Vardanis is a minor NPC in Act I of The Age of Decadence. Only the Drifter or Mercenary can encounter him, and it is optional in either case.
Vignette[ | ]
If your Background is Mercenary, you will automatically get the chance to accompany Vardanis to sell off Gracius's possessions after you fail to protect the latter from assassination. If your Background is Drifter, you only get the same opportunity if you (1) ask the innkeeper about finding work, then (2) claim you can handle yourself in a fight. In both cases you may buy a variety of gear from Vardanis before departing. See either of those Vignettes for further details.
