Weapon Shop

The weapon shop was during the beginning of Sosaria and the earlier days of the Age of Enlightenment the place where shoppers had to pursue weaponry of different kinds, from the mundane to the otherworldly.

History
As per today, the more combat-orientated purchaser can simply buy both armour and weaponry at one of the armouries that can be found in the cities or towns of Britannia. However, it was not always been that way.

Age of Darkness
In the humble beginning of Sosaria, actual arms dealers did not yet exist, but in its place there were some shops that sold a very primitive and small assortment. As the reign of terror of the wizard Mondain started to plague the Realm, more advanced establishments of different merchandise started to blossom. Now, individuals could actually buy weapons or armour in two separate shops.

Although Mondain's alliances with starwalking monsters of unparalleled savagery, were highly feared, it also brought highly advanced weapons into the Realm. These devastating weaponry became truly sought-after by the customers in the weapon shop. After the defeat of the Evil One, nothing of these alien technology remained on Sosaria. However, more sophisticated weapons came in its place. This became the norm in the further ages of these dark times.

Age of Enlightenment
During the Quest of the Avatar, people still could buy their arms at these weapon shops. All this ended as armouries became more profitable during the reign of the tyrannical Lord Blackthorn.
