Appearances	Dragon Age: Inquisition

The so-called "Invisible Merchant" is a merchant in Dragon Age: Inquisition; the stall can be found in Skyhold.

Background

This merchant sells weapons, weapon upgrades, armors, crafting materials, weapon schematics, weapon upgrade schematics, armor schematics and recipes in Skyhold. The merchant is located in the lower courtyard near the Skyhold stables and fast travel marker. The stall can be found just to the left of Farris The Representative.

Involvement

The Invisible Merchant's stall and wares are unlocked and will appear in Skyhold following the completion of the war table operation Opening the Roads. There is not an actual character added upon completion the operation.

Note: The Invisible Merchant's stall represents a satellite operation for merchants found across Thedas. Only one merchant's wares are represented at any given time. Each time Skyhold is entered or a game is loaded the merchant represented is randomly selected. If all of a particular merchant's items have been purchased, the Invisible Merchant will represent the merchant in the same fashion without any wares.

With the acquisition of the Short List Inquisition perk, additional items are added as special offers. These offers are available randomly each time the Inquisitor enters the map. If any special offers are available only one offer will be available at a time. The offer will always listed first in its category:

Bugs

• The Short List Inquisition perk seems to have an unexpected interaction with the war table operation Opening the Roads. The operation must be completed prior to obtaining the perk thus allowing for the merchant's stall to physically appear in Skyhold. If the perk is acquired prior to completing the operation, then the merchant's stall will remain invisible indefinitely, and may also potentially prevent the merchant's menu from being interacted with.
