Sorcerous Sundries is a colorful circular building located in the eastern part of the city of Baldur's Gate, close to the city gates. Its primary function is the selling and buying of magical weapons and armor, projectiles and ammunition, spell scrolls, wands and potions. Non-magical weapons and armor, along with random miscellaneous items, will also be purchased for resale.
First Floor
As soon as the party walks in the door, the owner, a mage named Halbazzer Drin, is observed standing behind the counter and Ordulinian is standing in front of it. Ordulinian will give you a quest should you speak with him.
Second Floor
On the second floor, a mage named Niemain is practicing a new spell and will attack, along with fellow mages Oulam, Wheber Ott and William Garst, if Gorion's Ward or any other member of the party annoys him.
Entering with Xzar in your party will cause Niemain to initiate unique dialog with you, mentioning that Xzar had made frequent reports about you and your activities fighting the Iron Throne. If you ask them who they are, Niemain will reveal himself to be Xzar's superior and a member of the Zhentarim. He will advise you to search the Iron Throne tower in the West of the city, as they are a mutual enemy.
The exchange is slightly different if Montaron is in your party, but Xzar is dead - he will point you towards the Iron Throne headquarters, but will not reveal any more information as he does not trust you and does not value Montaron as particularly capable without Xzar.
Either way, Niemain and his group will then leave without a fight.
During Chapter 7 which serves as the prologue for the Siege of Dragonspear campaign, the player is requested to fetch some items for Halbazzer Drin as part of The Sorcerous Sundries Caper side quest.
The player will be interuppted upon by the motley crew of a Drow by the name of Sethyl who are attempting to conduct a robbery.
The surrounding cupboards can also be looted for a Potion of Mirrored Eyes , a Potion of Magic Shielding , a Potion of Heroism , a Potion of Fire Resistance and a Potion of Invisibility . The nearby shelves contain scrolls of Protection From Electricity , Protection From Cold and a Cursed Scroll of Petrification .
Store Inventory
The prices in the store are affected by the charisma of the party leader and the reputation of the group. A higher reputation gives lower prices. As long as the item is not in stock, Halbazzer will buy items for 50% of their item value.
Note: The prices listed were derived from the original Baldur's Gate and may not be indicative of what is quoted by the seller for your current Reputation and Charisma level. Item amounts are up to date, however, mistakes are still evident and several items are currently
overstocked compared to what should be listed.
