| - The Shopkeepers are a group of adults who run the various shops in Old Bullworth Vale, Bullworth Town and New Coventry.
- Shopkeepers are NPCs who provide player characters with items and services at the cost of a certain amount of Taros or who will provide Taros to players in exchange for unwanted items. When players start the game, each player will have one weapon as well as the basic clothing that the player selected during Character Creation. Players also will have a Buttercup Nano equipped in the NanoCom. Players can purchase other items at the KND Treehouse, and other locations throughout the world. To get up to the Treehouse, a character can use any of the Jump Pads surrounding it. Upon reaching the Treehouse, a player can go up to a particular Shopkeeper and line up in front of that character. Most of the Shopkeepers have a holographic icon showing what type of items they sell. A shopping icon will appear when the player character is properly aligned. The player should click on the Shopkeeper and an interactive menu will appear. The player must click on the top icon to open the sales window. Once the store interface is open, players can buy items from the Shopkeeper. They should make sure you purchase Level 1 items at first, since they will not be able to equip themselves with anything higher on starting in the game. As the player character levels up, players will be able to equip the character with better and better gear. The player must click on an item to bring up an information window about it. To purchase an item, the player must click on the Buy button in the information window. If players don’t have enough Taros, the game will not let them purchase the item. Players can sell an item from their packs (on the right side of the screen) to the Shopkeeper as well. The player must click on the item in the pack. An item description window will pop up and show the player what the Shopkeeper will pay for it. If the player accepts the price, the player should then click the Sell button; otherwise, the player should click the Cancel button. For speedy transactions, players may also right click on any item to sell it automatically. If an item is sold by mistake, it can be bought back for exactly the same price that the Shopkeeper paid for it by clicking on the Buy Back tab and selecting the item to be retrieved. The item is available for repurchase for only a limited time, so players should make sure to buy it back quickly. To leave this screen (or any screen like it) the player must click the red button in the upper-right corner of the window. Shopkeepers can be Plumbers, KND Operatives, Urban Rangers, Dexbots, Mandroids, Candy Pirates, SACT agents, and Monkey Minions
