The Shadow of Avarice is depicted as a pig-faced man pushing a peddler's cart, hand always close to his scales. It is said that Avarice appears to those in need, and that his cart always has an item a person desperately wants. And he will sell it to you...if you can pay his price. And his price is always, always just a bit higher than you can pay. He can be bargained with, loves to haggle, but rest assured that he will always come out the better of any deal you make with him.
