Jingo

Jingo, a tattooed man, lives in Delos, where he accompanies the tattoo artist, Vinci. In the year 450 AF, he served as the canvas upon whom ten finalist entries in a tattoo design competition (the grand prize of which was a permanent tattoo) were inked. Almost his entire body is covered in these adventurer-designed images, and a myriad of colours swirls together into a permanent mosaic upon his skin that leaves nary a spot of flesh uninked.

Jingo's Wares

Oaken mill - 7500gp
Oddly stylish in its simple efficiency, a large, cumbersome inkmill stands here. The mill itself is hewn entirely from solid oak and has been sanded to a smooth, refined finish. A winding handle is fixed atop the contraption and allows movement to either side, its inner-workings undoubtedly linked to the grinding gears within the wooden instrument. Four sturdy legs support the mill, and form the frame for a small, bronze plated opening at the bottom.
Sliver of red scorpion chitin - 10gp
The edges of this small sliver are all jagged, a result of the rough way that it was broken from the armoured exoskeleton of a giant red scorpion.
Lump of red clay - 10gp
This is a soft lump of red clay that feels smooth and malleable.
Small patch of lumic moss - 20gp
Small tendrils reach out from the foliose surface of this small patch of lumic moss. Tiny, thorn-like hairs protrude from the stem of each tendril as a reminder that this moss should be handled carefully.
Ink bladder - 20gp
Extracted from the corpse of a large squid, this ink bladder is a reservoir of the creature's natural excretion used for fending off predators. The liquid that fills the organic bladder gives the translucent skin a dark, blue sheen.
Sliver of yellow scorpion chitin - 40gp
The edges of this small sliver are all jagged, a result of the rough way that it was broken from the armoured exoskeleton of a giant yellow scorpion.
Pile of gold flakes - 135gp
Carefully scraped off a larger piece, these flakes of gold are small to be used in experiments that require just a bit of gold.
Pile of fish scales - 6gp
Glimmering faintly, this kaleidoscopic collection of coloured fish scales bear no distinguishable features to identify the fish from which they were removed. Each scale is rough and still bears the slightest of fishy odours.
Piece of buffalo horn - 18gp
Once attached to the head of a large buffalo, this broken horn is long and curved, with a sharp point at the tip.
Shark tooth - 36gp
Measuring almost three inches in length, both edges of this giant tooth are serrated from the root to the tip, testament to the deadly mouth from which it was extracted.
Wyrm tongue - 140gp
Having been removed roughly from the mouth of its owner, this tongue is forked at the tip and ends abruptly at the base with a jagged edge. Small patches of clotted blood discolour the surface of the tongue.
