Covetous Shen (PF 2e) (PC list)

COVETOUS SHEN

You hear a small bell ringing before you see the source of the bell, an old Asian man with a giant backpack and a staff, on top of which is the bell. He seems to be lost in thought then, when he sees you, he has a look of surprise on his face.  He quickly drops his backpack, and faster than a man his age should move, he lays out a red carpet filled with shiny items of all sorts.  He beckons you urgently and says;

“I have precisely what you need. You can say you do not need anything? That is only because you have not yet seen what I have to offer good sirs!”

“My stock has a lifetime guarantee and a two-day warranty!”

All items cost 1d4 * 100gp less than their item limit cost. This discount increases the more the PCs buy from Shen. Increase the die to a maximum of d20 for every 1,000gp spent. For example, spending 1,000gp increases the discount die to 1d6, 2,000gp increases it to 1d8, etc. Shen can also source items not listed.
