Merchant

Merchant character artwork
General vendor · Valid town housing

The Merchant arrives when the relevant money and housing conditions are met. His stock supports early exploration and basic supplies.

  • Story: His service helps turn a shelter into a working base. Recruitment depends on conditions, not a single universal story conversation.
  • In the game: Keep a spare valid house and enough money for useful supplies. Exact stock can depend on progression and circumstances, so inspect the shop rather than assuming every listed item is always present.

Story spoilers.

Terraria · PC · 2011 · Retro-style PC game rather than a vintage console release. The detailed progression guides cover ordinary, unmodded Desktop 1.4. · Picture: In-game character portrait / sprite.
