Ren Duskerly - Curio Vendor and Market Fence
Meet Ren Duskerly, the tiefling curio vendor whose Market Ward stall sells trinkets by day and moves questionable goods by night - a morally gray NPC for smuggling, favors, and back-alley hooks.
"Everything's for sale. The trick is asking the right question, not the right price."
Not every deal made in the Rebuilt Market gets logged with the Trade Guild Consortium, and Ren Duskerly is exactly who you go to when it shouldn't be. Equal parts curio vendor and market fence, she's built a careful reputation on knowing precisely which lines never to cross, and precisely how much everything else is worth. For DMs who want a morally gray contact with real limits and real leverage, Ren fits neatly into almost any Market Ward plot.

Appearance: Ren's small twisting horns are wrapped in colored thread and hung with tiny charms that jingle when she tilts her head, which she does often. Sharp yellow eyes miss nothing, and her forked tail gives away more of her mood than her carefully neutral face ever does. She dresses well, in fine fabrics that don't quite match each other, assembled from stock nobody asked too many questions about. Her stall in the Market Ward is draped in trinkets, secondhand novelties, and small imported oddities, and her hands are always moving, straightening a display, palming a coin, or reaching for something she'd rather you didn't see.
