- "Sholop can be a bit thick at times."

Sholop is the main shopkeeper in town. He can be found behind the bottom center door of the main hallway. Sholop aids players by buying and selling items and training them in the use of the shield.
Quests
Sholop only has one quest, a quest for revenge.
Kill the white wolf and his pack
Sholop's quest becomes available upon completion of Inala's sixth quest (hunt 10 wolves). To complete his quest, you must kill the white wolf and its pack. This can be a difficult task because the white wolf can do a lot of damage and will flee back to its cave at low health. It is advised that you kill the rest of the pack before going after the white wolf, because they will all run when the white wolf gets low on health. Upon completion of the quest, Sholop rewards the player with the Shield Skill.
AI Behavior
Sholop spends his days in his shop, wandering from place to place every few seconds. As a shopkeeper, Sholop offers better prices than Darklow, buying for higher and selling for lower. He has three different ways of interacting with items. If he is overstocked with any item, he will eventually destroy one by moving it behind a wall at the bottom of the screen. If an item is in the wrong area in his store then he will eventually move it to its proper location. If he doesn't have enough of certain items then he will retrieve them from behind the wall. Sholop will always stock clubs, knives, and leather caps. He refuses to buy engraved items, though he will never move or destroy them either.

Character
Sholop is a dark-haired, light-skinned overweight man who wears a dark orange outfit.
Although he has been described as dense, Sholop was once a skilled fighter with a head for justice. After being badly wounded by a wolf, Sholop gave up fighting and opened up a shop to aid fighters of the rogue resistance. He has a somewhat complicated history with Ratingar, as Sholop used to employ him as a boy. Sholop drove Darklow from town for acting as a fence and selling stolen goods.
Trivia
- If you take an "o" and an "l" from his name, it spells 'shop'.
- In Tavelor's now-defunct journal, he mentions that one of Sholop's friends was killed by the white wolf.
- Even though Sholop does not buy or sell snowballs, he will still say "Enjoy your new snowball, [player]" if someone picks one up in his shop.
