Weapons5

A well-balanced steel longsword, crossguard polished and grip wrapped in leather. Reliable for front-line fighters.

A short, piercing blade favored by scouts and rogues. Light and easily concealed.

Single-handed axe forged from good iron. Heavy head and a solid haft—built to take and deliver punishment.

A fearsome two-handed axe. The head is hand-forged and well-balanced for sweeping strikes.

A heavy war crossbow with a seasoned wooden stock and a taut steel prod. Comes strung and sighted.

Armor3

A reinforced steel shield with rubbed leather facing and iron rim. Good for active combat.

AC +2

Overlapping metal scales riveted to a leather backing. Offers solid protection at some mobility cost.

AC +14

Tough leather armor with steel studs, cut and fitted for rugged use. Favored by scouts and rangers.

AC +12
Miscellaneous4

A small sealed stone and a vial of oil for keeping blades keen and clean.

Quick service to sharpen a blade, reseat loose fittings, and tamp down bent guards. Same-day turnaround if not busy.

Restores advantage to hit lost from a dull or badly chipped edge at the DM's discretion.

Repair of broken blades, dents in armor, replaced straps, re-forging of a small broken head. Price varies by material and extent of damage.

Can return a weapon/armor to serviceable condition; may impose a temporary penalty until full restoration is finished (several days).

Small iron rivets treated with anti-corrosive oil. Handy for field repairs and hinge fixes.

Miscellaneous1

A small black stone warm to the touch. Restoring a weapon with this stone infuses a minor temper—treats the weapon as +1 for one day per hour of polishing (maximum 8 hours).

Atk Temporary magical +1 to attack and damage for the duration given; the stone expends a minor charge per use (recharges at dawn with warm hearth nearby).
Miscellaneous1

A sturdy shield with a hammered star motif. A faint hum is felt when braced against an incoming blow.

AC +3Functions as a +1 shield. Once per day, as a reaction, grants the bearer advantage on a single Dexterity saving throw when struck by a spell or trap (resets at dawn).
Miscellaneous2

A balanced longsword whose edge gleams with a faint inner light. Forged with old dwarven tempering techniques and a whisper of magic.

Atk Counts as a magical weapon for overcoming resistances. Brenna offers a free polishing and minor rune inscription on purchase.

A narrow spearhead-shaped blade with a dark pitted finish. It takes a tempering that makes it particularly biting against clockwork and construct flesh.

Atk Deals an extra +1 damage to constructs and animated metal creatures (flat, not dice). Considered uncommon-to-rare due to specialized forging.
Miscellaneous1

Brenna will rework, resize, and restyle an existing piece—adding reinforcements, changing grips, or remaking plating. Time: days to weeks depending on complexity.

Custom work can add decorative runes, increased durability (DM fiat), or integrate small storage compartments for up to 1 lb. of items.

Shop Atmosphere

Brenna sings old dwarven hammer-songs while she works and always offers a cup of bitter forge-coffee to customers. She insists on testing every new blade on a suspended hay bale in the courtyard and will not tolerate rudeness toward her apprentice (a lanky halfling named Jory). She keeps a small iron cockatrice-foot charm nailed above the door to bring luck to travelers; she claims it's ornamental, but glances at it whenever a spellcaster passes by.
