Tallstag Imports
Tallstag Imports is a three-storey stone building near the shipyards, located between the stately Moneylenders Guild and a simple traveller’s shrine of Valkur. The offices occupy the first two floors of the building, while the third functions as cozy lodgings for visiting merchants and other business associates.
Following its founding two years ago, Tallstag Imports has already grown into a prosperous import/export business. In addition to its offices, the company operates out of several warehouses on the waterfront.
Christoff Tallstag
Christoff Tallstag, known mononomously as Christoff, is a wealthy merchant who founded Tallstag Imports two years ago.
Christoff is a shrewd businessman who made his fortune purchasing and betting on gladiators in the now-destroyed Ankharan city of Silver Citadel. Thanks to his numerous contacts and savvy business acumen, he is able to procure rare and, more importantly, expensive items for willing buyers.
Employees
Tallstag Imports provides jobs to roughly 50 employees, primarily coordinators, dockworkers and clerks.
Of these employees, the most noteworthy is Phizia Singlefen, Christoff’s peppy, fastidious secretary. After dropping out of the Vernhorn College of the Mystic Arts five years ago, she moved to Orthay to find a new calling in life. To her delight, it found her almost immediately: bureaucracy.
Phizia enjoys an almost dizzying euphoria from her job: the feeling of crisp paper on her fingertips, the aroma of black ink, the satisfying ooze of melted sealing wax. While her more level-headed boss finds her enthusiasm perplexing, he certainly won’t complain about the results.
Inventory
Tallstag Imports prides itself on its selection of exotic wares. From ancient Nubaran pottery to axebeak jerky, if they don’t have it, they can get it.
Tallstag also maintains a stock of hard-to-find magic items for the discerning adventurer. None of these coveted items come cheap and only those with the heaviest of pouches should bother to enquire.
If a player wants a magic item which isn’t in stock, they may commission Tallstag Imports to procure it for them. After the total amount has been paid, the magic item will be delivered to the player in 1d4 weeks.
