Skeleton Merchant

The Skeleton Merchant is an NPC that sells items; he is found in the Underground and Cavern layers. He spawns randomly, similar to a bound NPC. Enemies will not spawn near any players close to him. He will not move into a vacant house, and will despawn when off screen. He will also throw bones to fend off nearby enemies.

His stock changes at 4:30 AM everyday and he does not need to respawn for it to do so. Unlike other NPCs, the Skeleton Merchant does not have a map icon. Also, if a player has equipped the Lifeform Analyzer, it will not show if the Skeleton Merchant is nearby. Using a Hunter Potion is the recommended method for finding him.
