"RED VARDO TRADERS OF VALLAKI

An announcement, for all our loyal customers and respected clients.

We are proud to announce the grand reopening of our services building, located in the Market District of Vallaki beside the Broken Bell Inn.

While this will mean the cessation of business carried out in merchant stalls outside of the Grey City, it also means prompt delivery of goods purchased, more regular business hours, and the gradual expansion of what the Red Vardo Traders can offer.

Keep your eyes peeled for future notices and flyers, and look for signs signifying that our Services Building is open for business.

- Quartermaster Orsolya Haraszti"

To the good people of Vallaki,

Know that we exist to support the Grey City's vibrant and thriving merchant community and encourage trade both domestic and foreign along one of Barovia's most vital arteries for commerce, Old Svalich Road. We know it is critical that merchants, be they outlanders interested in conducting lawful and honest deals as they peddle and sell off their wares or local artisans seeking to promote their own crafts, feel safe and able to do their business without fear of being harassed or harried.

To this end, we denounce both the local man DOMINIK and his outlander sellsword accomplice DUNCAN; the former made unwelcome advances of a lewd and lascivious nature against a merchant belonging to the Solarium named Senna; when Dominik's advances were rebuffed, the latter would commit assault and grievously wound this poor woman at Dominik's behest.

We who belong to the Red Vardo Traders' Vallaki branch not only condemn these men publicly for what they have done, but also no longer have an interest in doing business with them ourselves. As Captain, I use my authority to see them blacklisted, with our goods and services no longer being offered to them. We hope that the other mercantile organizations and trading costers doing business in Barovia follow our example and do the same.

- Captain Orsolya Haraszti, R.V.T.

[Better Dread than Dead]

To the good people of Vallaki,

Duncan has, in our opinion, shown contrition. He did not know the full extent of what was happening between Dominik and Senna, and acted as he believed honor dictated. As such, he is back in good standing with the Red Vardo Traders and he is once again free to purchase our goods and make use of our services.

- Captain Orsolya Haraszti, R.V.T.

Introducing the All-New "Exceptional Bags" from Red Vardo Traders

The Red Vardo Traders of Vallaki are thrilled to introduce our latest creation: the all-new "Exceptional Bags." With a fresh design that combines elegance and functionality, these bags are a testament to our unwavering commitment to providing you with top-quality products.

We understand the importance of carrying your items with ease and style, which is why we have spared no effort in crafting these exceptional bags. Each detail has been meticulously considered to provide you with a product that exceeds your expectations in both functionality and fashion.


The current market conditions have presented challenges in terms of higher costs of materials and shipment. As a result, we find ourselves compelled to make a minor adjustment to the pricing. We have reluctantly made the decision to raise the price of our exceptional bags by one thousand fangs. We want to assure you that this decision was not made lightly, and we have done our best to minimize the impact on our valued customers. Despite the price adjustment, we firmly believe that the value you will receive from our exceptional bags far outweighs the slight increase.

Thank you for choosing Red Vardo Traders.
