Dealer Human Expert 1 Rogue 3

Dealers are purveyors of drugs, toxins, poisons, and all manner of proscribed and questionable alchemical substances. Operating from hidden laboratories and kitchens, They import and  concoct their wares to rule the streets through the power of their sweet seduction.  (See drugs and addiction for a variety of drugs dealers might push.) Dealers  can be used as low-level poisoners and assassins, traveling charlatans or snake-oil  salesmen, or even semihonest alchemists, apothecaries, and street physicians.

A corrupt dealer may work together with a slaver and two prostitutes to lure and kidnap victims (CR 6) or run a gang of four beggars and four pickpockets (CR 7). A dealer might partner with an unscrupulous shopkeep (CR 4) or sleazy barkeep (CR 5), or may be engaged in illicit business with a noble  scion (CR 5). A dealer might also be accompanied by two street  thugs for protection (CR 5). An honest dealer might be apprenticed to a hedge wizard (CR 5).
