Shady Sam

Shady Sam
Sam is the handiest merchant you'll meet on your stealth-based adventures until you have access to the fences in the Thieves' Guild. He has a seemingly inexhaustible supply of lockpicks, and is always obliged to sell his wares to all who find him.

Finding Shady Sam
Shady Sam is quite easy to track down by the adventurer, but will bolt at the sight of any officers of the law. He can be found outside the walls of the Imperial City. Start at the main gate, and follow the walls northward until you spot him.
