Those familiar with the local markets within the Gate, Greenest, Nashkel, and Beregost may hear rumors related to any of the following:

Rocky Creek continues to retain hunters and other woodsfolk for the collection of various flora and fauna. Rates for each item are below. It is preferred that an arrangement is made beforehand, but all deals will be considered:

Books of all types are of interest for the company, but of particular interest are those that contain previously lost, or esoteric, content. ((at this point, book purchases are generally limited to non-name dusty tomes))

Music is a new source of trade for the company, with few trades made but many coins being traded in those instances. While this fruit may soon wither on the vine, Rocky Creek hopes to turn things around ((paying for original TKL Performer scores))

In addition, Jackard is oft-seen in The Wide, the farmlands near the Gate, Greenest, and the Friendly Arm, eagerly buying gems. While his interest is primarily focused on the gems in the mid-to-upper range - Alexandrite, Kunzite, Topaz, Fire Opal, Sapphire, Emerald and the like - he will make offers on nearly any gem or collection.

Freshly settled in at Hammer Hall, Rocky Creek is once again a little more public with their willingness to buy the local flora and fauna of the region. The following sheet is posted at The Lucky Coin in Greenest, as well as on bulletins where hunters, fisherman, and adventurers may congregate.

There are rumors that say that the list isn't necessarily complete, and that Rocky Creek entertains a wide variety of goods if the price is right.

Old notices may still hang, tattered and posted over, perhaps, in places like Sorcerous Sundries and the Shelf of Many Books:

Those in more refined circles may also hear that Jackard Marks, in particular, buys a variety of gems and jewels.

////we do this primarily for RP, so we expect some RP out of it. we reserve the right to refuse purchase from anyone that can't manage to make trades IC! Thank you!

Upon seeing the pricing list, High Ranger Ashling would immediately leave a note for Jackard at the Lucky Coin in Greenest.

Having met a handful of fisherman and hunters in the last tenday, Jackard ensures that the company's bounty list is freshly hung in Greenest, the Gate, Soubar, and other locales that traders and outdoors-folk may see them.

More discrete adventurers and traders may recall that Rocky Creek Trade Company is also a voracious buyer of gems, oddities, and trade goods of all types.

Bring your haul to Hammer Hall, and be paid well.

Having slowed to a trickle at one point, the gem trade seems to be in full swing once again. Word may travel within interested circles that Jackard has bought not one but two modest-sized gem collections in the last ten day and is indeed seeking others.

Prices are said to be fair, perhaps overly generous on certain stones and generally much more than certain merchants, but that seems not to bother the Rocky Creek trader. Or so the word likely goes..

Gem and jewel collections to be appraised, none too large or small. Offers of reasonable value made in most cases.

Jackard is notably present near the Friendly Arm Inn, soliciting adventurers to procure spider mandibles from within the Cloakwood. While a handful spoke on the subject, a valiant effort was launched by a gnome and a lantana.. but in the end few mandibles were collected. After a few days he left and mentioned he was headed toward Greenest.

New notices posted would make it clear, however, that Jackard was there to buy all manner of goods. Both those listed on the fliers he is distributing (see below) as well as gems, books, and other odds and ends.
