Baraek Brigson[1] is a fur trader in the Varrock Square (the centre of Varrock) who owns a fur stall, although you cannot steal from it. Baraek is also a member of the Phoenix Gang and plays a small role in the Shield of Arrav quest. If players wish to be in the Phoenix Gang, he must be bribed to reveal the location of their headquarters.
Baraek will purchase unnoted bear fur and fur for 12 coins each, and unnoted grey wolf fur for 120 coins each. If the player is wearing the Ring of Charos(a), he will pay 20 coins each for bear fur and fur, or 150 coins for each grey wolf fur. When selling any furs to him, he will buy them one at a time every game tick, not instantly.
He will also sell bear fur for 20 coins each. If the player doesn't have at least 20 coins on them, he'll lower his price to 18 coins, but he will not go any lower than that, saying that he has a family to feed.
