The armory, called Vuk's Door, is a narrow-fronted shop of dark timber and pale stone, its sign showing an iron door borrowed from the mountain homeland of its first owners, though no mountains rise nearby. Inside, weapon racks line the walls, each blade tagged with its weight and balance. The air smells of oil, leather, and coal smoke; a small forge glows behind a half-wall, and a rack bell is wired to the counter's rear latch. Branka Vuk is a broad-shouldered human veteran with close-cropped gray hair, a missing left earlobe, and a habit of testing every purchase with a practiced thumb. She speaks plainly, repairs sound equipment before recommending replacements, and remembers customers who pay their tabs. For a party of level 5, she can arrange special orders, but keeps no powerful magic arms openly in stock.
