Stores are relatively simple. Simply choose a merchant type, and place the waypoint, then right click the waypoint, and choose Setup Store. It will walk you right through it.

Good. I think I'll work on the Slayers Only Store I made that proposition for. I will do my best to set it up that any potions and/or scrolls found at that store will come in sets of ten. I'll make a post in the other area about what regular items SHOULD be found in that store, so when I start actually keying it all in, I can make it look nice for those interested in plunking their money down. I'll fill you in on my progress through this thread. (And anyone else who would like to make suggestions or offer assistance, by the way.)

While making the store, I will more than likely need help in doing up some conversations for the storekeep, as well as the two other assistants that she'll have in the store. (All gnolls or flinds.) When constructing the people, I just have to set them to "Merchant" and "Plot" characters to make sure they don't attack anyone AND they are not slain by overambitious individuals, correct?

Setting them to plot will work, yes. Once you generate the waypoint that is the actual merchant, it will allow you to generate the main NPC, and a really basic convo. Just use the basic convo to get the store going, then you'll have an example to work off of to set what ever dialog you wish on it. You're going to find that stores with multiple potions are not really hard, but they are tedious, and don't forget, there may actually be cause to have an infinite number of stacked potions, but you may need single variants as well, since some players may not have the finances to buy a prestacked potion.
