Shop Atmosphere

“Open only at night from dusk to the witching hour; the storefront is a black glass alcove that only blooms into life when the streetlights flicker. Inside every surface is a riot of brightly colored neon: cyan sigils crawl along the counter, violet smoke coils from incense bowls, and the proprietor keeps a small column of humming mechanical moths that polish items. Vesperine refuses to sell certain high-lethality items to customers without a convincing backstory or proof of intent; bargains are conducted by neon-sign handshake (she waves a small finger-etched rune and the price changes). Accepts coin (pp/gp/sp/cp), rare tech-shards, or exotic components; prices shift slightly depending on the color of the lights that night. Beware: deals struck before the lanterns shift color are binding.”
