A well-balanced longsword forged from river-forged steel. Reliable and true.

A shortbow of seasoned yew with sinew backing. Light and accurate within short ranges.

Slightly steadied by an engraved sight — +1 to ranged attack checks made at short range (flavor; no mechanical bonus beyond DM fiat)

A +1 longsword with a bladeward of stored emberwork. The edge faintly warms the hand of its wielder.

Atk Once per short rest, you can ignite the blade for 1 minute, causing an extra fire damage on hit and shedding bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet. Requires attunement.

A warhammer etched with protective runes; it hums when enemies nearby are hostile.

Atk On a critical hit, the runes flare and the target must succeed on a Con save or be stunned until the end of its next turn (usable once per long rest).

A sleek shortsword forged in a collaborative ritual with a bound shadow spirit. Its edge dulls planar darkness.

Atk Deals an extra radiant damage to undead and creatures from the Shadowfell. While drawn, dim magical darkness within 10 ft. is suppressed (does not dispel). Requires attunement.

A longbow reinforced with a lattice of eldritch fibers, granting steadier shots and reach.

Atk Arrows fired from this bow ignore up to 3 points of cover (flavor for piercing weak barriers). Once per short rest, the wielder can fire a silenced arrow (no sound beyond a whisper). Requires attunement.

A heavy polearm whose haft bears a sigil that hums with distant music. The blade phases faintly at the edge.

Atk On hitting, you may choose to deal psychic damage instead of slashing. Once per long rest, you can cast the spell calm emotions () centered on yourself. Requires attunement.

A balanced glaive stamped with an instructor's mark. Ideal for militia and trainees.

Well-balanced for teaching: grants a +1 circumstance bonus to disarm or trip attempts during training scenarios (flavor).

A dagger with an azure chip in the pommel. It thrums faintly when thunderstorms are near.

Atk Once per short rest you can cast fog cloud centered on yourself as a bonus action (no components). On a successful hit while wet or in rain, deals an extra lightning damage.

A masterbalanced throwing dagger that returns to the wielder's hand after being hurled.

When thrown, the dagger immediately returns to the thrower's hand at the end of the attack (no action).
Miscellaneous4

A leather quiver stocked with 20 iron-tipped arrows.

A compact kit for sharpening and oiling blades; keeps weapons in peak condition.

When used during a short rest, gives the wielder advantage on the next weapon maintenance check (flavor)

A voucher for a master sharpening and the application of a minor rune: grants a minor, temporary magical edge.

When used, grants the weapon +1 to attack rolls for 24 hours (nonstacking with true magic). Can be applied to non-magical weapons only.

A viscous black oil distilled from elemental soot. Smears on metal to grant temporary resistance to rust and minor planar staining.

Applied to a weapon or piece of armor: gives advantage on checks to resist corrosion and a bonus to stealth checks involving metal clinking for 8 hours (flavor).

Shop Atmosphere

The shop smells faintly of ozone and hot metal; Maerwyn hums a tuneless melody while working and occasionally speaks to the tools as if they were apprentices. Weapons in display occasionally shift position overnight as if trying on their sheaths; Maerwyn insists it's the 'aether settling.' Bargains are often sealed with a small ritual (a pinch of iron dust and a whispered line) that the proprietor performs for free for trustworthy-looking buyers.
