A glistening, recently caught tilapia. Best eaten within a day; sold wrapped in palm leaves.

A common meal; locals often tuck a tiny fish scale in coin pouches for luck.

A strip of stripers cured in coarse Nile salt. Keeps for weeks and restores morale on the road.

Counts as a single ration for most days of travel.

Thin strips of fish smoked and sun-dried with spices. Lightweight and filling.

Keeps for months; trading staple among caravaners and boatmen.

Rendered oil from Nile fish; burns cleanly in an oil lamp, with a faint briny scent.

Can be used as lamp oil or to make a slick surface when poured.

A simple, well-woven cane rod, braided line, and a handful of hooks suitable for river fish.

A person trained in fishing adds this kit to their equipment; regular maintenance extends life.

A sealed wooden barrel filled with well-salted fish — a favored export to inland markets and caravans.

Valuable trade good; can be used as barter for larger purchases or to feed a small crew.

A tiny scarab carved from mother-of-pearl and strung on braided reed. Popular with locals as a good-luck charm.

No true magic, but many sailors swear it keeps their nets full.

A carved scarab mounted on a cord, set with a single iridescent fish scale. Said to be blessed by a minor river-priest.

When worn, grants a modest +1 circumstance bonus to Swim and Survival checks related to rivers and fishing once per day (subject to GM ruling).

A small, carefully pickled fish preserved in spices and wrapped in thin linen — commonly used as an offering at shrines to river deities.

Useful as a ritual component for rites honoring local water spirits or as a gift to river priests; may earn goodwill from cults and shrines.

Stout rope woven from recycled fishing nets. Slightly rough but very strong; standard length is 50 feet.

The rope's origin (net fibers) makes it slightly slick when wet; holds well for tying boats and cargo.
Weapons1

A circular weighted net about 3 meters across, reinforced at the rim for repeated use.

Used like a net weapon: entangles a struck creature (roleplay/GM adjudication). Not meant for prolonged combat but excellent for capturing fleeing small creatures or making a messy escape.
Potions1

A small tin of poultice made from pressed seaweed, a drop of fish oil, and healing herbs. Applied to bruises and shallow wounds.

Heal 1 HPHeals a minor wound (restores 1 HP) and soothes infection risk for a day; not a replacement for proper healing spells or medical care.

Shop Atmosphere

The shop smells warmly of brine and smoked fish. Merenet hums ancient river songs while she works and stamps a tiny fish-scale mark on every sale — locals see it as a seal of freshness. She always sets aside a cheap trinket for children and can usually tell you which side of the river the best bite is that day. She speaks in proverbs tied to the Nile and will barter spare labor for barrels of salt or useful trade favors rather than coins.
