Biography
During the first part of the cake arc, John Mercy sold Claire some ingredients for her cake baking plan.

Shortly before the harvest festival, Penny woke him up one night in order to buy supplies so that she could mount a deer head as a decoration for the inn. He was less than please at being interrupted at night, but helped her anyway.

After the party's meeting with the council about the documents found during the Battle of Haven Cross, John Mercy secretly met with them in a warehouse behind the guild. He gave the party an unofficial job to go to Viren and find out what was going on as discreetly as possible. It was at this point that he also gave the party their tents.
