Well-Adjusted Al, previously known as Crazy Al, was an eccentric shopkeep who operated Well-Adjusted Al's General Store in the Eastway district of Baldur's Gate in the mid-to-late 14th century DR.[1]

I used to be called "Crazy Al," but therapy has convinced me that selling plate armor for three gold pieces and a small duck was no way to get ahead in business.
— Well-Adjusted Al[1]

Description[]

Al was a portly dark-skinned human male who wore flashy aquamarine clothes and tan pants.[1]

Possessions[]

Well-Adjusted Al's General Store stood across the street from the Low Lantern festhall, to the east from the ship,[1] on the corner of Stormshore Street, where it ended in the Stormshore Street Dock.[note 1][2] His establishment dealt in general goods and carried mundane bows, arrows, throwing axes, darts, slings, bullets, crossbows, bolts, and throwing knives. Al also offered magic item identification service for 100 gold coins.[1]

History[]

Sometime before the Year of the Gauntlet, 1369 DR, Al had a reputation for offering his goods for insanely low prices, such as a set of plate mail that regularly could cost hundreds of gold pieces, for the price of mere three coins and a duck. However, this insanity was cured in therapy, after which the merchant became known as Well-Adjusted Al.[1]
