Merchant Gargoyles

Merchant Gargoyles are the greedy counterparts of Information Gargoyles. They sell or exchange goods throughout Gallowmere.

Characteristics

Appearance

The merchants have a blue to silvery-white exterior.

Other sources claim that the merchants are distinguishable from their informative brethren by their red stone skin instead of a greenish patina.

Personality

As merchants are initially mute, their overall personality cannot be determined. A book found in Dan's Crypt explaining gold coins states that they are avaricious. This can be seen by how they voraciously gobble up any coins offered them. They also express sadness should Sir Dan have second thoughts about purchasing.

Other sources have observed these creatures as being as expressive as their green counterparts. They often present as extremely eager to make a sale.

Gameplay

MediEvil

In MediEvil, Sir Dan can buy ammo for his ranged weapons, an enchantment for his Broad Sword, or have his Gold Shield repaired by these creatures. They can also sell him weapons that had been stolen from him by thieving imps.

If Dan is wearing the Super Armour while shopping at a Merchant Gargoyle in the 2019 remake, he will pay an extra 10% of the service/item price, although this is not indicated in the menu itself. It is therefore recommended that the armour is taken off before shopping.
