Provisioner

There is no end to the number of odd things that a traveller of adventurer may find in need of, and the one place where nearly all of these might be found for sale is the local Provisioner's Shop. They provide professional adventurers with many of the things they need for journeys into the wilderness and deep dungeons.

In old times, only the guilds sold such items as Lockpicks, various kinds of glasses for seeing what the naked eye cannot (Peer Gems), equipment for working clandestinely in the dark, and the like. But these times are long past, and the market now open for everyone.

History
From Ultima III to Ultima V, only guild shops sold these items. This changed in Ultima VI, where the shops, while still called guild shops, became a legal market and were found often. By Ultima VII, the guild shops had disappeared, making room for normal provisioners.
