Thick, cream-colored parchments rolled and tied with hemp — good for copying spells, notes, or saving a family recipe.

A goose quill, a small vial of black ink (waterproof-ish), and a cloth. Elias insists the quill is 'good for cursive'.

A well-thumbed booklet of planting dates, moon phases, and a scribbled protective rhyme Elias swears keeps hail at bay.

When read aloud during a storm, grants advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks to predict weather for 24 hours (DM adjudication).

A hastily sketched map of nearby farmlands, common footpaths, a rickety bridge, and a small hollow Elias claims has 'good berry'.

Contains a rumor tag: 'Old standing stone hides a flask' (may lead to a small side adventure).
Miscellaneous8

A tightly rolled scrap of vellum that, when read aloud, provides a faint guiding touch to a skill check.

Functions as the Guidance cantrip (single use).

A neat scroll with a simple healing charm. Elias keeps a couple at the ready for barn accidents.

Heal 1 HPCure Wounds cast at 1st-level (use caster's spellcasting attack roll where appropriate). Heals + spellcasting ability modifier (standard Cure Wounds rules).

Hand-lettered runes around a light blue glyph. Elias uses it to check for cursed seeds more than arcane relics.

Detect Magic (standard spell; lasts up to 10 minutes concentration).

A faint scent of straw and oats clings to this scroll. Elias wrote it to ask the old hound where the chickens went.

Acts as Speak with Animals for 10 minutes.

Sewn with green thread; when read it smells faintly of recently-turned earth. Useful for catching pests—or foes.

Entangle (area control as per spell).

Inscribed with feather-like flourishes. Elias insists every scythe-wielder keep one when climbing haylofts.

Feather Fall for up to five falling creatures.

A careful, formal script. Elias reserves these for when livestock comes down with a stubborn sickness.

Lesser Restoration (cures one disease or one condition).

Edges sprinkled with a pale dust. Will grant stealth to those walking through fields and hedgerows under moonlight.

Pass without Trace (adds +10 to stealth checks to group for up to 1 hour).
Miscellaneous1

A small piece of parchment folded into a corn-kernel shape and inked with a protective rune. Hung above doorways, it keeps vermin and minor curses at bay.

AC +1Gives +1 to saving throws vs. disease and minor charm effects while within the house (folk remedy; DM discretion).

Shop Atmosphere

Elias Vellum greets customers like an old neighbor: he smells faintly of oatmeal and ink, keeps a basket of eggs by the counter as barter, and will trade a discount for fresh produce or a story of the road. He often hums farming songs while writing and will loudly bless any scroll sold for 'field use' (to the mild embarrassment of city visitors). The shop walls are hung with pressed herbs, seed packets, and a chalkboard listing 'Today's breezes' — his humorous weather notes. Elias refuses to sell scrolls containing violent curses but is pragmatic about useful, non-lethal magic for a hardworking life.
