Nomad Animal TraderReport
English:Nomad Animal Trader · Characters
A Nomad trader who arrives with an entire livestock caravan. He does not keep a shop; he walks the shop to your door — build near Nomad territory and he may come to you, with every animal in the party for sale.
We have animals for sale! Can't survive without some animals! Garrus to carry your supplies when you travel! Dogs for protection and companionship and emergency food! Goats for... uh... goat stuff...
The Nomad Animal Trader is a member of the Nomads. He does not stand in a city waiting for you — he travels with a caravan called the Beast Trader, and every animal in that caravan is stock.
How the caravan reaches you
Beast Trader is an event, and its trigger is tied to distance:
| Condition | Value |
|---|---|
| Prerequisite | The player builds an outpost within 11,000 m of a Nomads-owned location |
| Daily chance | 5% within 6,000 m, scaling down to 0% at 11,000 m |
| Repeat limit | 5 days |
Once triggered, the Nomads send a campaign to your base: 8–10 Nomads, 0–5 Goats, 0–1 Wild Bulls, 1–3 Pack Bulls, 1 Bonedog and 1–4 Pack Beasts, led by the Nomad Animal Trader.
On arrival the leader asks to speak with the player, and opens by offering to sell animals.
Prices
What is on offer includes Garru (pack animals for carrying supplies), Bonedogs, Pack Bulls and Goats.
The man himself
He is not soft in a fight: attributes and weapon skills all sit at 35–45 (randomised by 5). More curiously, his Thievery, Stealth and Lockpicking are also 35–45, with Assassination at 40 — a nomadic herder carrying a full set of thief skills.
His armour is Shoddy grade (5% chance of Standard), his weapon an Ancient-make Staff, and he carries a Basic First Aid Kit and Bread.
