New Feierland Merchants: Librarium & Scriptorian; Artificer & Tinker

Two more exciting merchants and their associated services and trappings. The Librarium has some useful little bits and pieces for helping to generate random books. Between this and a table of random inspirations, books are no longer a problem. Much rejoicing. Enjoy!

17 (or more) New Feierland Merchants to come! Next up... I'm not sure. Maybe some weapons and armour or something.
