'''Vendor''', '''merchant''', '''blacksmith''' and other related words all refer to a [[NPC]] who is selling and/or buying and/or [[repair]]ing goods and/or services. If this escaped you, it's a pretty broad term for the sort of "useful" NPCs that are (mostly) not directly involved with [[quest]]s and story progression.

==Background==
Since the beginning of [[RPG]]s, there has always been someone there who was interested in buying your "Rotten Apples" or "Diamond Rings", and also able to sell you new treasure for [[gold]], or whatever the local currency would be.

These can be called by some generic term like ''merchant'' or ''vendor'', but is sometimes referred to with their real profession, like a ''blacksmith''. Depending on title, the items they sell can vary, like a potion master would only sell [[potion]]s.

Some vendor NPCs are able to [[repair]] equipment and other functions, and while they mostly are not involved in [[quest]]s or have proper dialogues, they sometimes do that as well. The terms just refer to the game mechanic of selling and buying goods and services to a [[NPC|non-player character]], and does in general not limit other functionalities like being a quest NPC or vital to the story line.
