The only way to sell it to him is by typing \"Sell magic plate armor\".\nHis neighbor in Thais is [[Frodo]], innkeeper of the Frodo's Hut, which is clearly an [[Allusions#Samwise Gamgee|allusion]] to the J.R.R. Tolkien's novel [[wikipedia:The Lord of the Rings|The Lord of The Rings]] where [[Frodo]] and Sam are the main plot characters. He was the first NPC to see the Tibian light of day.\nPart of the [[Sam's Old Backpack Quest]], the [[Knight Outfits Quest]], and mission 9 of [[What a Foolish Quest]].",
