The Unknown Initiate Adventurer

Location:
Outside of your first shop, on the street corner, there is a female NPC labeled as "Unknown".

Introduction:
This NPC will accept any weapon you give them. The quality score of the weapon given adds to their "Gear Quality" score. They currently have leather armor worth a total of 4 quality. If the adventurer has a two-handed weapon equipped, they can not take a shield. Once they have 40 total "Gear Quality" they will be available to be sent off to the first dungeon. After waiting around 2-3 days, they will bring back a box whose contents are decided by which dungeon they went to. Breaking open the box can reward you: Ore, Ingots, heated Weapon Heads, Gems, and the exclusive Socket Grip. note: if you give the NPC another weapon after the first one they will take it and drop the other one. the original weapon will have varying amounts of decrease in its quality. this happens when thNPCpc comes back from the dungeon as well except they don't drop their weapons

Success Chances:
If the NPC goes to either dungeon with minimum gear quality, the adventure may fail. If the NPC succeeds, they will return with a Crate and say the line "This is all I could find.". On rare occasions with more loot than normal, they may say, "I brought back loot."

Uses:
The Unknown Adventurer NPC can be used for skipping tiers of metals, collecting ores, or getting free grips. She can also give you Gems, making them a renewable resource.

Bugs:
If you give the NPC a one-handed weapon and attempt to swap it out for a greatsword of any kind, they may drop the one-handed blade for the Greatsword, and then take it back before the Player Character can remove it from the "swap zone". This can lead to losing all quality in both weapons.
