NPC's

GRIFTAH
Not only does he sell wonderful useless items, he also caused controversy and was banned for a while from Shatratt, because players were complaining his items did not do what they advertised. These players were wrong. Take for instance a look at:
Marvelous Madstone of Immortality
"This anchors your spirit to the world, allowing you to come back from the most dreadful of demises once your essence returns to where you perished!"
When you wear this, you WILL indeed find your body back when you are dead. The fact that you can also find your body back when not wearing this item, is a minor detail, in my opinion.
Take a peek at the jewelery section of this blog to see what other indispensable amulets he sells.

"PLUCKY" JOHNSON
This NPC is a chicken in Shimmering Flats. Type /chicken emote while clicking him, he will transform into a human and wave at you.

Why they need to be in totally remote area's is absolutely beyond me. There is even one in the south west corner of Aszara, in a little house on a cliff overlooking the sea. I wouldn't be surprised if I was his first customer ever.
