[quote]”Good day, Master Rinzhammer! What good do you bring today?” asked the farmer.

“Ah, my friend, good day! I have many things to show you! But I believe you have been looking for these…”. As the trader replied, he reached into the wagon to retrieve a leather bag. It appeared to have some heft to it. He untied the leather strap around the top of the bag and reached in, pulling out a spherical stone, a deep blue with red flecks. A rare blue dragonstone, so-called because some dragons once prized it for their hoards.

“It is remarkable, my friend! Wherever do you find these?” asked the farmer,

“That, good farmer, is a secret that I cannot share. But I have more if you’d like to see…”

The Northern Chadi are consummate traders and are often called upon to find rare and otherwise unobtainable items for their customers. One of these items, which is peculiar to the Northern Chadi, is dragonstones. These gems are normally composed of two distinct minerals, with one creating veins or flecks through the other. While the origin of these stones is a secret held only by the Northern Chadi, they are usually sold as spheres.

The stones are polished to a mirror-like finish and are considered to give the holder a boon, depending on the composition of the stone.
