The Druid’s Grove—also called the Emerald Grove—is an Act One location with six listed traders: Arron, Auntie Ethel, Dammon, Mattis, Mol, and Volo. For the clearest starting points, look for Arron and Dammon in the Hollow, Mattis near X: 245 Y: 550, and Volo in or near the Sacred Pool. NPC access and stock can depend on story events and interactions.
All six Druid Grove merchants
The Emerald Grove is in the Wilderness during Act One. Its principal areas include the Hollow, Sacred Pool, Inner Sanctum, and Secluded Cove. The roster below distinguishes the merchants whose placements and roles are established from those whose exact position or stock is not specified.
| Merchant | Where to look | Role and useful details |
|---|---|---|
| Arron | The Hollow, near the entrance area | General trader. Listed notable items include Gloves of Missile Snaring and Hedge Wanderer Armour. His starting attitude is higher when a druid speaks to him, which improves prices. |
| Dammon | His forge in the Hollow | Tiefling smith and specialist trader. His later appearances depend on surviving the Grove’s events. |
| Mattis | Near X: 245 Y: 550 | Tiefling child trader with novelty and low-value goods; he may also offer a Tower-Shaped Key. Confronting him about Silfy can remove regular dialogue trade options, though the trade interface may remain accessible. |
| Auntie Ethel | Listed as a Grove trader; exact coordinates not stated (bg3.wiki Emerald Grove) | The Grove trader roster confirms her status, but a precise placement and specific stock are not established here. |
| Mol | Listed as a Grove trader; exact coordinates not stated (bg3.wiki Emerald Grove) | The Grove trader roster confirms her status, but a precise placement and specific stock are not established here. |
| Volo | In or near the Sacred Pool | Listed as a Grove trader. No reliable coordinates or inventory list are established here. |
Where to start looking
For general goods and smithing
Head to the Hollow first: Arron and Dammon are both there, but they serve different needs. Arron is the general trader; Dammon is the smith.
For Mattis and Volo
Mattis is the most precise location in the roster, near X: 245 Y: 550. For Volo, search the Sacred Pool area; the available placement is broad rather than a set of exact coordinates.

What can affect access or trade
- Story outcomes: Dammon’s later appearances depend on whether he survives the Grove’s Act One events.
- Mattis’s dialogue: Confronting him about Silfy can remove normal dialogue-based trade options, although the trade interface may still be available.
- Arron’s prices: His starting attitude is higher if a druid speaks to him, improving prices.
- Stock: The listed items are notable examples, not a guarantee of a complete or permanent inventory; stock and access can vary with interactions and story state.
