The Merchant is a friendly NPC that sells items at the [[Shop]] location. He will always sell 3 [[relics]], 7 [[cards]], 3 [[potions]], and a card removal service, which allows the player to remove a [[cards|card]] in exchange for [[gold]]. Each time the card removal service is used (limit once per shop), the price will increase by 25 unless the player has the [[Smiling Mask]] [[Relic]], which makes the price always cost 50 gold. Both [[the Courier]] [[Relic]] and [[Membership Card]] [[Relic]] will decrease the cost of all products, and [[the Courier]] will have the Merchant restock sold items.
