Description
The small set of corrals and stables along the western edge of The The South Corridor belong to John Keterina, referred to as Honest John - ‘tis odd but true that John lives up to his name. He normally has some twenty older horses available for sale, and all of them are previously owned - many in the class of belonging to the “little old lady from Benson’s Corners who only rode it to temple on Thursday”, and few younger than 15 years. Most are high quality horses (add 25 to the die roll for quality, but 101-125 reads as Good, not Superb), and all are saddle broken at the minimum (unbroken reads as broken but untrained).
John is willing to dicker and will offer good deals on the horses he has, since keeping them in feed and curry combs can be an expensive proposition (he does take very good care of the animals on his lot). Unfortunately, while John is quite honest in his dealings and prices, the manner in which he hypes his customers is reminiscent of a California used car salesman, and the age of the horses causes people to think in terms of the horse dying in the first ten miles. Still, he does a fair business, and many of his customers are repeat sales.
