Shopkeepers tend shops. They are relatively tough for low level characters and therefore excel at preventing shoplifting.
Shopkeepers are generated with (1000 + 30*d100) zorkmids[1], a skeleton key, and some or all of a wand of striking, a potion of healing, a potion of extra healing, and a wand of magic missile (a d4 is rolled and that many items are generated starting from the beginning of that list)[2].
Should a character die in the hands of a shopkeeper, or be killed while there's an angry shopkeeper around, any possible Bones files will be generated with the player's grave empty - the possessions are all inherited by the shopkeeper, who must be killed in order to search the loot.
