Weapons3

A balanced utility knife with a ring pommel and a broad enough blade for cutting rope, hide, and spoiled provisions.

A stout ash-handled club made from a cooper's mallet head. Iron hoops reinforce the striking face.

A compact shortbow sold to caravan guards, hunters, and warehouse watchmen. The grip is wrapped in tarred cord.

Miscellaneous1

Straight-grained arrows with waxed fletching and blunt practice heads mixed into every tenth bundle.

Armor2

A padded gambeson reinforced with leather strips and treated against damp. Common among caravan hands and dock guards.

AC +11

A round wooden shield faced with thick hide. Its metal rim bears the stamped mark of the Iron Coopers.

AC +2
Potions2

A common healing draught purchased in bulk from licensed apothecaries and stored in padded crates.

Heal 2 HPRestores hit points when consumed. The red liquid smells faintly of cherries and copper pennies.

A pungent herbal salve carried by coopers who work around splinters, rusted hoops, and rough timber.

The salve grants advantage on the next Constitution saving throw made to resist infection from a mundane wound, at the DM's discretion.
Miscellaneous11

A palm-sized clay pellet packed with harmless colored powder and a slow-burning wick.

Produces dense colored smoke in red, blue, green, or yellow. The smoke can signal allies or mark a wagon route.

A practical travel kit assembled for people who expect roads, rain, broken axles, and locked doors.

Packed for wagon crews and travelers. The satchel has waxed seams and an iron-reinforced base.

A durable wooden flask made from narrow barrel staves. It is favored by scouts, teamsters, and discreet couriers.

The interior is lined with a thin silvered glaze that keeps strong spirits from soaking into the wood.

A black grease blended with beeswax and river clay. The guild sells it to wagon crews, locksmiths, and anyone asking too few questions.

The salve masks ordinary mechanical noise but does not defeat magical alarms or intentional listening.

A thumb-sized block of reddish sealing wax used by merchants who need to reseal crates or correspondence without attracting attention.

Creates a temporary duplicate impression of a simple nonmagical seal if pressed while soft. It cannot reproduce magical properties.

A compact recordkeeping set intended for tally clerks, caravan leaders, and adventurers mapping unfamiliar ruins.

The slate and wax tablet can be wiped and reused. The charcoal is mixed with a trace of lampblack to remain legible in damp tunnels.

A thick candle made from tallow, beeswax, and a mineral salt gathered from the old drainage tunnels.

The flame is steady in ordinary wind and remains lit for 1 round after being submerged in water.

A plain gray sack stamped with a faded barrel hoop. Useful for carrying goods through rain, mud, or drainage passages.

The treated canvas keeps contents dry during rain or brief immersion, but it is not airtight.

Hardy provisions intended for wagon crews and tunnel workers. They are filling, salty, and nearly impossible to mistake for fine cuisine.

Iron-Cooper rations include hard biscuit, smoked sausage, dried apples, and a small packet of salt.

A practical guild token useful to travelers with cargo, though possession of one may draw questions from guards or rival merchants.

The token has no value outside affiliated guild yards and is void if bent, filed, or visibly altered.

A small paper packet of pine resin, vinegar crystals, and dried river mint. Favored by smugglers and sewer workers for masking cargo odors.

The odor can cover the smell of blood, spilled alcohol, or damp stone. It does not conceal a creature from scent-based magical effects.

Where The Take Sits

The shop's apparent stock is spread across the public warehouse floors, but the most valuable goods are divided between the counting room, the shopkeeper's office, and a concealed compartment beneath the tasting vault. A hidden service stair connects the public floors to the lower storage levels and old drainage tunnels. The Iron Coopers rely on locks, ledgers, trained staff, and control of the wagon lifts more than on obvious traps.

Security Check

Dexterity (Thieves' Tools), with Wisdom (Perception) useful for locating concealed compartments
DC 15

On Failure

A failed theft attempt triggers a concealed bell connected to the counting room and wakes the night watch. The thief has one round to flee before two guild veterans arrive, followed by the shopkeeper and a trained mastiff. If the attempt occurs near the lower storage vaults, the guild also seals the wagon lift and alerts the gate authorities, treating the party as suspected smugglers.

Merra Vask

HumanGuildmaster and former caravan masterLvl 7

Shop Atmosphere

The Hall of Hoops is a general store only at street level. Its public counters sell practical supplies to travelers, but every purchase is quietly recorded by guild clerks. The fortified warehouse complex overlooks Leidon's southern gate, and its walls are reinforced with old barrel hoops that hum faintly during heavy rain. The shop smells of sawdust, lamp oil, smoked meat, wet stone, and sharp spirits from the tasting vault. The owner, Merra Vask, is a broad-shouldered human woman in her early fifties with iron-gray hair braided around copper beads. She is a former caravan master, missing the tip of one finger from a wagon accident, and speaks with the calm certainty of someone accustomed to settling disputes before they become fights. Merra is welcoming to honest customers, suspicious of adventurers who ask about the lower levels, and unusually generous with credit when she believes a party may become useful to the guild. She knows which public doors lead to the old drainage tunnels but refuses to discuss the blocked chambers beneath the complex. Her staff includes tally clerks, barrel repairers, two veteran guards, and a scarred mastiff named Hoop. The shop's custom items are practical guild goods rather than battlefield treasures, and at least half of the stock consists of standard adventuring equipment or commonly available D&D 5E weapons, armor, ammunition, rations, and healing supplies.
