The Assassin's Blade - Audiobook: The Assassin and The Desert
Zushi_HD for "The Spidersilk Merchant" - RC
This merchant is one of the many merchants we find in the city of Xandria, but this one is different; This one is selling Spidersilk, the rarest and most sought-after fabrics in the land. Though we do not know his name in The Assassin and the Desert, we come to find out just how close he is to one of the main characters in the books later on. He divulges that even though he looks and sounds to be in his mid 50's, by purchasing the Silk, he paid for it with twenty-five years of his life, and so truly he is actually in his mid 20's. Being quite a greedy yet relaxed individual, he hopes to find someone who can help him retrieve his years back, whilst still keeping hold of the Siders silk so he can sell it for even more profit.
His voice is that of a middle range, and he speaks with a BRITISH/ ENGLISH accent. He speaks with a calm certainty as he is a businessman, and in TAATD his only interest is to further his own needs.
Returning Character:
"The Spidersilk Merchant" is one of the many roles within The Assassins Blade Novella's in that we find in the later books, so If you apply for this role you must be willing to be on the project long term. his family ties lead him to help another member of the group much later in the story. (Saying any more would be spoilers)

[You are sat at your stall when a young woman walks up to your stall, wide-eyed looking at your wears]
(Slight disbelief)
"You know, you're the first person today to recognize it for what it is."
[Now over your disbelief, you enter into businessman mode]
(Confident, with a hint of charm)
"I try. So tell me, Girl from the North, when have you seen Spidersilk?"
[ The young girl is inquiring why a man from Ardalan is here in Xandria]
(Said with a wink, less businessman, more honest merchant)
"My ship to the southern continent doesn't leave for two days; why not set up shop? Xandria might not be Rifthold, but you never know who might approach your stall."
