Miscellaneous5

A sturdy journal of stitched leather and thick paper. Bramblecog stamps a tiny floral gear symbol on the inside cover.

Deep green-black ink infused with a pinch of powdered copper — excellent for permanence and conductive inks used with simple arcane circuits.

Conductive when used in mechanical-ink runes (DM may allow as material for simple artificer crafts).

A basic writing quill and a tiny brass stylus for etching; comes in a small leather pouch.

Ten fine sheets of vellum-quality parchment. Resistant to ordinary water and smudging when used with Ironleaf Ink.

A brass bookmark engraved with a floral gear; wind it and it will slip gently to mark the page and whisper a chime when you return.

Can store a single short note folded into it; chimes softly when the owner opens the book.
Miscellaneous3

A well-researched book on the region's history, notable families, and minor ley lines. Useful for research and gaining a local foothold.

Grants advantage on one History or Religion check concerning the region when consulted (usable once per day, DM adjudicates).

A compendium of blueprints and notes for small automatons, steamhands, and arcane clockwork. Popular with tinkerers and artificers.

Provides a bonus to DCs of crafting checks to create simple clockwork devices when used as a reference (DM discretion).

A pocket-sized bestiary with hand-drawn plates showing behaviour, hints for tracking, and notes on steampunk-era animal augmentations.

When consulted, grants a bonus to Survival or Nature checks involving animals of the region (once per day).
Miscellaneous1

A portable spellbook made to accept spells written on removable plates; preferred by traveling wizards concerned about theft.

Holds up to 20 spells written on thin metal plates; plates may be added/removed.
Miscellaneous4

A carefully scribed scroll that, when read, casts Lesser Restoration. The handwriting is embellished with tiny mechanical glyphs.

When consumed (read), casts Lesser Restoration. If a creature can't cast the spell, a caster check is required (DMG rules).

A rare and expensive scroll, its sigils glow faintly with embers. Bramblecog keeps this behind the counter, visible only to trusted customers.

Casts Flame Strike when read. Due to its level, only capable casters can use it without a spellcasting ability check (DMG rules).

A commonly requested offensive scroll; the page is rimmed in soot and tiny brass filigree.

Casts Fireball when read. Spell saved DC and attack details follow the normal rules.

Three 1st-level scrolls bound together that focus on nature-warding sigils written by a firbolg circle. Commonly used to protect camps or calm animals.

Includes 1x Entangle (1st-level variant), 1x Speak with Animals (ritual), 1x Purify Food and Drink; each is single-use when read.
Potions1

A clear red potion in a small vial corked with a cog-stamped seal.

Heal 8 HP
Miscellaneous1

A brass-and-lens apparatus with tiny adjustable magnifiers and a low, softly ticking focus wheel. Designed for scholars, watchmakers, and those with poor eyesight.

Provides +2 to Investigation or History checks when examining small text, mechanisms, or fine detail; grants advantage on Perception checks to read faded runes in daylight-equivalent lighting.
Miscellaneous1

A vial of ink that reveals faint cartographic features when brushed across a map and exposed to moonlight.

Reveals hidden natural landmarks or one ley line intersection on a valid map when used (DM adjudicates exact effect).
Miscellaneous1

A set with glue, thread, small clamps, and tiny gears used to repair or rebind books and some paper-based magical items.

Grants advantage on one check to repair a book or scroll when used by someone proficient with artisan's tools (bookbinder's tools).
Miscellaneous1

A worn map depicting the local steam-rail lines and several faintly marked ley nodes. Useful for travel or planning heists and repairs.

Contains annotations about weak points in supply trains and suggested safehouses (DM may use for plot hooks).

Shop Atmosphere

Bramblecog speaks in a slow, deliberate voice and occasionally forgets to finish sentences, as if the end of each thought is held by a tiny brass cog inside his head. He waters the shop's potted moss every afternoon at exactly three bells and insists on wrapping purchases in recycled book pages. He will give a modest discount (5–10%) to customers who bring him seeds, rare inks, or broken clockwork parts for his 'research'. He prefers being addressed by given name rather than titles and will hum softly while working on repairs.
