(12)

Simple quill, ink, and a few sheets of paper in a worn leather satchel. Useful for taking notes and copying simple spells.

None

A basic primer on local spirits: customs, signs of haunting, and common methods for polite dismissal. Thin volume with a faded silver sigil.

Grants advantage on Wisdom (Religion) or Intelligence (History) checks about common local spirits once per long rest (DM adjudicates).

A well-used but serviceable spellbook for a beginning wizard. Pages are a bit warped from damp but intact.

None

A glass lantern whose flame flickers a faint, cold blue. It does not burn fuel but hums faintly when spirits are near.

Emits light like a hooded lantern (30 ft bright, 60 ft dim). When within 30 ft of an incorporeal undead, the bearer has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks to notice it.

A small hardcover manual describing simple ritual protections and wards usable by folk without formal training.

Once per day, a reader who spends 10 minutes can create a temporary ward on a door (acts like the Alarm spell cast as ritual for 8 hours).

A worn map with Xs marking cemeteries, forgotten crypts, and houses with frequent poltergeist activity. Hand-annotated by Mirelle.

Grants a bonus to Survival or Investigation checks to locate listed sites or secret entrances within the town once per site.

A vial of pale silvery ink. When used to write, slightly glows where spirits have touched the surface before.

Can reveal invisible or incorporeal touches on a surface once (detects traces like a forensics tool) — functions like Speak with Dead's sensory component for surfaces; single use.

A comforting, illustrated story used to calm frightened townsfolk. Popular with innkeepers and nurses.

Reading aloud gives advantage on a single Charisma (Performance) check to soothe a frightened or panicked commoner.

A single-use scroll containing the 1st-level spell Protection from Evil and Good. Helpful against certain undead and spirits.

Functions as the spell when read by a spellcaster who can cast it. Non-spellcasters can use with an Arcana check () and the scroll is consumed regardless.

Fine nibs, colored inks, and tools to create neat illuminated letters and keep records of hauntings.

Grants advantage on checks to create convincing forgeries of simple documents (DM discretion).

A ledger filled with names and short notes of those who have died in the town over the past generation. Some entries are written in a hand that shimmered faintly when Mirelle copied it.

Once per long rest, spending 10 minutes reading an entry allows the reader to learn one useful fact about that person's last known location or relationships (+2 to relevant social checks for 1 hour).

Mirelle offers to repair or rebind books. Price varies by damage; small repairs are quick but major rebinding takes days.

If the book repaired has minor ghostly markings, Mirelle promises to neutralize them for an extra 5 gp.

Shop Atmosphere

“The shop's pages occasionally turn by themselves, and soft whispering can be heard in the stacks at dusk. Mirelle keeps a teacup empty on the counter for visitors 'from beyond'; she will offer it to patrons who seem eager to commune with the dead (and charge a small fee for facilitation). She greets newcomers in a melodic whisper and can sometimes be seen cataloguing silver-ink notes that only appear under moonlight.”
