General Store
The Time of Troubles & Era of Upheaval
Inspired By Ed Greenwood
Homestead Mercantile is the lifeblood of Westbridge, providing everything from farming tools and seed grain to lantern oil and travelling gear. If someone needs it, Mara Wescott can probably get it. Mara has built a network of trusted suppliers across the region, and she knows more about the region’s trade routes than most merchants in the region.

The Homestead Mercantile does not stock weapons or armour, but other adventuring gear (valued at 25gp or less) can be purchased here (for prices, see Adventuring Gear in the Players Handbook). If Mara doesn’t have it in stock, she’ll offer to get it in with the next shipment for a small fee.

Mara Wescott is a 43 year old woman. A tall woman with a no-nonsense demeanour, piercing blue eyes, and auburn hair tied back in a practical braid. A knife rests at her hip—for cutting twine and prying open crates. Mara is pragmatic and fiercely independent. She values fair trade but has a soft spot for struggling farmers. She is always blunt with her words but never cruel, and while she’ll drive a hard bargain, she won’t cheat an honest customer.

Mara spent her childhood on the road, following wagon caravans from town to town. She settled in Westbridge and took over the Homestead Mercantile from its previous owner, an ageing dwarf who taught her the tricks of the trade.
