Giacomo is a traveling merchant who can be found while exploring. He sells potions, books, and erotica. Some items in his stock will only be offered to characters of certain genders or with certain transformations.

Since Giacomo does not have a fixed location for his store, it will not be added to Places and must be found with Explore each time.

First encounter

As you travel, you see another person on the road. He is tethered to a small cart that is overloaded with a hodgepodge of items. He is dressed in a very garish manner, having a broad, multicolored hat, brocaded coat and large, striped pantaloons. His appearance is almost comical and contrasts with his severe and hawkish facial features. The man sees you, smiles and stops his cart.

"Greetings, traveler! My name is Giacomo. I am, as you can see, a humble purveyor of items, curios and other accoutrements. While I am not in a position to show you my full wares as my shop is packed on this push-cart, I do offer some small trinkets for travelers I meet."

The merchant looks at you sharply and cracks a wide, toothy smile you find... unnerving. The merchant twists his way around to access a sack he has around his back. After a moment, he swings the sack from his back to have better access to its contents. Inquisitively, the merchant turns back to you. "So stranger, be you interested in some drafts to aid you in your travels, some quick pamphlets to warn you of dangers on journeys or..."

Giacomo pauses and turns his head in both directions in a mocking gesture of paranoid observation. His little bit of theatrics does make you wonder what he is about to offer. "...maybe you would be interested in some items that enhance the pleasures of the flesh? Hmmm?"

Giacomo's grin is nothing short of creepy as he offers his wares to you. What are you interested in?

Trivia

  • When the player purchases the Yoga Guide, Giacomo makes a reference to the Discworld character CMOT Dibbler, a shrewd tradesman who always claims that at the price he is selling his goods for, he is "Practically cutting my own throat".
