all 4 special bone shields, if given the proper materials.

Darklow will not buy or sell:[]

Items Darklow buys for unique prices:[]

Items Crafted[]

Darklow will craft an item here when he has all of the materials in stock. Crafted items must be bought.

Character[]

Aberoth darklow1

Darklow is kind of a jerk.

Darklow is a darker-skinned man with a goatee, a ponytail, and a dark blue outfit. He is generally rude to champions unless they are buying things from him. He also holds a low opinion towards most of the NPCs in town, which is mostly reciprocated. Although not much is known, it is possible to piece together bits of Darklow's past by talking to him and other NPCs. At one point, Darklow was a rogue under Ratingar's command. Realizing that his leader was a dead end, Darklow left his side and opened up a shop in town, creating competition with Sholop. A rivalry soon formed between the two shopkeepers, culminating in Sholop driving Darklow out of town for fencing stolen goods. These days, Darklow leads a bitter and lonely existence in the Orc Cave, returning to town only occasionally to drink his sorrows away in the tavern.

Gambling[]

While at Darklow's, a player can gamble money on a coin toss by issuing the command:

bet <gold amount(100–1000)> [one(default) / two / three / four / five] <heads / tails>

When prompted with this command, Darklow will announce the bet as he tosses [one / two / three / four / five] gold coin(s) into the air. At the same time, he takes the <gold amount> gold wager from the player. Subsequently, if all [one / two / three / four / five] coins land on <heads / tails>, Darklow gives the wager back to the player with [one / two / three / four / five] times the wager in winnings, minus a fee of 10 gold per coin tossed. Otherwise, Darklow keeps the wager, usually gloating about his win. ("Lucky me!")

All coins tossed are left on the ground for any player to pick up.

Trivia[]

  • Darklow is one of the only NPCs who refuses to tell you the time of day, the other being Gurun.
  • If you sell Darklow an item engraved by another player, he will congratulate you, say he never liked that player very much anyway, or say that "it'll be our little secret".
  • If Darklow is drunk, he will sell items for less gold than normal.
  • Darklow apparently knows nothing about the sun, but he hates the moon.
