One of the many unusual shops on Merchant Street, is Jenkin's Jacket Shop. Upon opening the door, you will be greeted by Jenkins, the owner and operator. Within his shop are thousands of jackets for almost any situation, from elaborate tuxedo-like coats, to Fisherman's Jackets with who knows how many pockets, to jackets that would never fit an ordinary humanoid, such as some as small as Fae, to some that might be a bit large for Giants. In addition, they are made from almost any type of material, from the richest suedes and velvets, to the roughest leathers, and even mail.
The back room, however, is more interesting. Jenkins has a good eye for his customers, and will escort anyone that looks a bit, well, shall we say, unusual, to the back room, where the Tailor, Sug, works at his machinery.
Those who know Tre'Volos well will recognize him immediately as one of the three members of the Triumvirate. He is in his element while working on clothing, and can size up potential customers without any type of measurements or specifications. He will almost always find something that would not only fit, but have a purpose for that customer in his part of the store, which is also home for thousands more jackets.
Thieves love his "Fisherman's Jacket", and it also sees use by almost any other class. Fighters can use it to store small items that they find. Wizards use it to store magical components. Clerics use it for items used with their healing abilities and spells. Guildsmen will buy one to store Guild supplies in. Nobles frequent his shop to get the latest fashions for use at ceremonies. Lodge members get their Lodge Regalia here. Even Commoners can find something reasonably priced for them. Customers can also have Sug make them an outfit to order. Although this seems like a job that might take weeks or longer, Sug can finish even the most opulent jacket in mere days.
This is due to Sug's magical abilities, which are enhanced by his equally magical equipment. Jackets can be worn by either males or females, and by any race that normally wears clothing.
When not in the shop, Sug is either in a Triumvirate meeting, or he is simply at home resting and sleeping. Jenkins is quite adept at taking orders for Sug when Sug is not in the shop.
