Shop Atmosphere

The shop smells faintly of iron and old paper. A thin line scored into the floor points toward a back alcove labeled 'Ledger' where names are kept. The proprietor plays a quiet game of reciting names from memory when customers haggle. All purchases over 100 gp must be paid before the words are read aloud. A faded sigil of a blood drop appears on any scrolls related to Bhaal if the patron has a hidden murderer's mark.
