Trader Location
So far it looks like the trader will never spawn on the main island.
Meaning you'll have to make yourself a raft to get to another island.
When arriving at an island check your map and you should see the trader icon appear.
Most of the time you can find them in the Black Forest biome.
You may have to battle your way through some enemies at first but the trader will be surrounded by runes to ward them off once there.
It's also worth making a base nearby and setting up a portal so that you can buy and sell easily.

Trader Items
You can find a table showing all the items sold by traders below.
Item | Coins | Description |
|---|---|---|
Yule Hat | 100 | A red cap in the style of house gnomes |
Dverger Circlet | 620 | A portable perpetual light source for the dungeon explorer |
Megingjord | 950 | Gives the wearer superhuman strength |
Ymir Flesh | 120 | The earthy remains of the giant Ymir |
Fishing Rod | 350 | Standard issue Dvergr fishing rod |
Fishing Bait x50 | 15 | Common Dvergr fishing bait. Fishing rod sold separately |
These items aren't necessary to buy but they will help a lot when it comes to combat and dungeons.
The Fishing Rod is also a great source of food from the beginner methods.
The Circlet is a great tool to use when mining or going underground in general with low light sources.
Megingjord is great for combat of course but it's main appeal is an extra 150 weight capacity to your inventory.
Of all the items be sure to get the Megingjord as soon as you can.
Selling Items
To sell items to the vendor press the right lower button in the sell/buy menu.
Items which have a 'Valuable' tag are intended solely to be sold.
Some of these items include those found in chests such as rubys, ambers, and pearls.
