A loose hooded cloak woven from bleached linen and fine goat hair. Its inner seams are reinforced for long journeys, and its hem is weighted to keep it from snapping in coastal winds.

The pale outer surface reflects direct sunlight, reducing discomfort from ordinary desert heat. It provides no mechanical protection against extreme heat without suitable water and rest.

A translucent turquoise silk veil with a narrow cobra-green border. It is fashionable among merchants, courtiers, and anyone wishing to avoid dust, sun, or unwanted recognition.

The veil breaks up facial features and glare, granting advantage on checks made to conceal the wearer's identity in a crowded, brightly lit marketplace, at the DM's discretion.

Tightly woven sailcloth treated with salt, oil, and desert wax. Sailors prize it for repairs, while caravan masters use it for lean-tos and emergency shelters.

Provides ordinary shade and light protection from blowing sand. It is not magical and can be damaged by fire or sharp weapons.

A compact two-person tent of tan canvas with turquoise tie cords. The seams are double-stitched, and the entrance flap bears a discreet maker's mark resembling a coiled serpent.

The fabric is treated against ordinary mildew and salt spray. It does not protect against magical weather or extreme storms.

A bolt of sand-colored cloth threaded with dull silver fibers. It is favored for caravan curtains, market stalls, and garments worn by wealthy travelers.

The metallic thread reflects much of the sun's glare, making interiors beneath it feel noticeably less oppressive.

Fine turquoise silk imported through the coastal ports. Veshek sells it by the bolt, though he privately reserves the most flawless lengths for important clients.

The fabric is light, breathable, and difficult to see through clearly from more than 20 feet away.

A broad tan awning embroidered with green serpentine lines. Small ceramic beads sewn into its edges catch the breeze and keep the cloth taut.

When properly erected, the awning creates a cool zone beneath it. Creatures resting under the shade feel several degrees of relief from the surrounding heat, but the awning does not reduce magical fire damage or prevent dehydration.

A carefully enchanted market awning made from silver-threaded linen. Its underside is patterned in cobra-green scales, and the enchantment is strongest when the cloth is stretched toward the open sky.

Once per dawn, the awning can create a gentle circulating breeze beneath it for 8 hours. It does not function in an enclosed space or when folded.

Two broad strips of pale cloth, impregnated with a mineral paste and stitched with green thread. Caravan guards use them to cover exposed skin while handling hot equipment.

The treated fabric resists scorching from ordinary sunlight and hot stone. Once exposed to open flame, the bands become unusable after 1 minute.

A coil of sturdy linen cord wrapped around a small wooden spindle. Each length is marked with colored knots indicating its approximate measure.

None. Veshek keeps these near the front counter as an inexpensive practical item.

A little pouch of pale desert powder used by merchants to freshen garments and remove the smell of travel. The bone scoop is carved in the shape of a tiny snake.

When rubbed into damp or oily fabric, the sand helps absorb moisture and reduce stains. It has no effect on magical substances.

A suspiciously heavy ceremonial canopy of layered tan, turquoise, and cobra-green cloth. Its embroidered panels depict marketplace authorities, old trade houses, and several symbols that do not appear in any official registry.

When raised, the canopy produces a broad area of comfortable shade and muffles ordinary conversation beneath it from creatures more than 30 feet away. The effect is nonmagical in appearance but is maintained by a minor enchantment.

A long turquoise banner with a cobra-green spiral and tan fringe. The dye is unusually vivid and remains bright despite salt air and harsh sunlight.

The banner's colors are recognized by local traders as a sign of a legitimate commercial gathering, though officials may demand proof of ownership.
Armor2

A sleeveless tan cloak lined with reflective cloth and cut to allow a scarf or veil beneath it. Its collar rises into a subtle hood shaped like the spread hood of a cobra.

While worn, the cloak grants advantage on one saving throw or ability check per long rest made to resist the effects of ordinary environmental heat. It offers no protection from magical heat or fire.

A sharply tailored sleeveless coat of tan cloth, lined in cobra-green and edged with turquoise piping. Veshek insists that every seam communicate rank, allegiance, or ambition.

The garment's reflective panels make the wearer conspicuous in direct sun but lend an air of wealth and official importance in the marketplace.

Lootable Stash

(6)

Where The Take Sits

Most valuables are split between the locked back-room ledger chest, the owner's work desk, and the heavy ceremonial canopy near the rear wall. The canopy conceals both reserved cloth and the disguised entrance to a narrow crawlspace connecting Suncoil Drapery to The Glass Cobra.

Security Check

Dexterity check using thieves' tools, with advantage for a careful plan that accounts for the hanging fabrics and the neighboring spice stall
DC 13

On Failure

A failed theft attempt may cause a stack of hanging cloth to collapse, alerting Veshek and the neighboring spice merchant. Veshek bars the front door, sends an assistant through the concealed crawlspace to warn The Glass Cobra, and publicly accuses the party of attempting to steal protected trade documents. If the failed check is by 5 or more, a concealed bell woven into the back-room curtain rings, bringing two marketplace wardens within 10 minutes.

Shop Atmosphere

Suncoil Drapery spills into the market street through layered displays of tan, turquoise, and cobra-green fabric, narrowing the passage beside The Glass Cobra. The neighboring spice merchant frequently argues with Veshek because incense smoke clings to expensive cloth and customers are forced to squeeze through the same bottleneck. Veshek publicly praises marketplace authorities and keeps official-looking notices framed near the entrance, but he secretly alters cloth orders to pass coded messages between dissident traders. His perfectionism is legendary: he will halt a sale to correct an uneven hem, reject a coin with a poorly stamped face, or rearrange an entire display because two shades of green are politically incompatible. The back room is packed with ledgers, measuring cords, folded sailcloth, and unfinished orders. A concealed crawlspace in the shared wall leads into The Glass Cobra, making the tavern both a source of gossip and a discreet emergency exit. Veshek's debts and connections touch many local NPCs through unpaid custom work, protective clothing supplied to caravan guards, and rumors hidden in ordinary trade records.
