Deadcat Big ShopReport

English:Deadcat Big Shop · Characters

The Deadcat travel shop. The Fishing Village is the only light still on along the Northern Coast, and this is that light — step outside the village and there is no trading point left on the whole shoreline.

The Deadcat Big Shop is a travel shop run by the Deadcat. The "Big" in the name is not really the point; the location is. On the Northern Coast it is very nearly the only place you can sell anything at all.

TipThe Fishing Village on the Northern Coast offers exactly three services — a bar, a fish shop, and this general store. Walk out of the village and the entire coastline has no trading point left.

What it sells

It is stocked as a traveller's resupply — broad rather than deep:

Maximum stock is 120 items, restocking every 24 hours, and it is open during the day only.

The blueprints are the real reason to come

The Deadcat Big Shop also carries a set of blueprints and maps, which is unusual for a village this remote:

Building blueprints: Camp Shelter, Mercenary Tent, Scrap Tent

Armour blueprints: Straw Hat, Rattan Hat, Masked Helmet, Visored Helmet, Tagelmust, Bandana, Side-Angle Hachigane, Iron Hat, Karuta Zukin, Kusari Zukin, Black Bandana, Red Bandana, Armoured Face Plates, Armoured Hood, Sandogasa

Maps: Map of the Shek Kingdom, Map of the Swamps, Map of the United Cities (Extended Territories), Map of Vain, Map to Mongrel, Map to World's End

NoteThe maps are what makes this shop worth a detour. Each one marks its region straight onto your world map, saving a great deal of blind exploration.

Who is behind the counter

The shopkeeper is the Deadcat Vendor, a named member of the Deadcat who is normally found in the Deadcat Bar in the Fishing Village. The wiki puts it bluntly: aside from one warning, they are no different from an ordinary barman.

The warning is about the Cannibals. They call them "the painted tribe" — they roam outside the village and pick off travellers who stray too far, keeping their victims prisoner in the lair and eating them piece by piece. And if you see one, there will be a hundred more behind it.
