as the calling object.   Then adjust selling prices based on the Persuade total

of the NPC and the PC, the buy prices are adjusted based on the Persuade skill

of the two parties alone.  Also, if the calling player is a Half Orc it adjusts

prices up a further 10 percent, and buy price down a further 5 percent.*/
