A small stitched pamphlet explaining the five daily practices observed by worshippers of the Moonlit Faith — prayer posture, timings, brief meditations, and commonly used supplications.

None. Useful as a reference for roleplaying, ritual timing, or when attempting to comfort or instruct a believer.

A neatly scribed book of prayers, brief theological meditations, and liturgies used in daily worship and communal services. Inked with faint silver leaf to catch moonlight.

Grants advantage on Religion checks made to recite or explain the listed prayers if read aloud beforehand.

A thick bound sermon collection focusing on practical ethics: charity, hospitality, and community cohesion. Often used by imams and community leaders.

Useful as evidence or aid in persuading townsfolk; grants +2 to Persuasion checks when quoting or applying its teachings in social encounters among faithful adherents.

A compact logbook for travelers on religious journeys — contains spaces to note stops, spiritual reflections, and blessings received along the road.

When used to record a night’s travel and a short prayer, it grants the holder +1 to Wisdom saving throws against effects of exhaustion once per long rest.

A bound manual describing a three-day fasting ritual observed by desert clergy to seek visions or clarity. Includes safe practices and timings.

If the character successfully completes the fast as described (GM adjudicates), the final dawn grants them a single divination-style insight — roleplay or a single question answered truthfully by the DM in a non-mechanical way (or grant advantage on one Intelligence or Wisdom check).

A parchment map showing the safest caravan routes, known shrines, waterholes, and where seasonal winds reveal hidden landmarks.

Grants +2 to Survival checks to navigate the desert when followed accurately; some landmarks are spiritual and may have unique encounters.

Small wax slips inscribed with short blessings. Frequently embedded in doorframes or burned at shrines.

When burned during a short ritual (5 minutes), each tablet grants a tiny morale boost: +1 to next saving throw vs. fear or compulsion. Single-use.

A folio of hymns and chant notations used in evening services. Includes performance notes for ritual instruments.

When sung as part of a ritual, performers gain advantage on Charisma (Performance) checks to calm or inspire an audience.
Miscellaneous3

A string of thirty-three beads carved from polished agate. Worshippers use them to count prayers and meditative recitations.

Once per day, while silently passing beads and reciting a short invocation (1 minute), the wielder regains hit points and gains advantage on the next Wisdom (Insight) check made within the next hour.

A small brass lantern etched with prayer symbols. Emits a soft silver light when lit.

When lit (takes an action), the lantern sheds dim light in a 20-foot radius and grants advantage on passive Wisdom (Perception) checks for creatures who consider it a sacred light or familiar symbol. Once per long rest, the bearer can spend 10 minutes in quiet prayer next to the lantern to end one condition of being frightened.

A small bronze disk stamped with a prayer motif. Held in the hand during grief counseling or funerary rites.

Once per day, when held while reciting a short passage from a funerary rite (1 minute), the user can grant one creature within 5 feet advantage on their next saving throw vs. being frightened or charmed for 1 hour.
Miscellaneous1

A single-use scroll containing a prayer that summons a still pool of clear water (creates a 5-foot-diameter pool with enough fresh water for several people).

Equivalent to the Create or Destroy Water spell (or similar homebrew utility). Usable once; if the reader is not a cleric or cannot cast the spell, a Arcana check is required to use the scroll.
Miscellaneous1

A small corked vial of powdered incense derived from desert resins and saffron. Burned during prayer to aid focus.

When burned for 10 minutes in a 10-foot radius, creatures who spend that time in meditation gain +1 to Wisdom saving throws and checks for the next hour. Can be used once (single brief ritual).
Miscellaneous1

A woven rug of dyed camel-hair with a reinforced underside that resists sand and heat. Foldable and easy to carry.

AC +1When laid out and used for a 10-minute prayer or meditation, provides a bonus to short rest hit point recovery for those who use it while praying (represents comfort and focus).
Miscellaneous1

A rarer volume detailing festival rites, funerary prayers, and marriage blessings of the Moonlit Faith. Heavily annotated by a previous scholar.

Provides advantage on Persuasion and Religion checks when officiating or intervening in rites described within (GM discretion).
Miscellaneous1

Basic tools and thread for repairing books — includes a bituminous adhesive made to resist fine sand intrusion.

Allows a character with proficiency in Calligrapher's or Smith's tools to repair a damaged book or scroll in half the usual time.
Miscellaneous1

A prayer scroll invoking protection for travelers. When read, the caster bestows a minor protective aura on a willing party.

Functions like the Aid spell (increasing max and current HP by 5 for up to 8 hours) but on a smaller scale: +3 hit points for up to 8 hours to up to six creatures. Single-use.

Shop Atmosphere

Imra insists that all purchases of prayer beads or ritual materials be accompanied by a short blessing (free) — she mumbles the blessing aloud and expects the buyer to at least nod respectfully. She refuses to sell copies of certain sacred texts to soldiers carrying banners of belligerent warlords and keeps a ledger of pilgrims who have stayed at the 'Crescent & Quill' more than three nights. The shop smells faintly of incense and old vellum; during the late afternoons, Imra draws a brass screen so the books cool in the shade while she teaches children to write in elegant script.
