The Demolitionist is an NPC/ja vendor that will spawn once the following criteria have been met:

If the Demolitionist is killed, he will only respawn if the above conditions are met again. This means an explosive must be placed in the player's inventory again. Having explosives stored in chests/ja or other containers will not fulfill the requirement.

On the Desktop version Desktop version, Console version Console version, and Mobile version Mobile version, the Demolitionist will lob Grenade/jas at nearby enemies to defend himself, which deal 20 / 30 / 35 damage at the start of the game.

Moreover, on the Desktop version Desktop version, Console version Console version, and Mobile version Mobile version, NPCs/ja including the Demolitionist will gain various stat increases/ja as the player progresses.

Items sold

Note: All item prices can be decreased by equipping a Discount Card or Greedy Ring(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions). On the Desktop version Desktop version, Console version Console version, and Mobile version Mobile version, prices can also be higher or lower based on the NPC's happiness level.

Notes

  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) The Demolitionist will replace the Guide/ja as the starting NPC in the secret seed/ja "For the worthy/ja".
  • The Demolitionist's weapons – Grenades/ja – are surprisingly powerful, considering how early-on he may spawn in the game. Thus, he can be a great help during Blood Moon/jas.
  • Explosives/ja, despite their name and crafting recipe, do not fulfill the demolitionist's requirement to move in.

  • Trivia

    • The Demolitionist's appearance seems to be based on dwarves from many games, films, and works of literature. He is significantly shorter than other NPCs and has a beard. His dislike of the Goblin Tinkerer also aligns with fictional rivalries between Dwarves and Goblins. Furthermore, his mining helmet, lantern, and the fact that he sells explosives/ja fits the trope of dwarves preferring underground environment/jas. This is further proved by his Party-exclusive quote, one of his quotes while it is raining, his Happiness quote while in the Caverns, and his Bestiary entry. Several of his names are also references to dwarf characters in fiction:
      • Beldin is from the five-book fantasy epic The Belgariad.
      • Durim is a corruption of Durin, a dwarven king mentioned in the books of English writer J.R.R. Tolkien.
      • Fikod and Urist are generic dwarven names from the indie video game Dwarf Fortress.
      • Gimli is a reference to the epic high-fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings.
      • Morthal is a name of a city surrounded by swamps in the action role-playing video game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
      • Tordak (or Tordek) is a generic dwarf name in the fantasy tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons.
    • The Demolitionist used to have the sprite for the Arms Dealer in the pre-release version of the game.Verify
    • Though he is depicted in a painting/ja called "American Explosive", the painting's name and appearance are a parody of the painting American Gothic, rather than an indication of his origin.
    • (Old-gen console and 3DS versions) In one of his quotes, he calls Ebonstone/ja "ebonrock".
    • The quote "Hey, could you sign this Griefing Waiver?" is referring to the term griefing used in online, multiplayer video games to describe the act of deliberately irritating and harassing other players with actions such as destroying buildings.
    • His Blood Moon quotes indirectly reference the fact that Clown/jas carry explosives.
    • There appears to be a rivalry between the Demolitionist and the Arms Dealers, judging by lines of dialog from both the Demolitionist and the Arms Dealer that throw shade at one another, such as, "Don't bother with <name of Arms Dealer>, I've got all you need right here."
    • The いきものずかんいきものずかん entry for the Demolitionist: "Tread carefully around this dwarf. The Demolitionist is an explosive fanatic and sells dangerous things that go 'Boom!'"
