Halfhock's Pawnshop is a High-Volume Pawnshop and Moneylending Office. It serves the district's desperate and the daring, from laborers pawning their tools for a week's rent to adventurers looking to liquidate found jewelry and silver plate. It offers immediate cash loans, short-term collateral storage, and a No-Questions-Asked buying policy for precious metals and gems. This is a sturdy, two-story stone building with a heavily reinforced facade that radiates a sense of cluttered, paranoid security. The entrance is a narrow, reinforced iron door with a sliding viewing slit and a complex series of external bolts.
