=== Channel Divinity: Market Manipulator ===
Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to understand the complex dealings of the free market
While in a shop, you can channel your divinity to gain information that would usually only be known by the most market savvy around. For 1 minute, you may ask the DM any question about an item, or multiple if you are quick enough, in relevance to the market. You can ask things such as local price, global price, is this item defective, are there other stores selling for cheaper, does this merchant have other stores, ect. Then, using this information, you can try to haggle down the price, and when doing so, roll persuasion with advantage and add +1 for each good argument made.
