Hi all,
For the Kingmaker campaign I run (on Roll20), I have been using a combination of the Kingdom Building rules from Ultimate Campaign (by Paizo) and Ultimate Rulership (by Legendary Games). I just recently hit a snag that I missed noticing beforehand. Basically, my players want to get rid of a cursed item and I provided a roleplaying opportunity for that choice in the form of the Witchmarket (a mobile fey-sponsored black market) that revealed itself to them while they were resting before they have to make a series of passionate speeches to convince different fey factions in the forest to work together to defeat an evil fey sorcerer (if this is ringing a bell for any of you, that's because I am currently running my players through a modified version of The Realm of the Fellnight Queen module).
The cursed item they want to get rid of is a bag of devouring (that almost sucked in the grippli alchemist) that they found (from a modified version of Entombed with the Pharaohs module). I can see what would be the value of the bag of devouring since its market price is listed in the Black Markets (by Paizo) book. Its value is definitely higher than the Purchase Limit of the Witchmarket but given how the merchants are fey, they often ask for something of value (to them) from the buyers instead of coin (or gems). I like to ask for ideas from the community on devious, innovative, or flat-out weird requests by a fey merchant from the Witchmarket.
I hope to see some interesting suggestions from you guys, ;)
Cheers!

Pennywit: I could not find a product called Realm of the Shadow Fey. Did you mean Courts of the Shadow Fey (by Kobold Press)?
Cheers!

Yep, got that one (had to double-check my Kingmaker Vault). The idea of trading in memories is an interesting one. My players are fairly attached to their pcs so this should be interesting. For example, a green hag witch (one of the fey merchants) could ask that the leader of the group (the Kingdom Ruler, a paladin) trade in his memories of the day he married his wife as an acceptable memory worth trading. *cruel grin*
So memories trading is an idea. Anyone else got other ideas?
Cheers!
