Winston's Store The World of Greyhawk & The World of Greyhawk Wiki The current year for our World of Greyhawk campaign is set during 579CY. Inspired By Gary Gygax

The sign hanging above the door of the adventurers' outfitters, Winston's Store in Portown, reads "Solid Goods at Honest Prices". Inside a strange variety of unusual goods can be found amongst the normal wares, all at outrageous prices. The store is the largest independent shop in town.

Winston arrived in Portown around five years ago with a large chest of gold coins that he invested into his new mercantile business, and he has made a success of things. He is a canny businessman who never knowingly overpays or undercharges. He does business with sailors, adventurers, and those who need "solid goods" as he often says. Winston is known to have a few maps of the local area and those who intend to explore often consult with him for guidance. Winston is tall for a halfling at three-and-a-half feet, and likes to keep his short blonde hair and moustache immaculately trimmed.

He has a flair for the ostentatious, and likes to wear gold jewellery and buttons on his collared jackets. Unlike most halflings he does not go barefoot, but rather wears a pair of expensive, supple leather boots.

Whilst often suggesting ways that the law can be bent for the profit of all, he never seems to overstep the line. Since arriving in Portown, Winston has built a successful business and has become known as the go-to person for anyone wishing to explore the region around Portown.

Winston owns and operates Winston's Store, the large building one passes on their way to the graveyard or temple in Portown. He does business with sailors, adventurers, and citizens looking for solid goods at honest prices, a phrase that he was adopted as the store's motto. Among his wares are maps of the marshes outside of Portown, and those that seek to explore or travel through the area know that the halfling has experience navigating the area and consult him for guidance.

Unbeknownst to the populace, Winston's knowledge of the surrounding region comes from his experience as an outlaw and rogue, the lands around Portown acting as his hunting ground. After a successful raid on an army payroll caravan netted him enough money to open a business, he went straight and opened Winston's Store. With Loyalist and Traditionalist tension rising in town, Winston is on edge from the increased presence of law enforcement in Portown. He worries that his involvement in that fateful heist will come to light, ruining his reputation and livelihood.
